About
Hi, my name is Afra, and I am the owner of Makeup by Afra. I am 34 years old, cheerful by nature, and believe beauty should feel effortless rather than complicated. From a young age, I have had an eye for recognizing beauty in everything, and a desire to enhance it even further. I am a perfectionist at heart, which naturally led me to the world of makeup artistry. I began my professional journey as a Sephora Certified Makeup Artist in 2016 and freelanced for several years out of passion. In 2021, I became NYMUA certified, and that same year, my work was featured at New York Fashion Week. My goal is to provide exceptional, personalized service. Together, we will create a look that enhances your natural beauty, regardless of age, skin type, facial structure, or personal style while ensuring you feel confident, empowered, and truly yourself. My portfolio includes makeup and hair styling for business and branding photography, bridal hair and makeup, and individual clients. No matter the occasion, my approach remains the same: to bring joy through my work. When my clients shine, it genuinely fills my heart.

I cannot say enough amazing things about this makeup artist. From start to finish, the entire experience was beyond professional and truly exceptional. Not only did she listen carefully to exactly what I wanted, but she elevated the look in a way that exceeded all my expectations. Her attention to detail, skill, and creativity really stood out, and you can tell she genuinely cares about her clients. She took her time to make sure everything was perfect and made me feel completely comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. What really sets her apart is how she goes above and beyond—whether it’s making last-minute adjustments, offering helpful suggestions, or ensuring everything lasts all night! I received so many compliments, and I felt absolutely amazing. If you’re looking for someone talented, reliable, and passionate about what they do, I highly recommend her. I will definitely be booking again!
