From Canvas to Masterpiece!
Makeup is art intended to reflect one's inner beauty, which is what I do!
I am a professional makeup artist and instructor certified by Makeup Studio Amsterdam and New York Makeup Academy. I have over 15 years of experience in bridal, fashion, film, TV, and face and body paint.
I am passionate about my work, and I use a process that I call LET (listen, educate, and transform) with my clients to ensure they enjoy every moment of their journey together.

She was absolutely amazing! I was looking for someone to accommodate early hours. She responded within a few hours and made time work for me. She did both my hair and my makeup. She has amazing energy and it was great to spend my morning with her. Myself and family will be using her services again in the future.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Rania, my hair and makeup artist! She did an absolutely amazing job with my wedding makeup and truly helped make the day feel so special. From the beginning, I could tell how much she genuinely cared about making sure I looked and felt perfect for one of the most important days of my life.
She paid attention to every little detail and took her time to make sure everything was exactly right. I felt so beautiful and confident, but still completely like myself. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and takes so much pride in her work.
I’m so grateful to have had her be part of my wedding day. She didn’t just do my makeup beautifully—she helped make the whole experience even more memorable. I would recommend her in a heartbeat! ❤️

Rania is masterful at what she does! She arrived early, did my hair and makeup, and intuitively knew what would look best on me. She is also such a lovely person, and I truly enjoyed getting to know her.

Rania was awesome to work with and will use her again! She was awesome to talk with and laugh with and she did a phenomenal job! I received more compliments and my husband who usually says I have too much makeup on, complimented me all day and two days still talking about how beautiful I looked. Thank you Rania -

Rania was an absolute dream to work with! From the moment she arrived, she brought such a warm and positive energy that instantly calmed my nerves. She did both my hair and makeup for my wedding day, listened carefully to what I wanted, and made me feel like the best version of myself — confident, radiant, and so happy. We laughed, had fun, and everything stayed completely stress-free. She finished right on time, and my hair and makeup held up perfectly through the whole day and night. I couldn’t imagine my wedding morning without her!

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I follow the LET (Listen, Educate, and Transform) approach to ensure every client has an exceptional experience. I begin by listening closely to your needs to understand your vision. Next, I offer guidance, tips, product recommendations, and hands-on instruction tailored to your unique style and preferences. Finally, I work on transforming your look, delivering flawless makeup application, or empowering you with new skills, ensuring you feel confident and beautiful. My commitment is to provide a customized experience that truly enhances your natural beauty.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have three degrees: graphic design, business management, and Makeup Artistry. I am one of the very few Makeup Artists/instructors with a cosmetology license.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
It has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I developed it with time, starting with my doll as my first client 😂, then my siblings and neighbors, all the way to earning my certification and becoming a professional makeup artist/instructor. I have worked with many events, TV personalities, bridal, fashion, etc.
