The most beautiful part of my work will always be the women I get to know.

The Portsmouth NH Halloween parade is a huge event. The whole city comes out to march in the parade. The “thriller” dancers never cease to be a show stopper. I love stopping out of my wheelhouse and making zombies 🧟🧟come to life. 👻👻

Ask and you shall receive. I asked to curate a palate for me that was bridal focused. This is what she sent. It is based on eye color and it has a variety of finishes. Terri is the queen of color theory. This is going to make my world so much…..MORE♥️♥️

A look that’s just as stunning years later as it was that day.

Dr. Brent Ridge and Josh Kilmer-Purcell on Entrepreneurship thank you for sharing your journey. I remember this time and all the anxiety. Truly inspiring.

products are always in my kit. I love them because they are effective and great for skin prep. They play nice with all makeup products. They are formulated with goats milk so perfect for sensitive skins. We can’t have a bride and her party suffering any reactions on their big day!
Also great for daily skin care as some@products have active ingredients.

These kind heartfelt words brought such joy to my day. Molly .of.molly thank you. I am deeply grateful ♥️♥️

Joanne — where do I even begin! Your warm, comforting presence and incredible talent are unmatched. You made everyone feel as though they were wrapped in a warm hug that ended with a beautifully elevated face of makeup — bringing out each person’s natural beauty in the most stunning way.

I’ll never forget when you were doing my wedding makeup — you reminded me to breathe and gently patted my back to calm my nerves, and it truly worked. You went above and beyond, walking around to each of us for touch-ups and making us feel like stars for the day. Your kind, engaging conversations show your passion for truly getting to know the person in your chair — and for highlighting not just their external beauty, but their inner light as well.

Thank you for being you, and for making me feel like the most beautiful woman on my wedding day. I can’t wait to continue booking with you for future milestones. Thank you, Joanne!
