About
My goal is to make every client feel like a star and the most confident version of herself. I’m truly obsessed with makeup and the beauty world, and I’ve been growing my business for over 10 years.
I love sharing honest, practical tips about makeup, beauty routines, and skincare so you can feel beautiful long after our appointment. The industry is always evolving, and so am I—regularly attending master classes and learning from top international and celebrity makeup artists.
If you’re looking for a passionate, detail‑oriented artist who stays on top of the latest techniques and products, I’d love to work with you and create a look you’ll be excited to show off.

Susanna was fantastic to work with! I hired her to teach me some makeup tips and tricks to help me feel more confident doing my own makeup. She was patient, non-judgemental, and a great teacher. She offered some product recommendations for things I didn’t have in my collection but we mostly utilized what I brought in my makeup bag so that the look was repeatable. I’d happily work with her again!

Susanna is a phenomenal makeup artist. She made herself available for last minute appointment for costume makeup for me and my partner. Her talent, warmth, and professionalism not only produced excellent results well beyond expectations, but also made it great fun in the process. Will definitely book Susanna again!

Susanna is AMAZING!!!!! I came to New York for a concert and I was looking all the city for a makeup artist (with a reasonable quote for night event and not wedding makeup). I think Susanna does wedding makeup, but I don’t believe she charges the same price.
Unlike other makeup artists, they charge the same price for wedding or night out makeup. I LOVED MY MAKEUP (stayed on all night) and would definitely recommend Susanna as an artist. Bonus: The studio also has an option to book a photographer for a photoshoot, so if you get your makeup done, book a session as well to get glamorous shots.

Susanna was not rushed and gave me the time I needed. She is a true artist and has a talent for hair and makeup. She was easy to talk to and welcoming. She said she constantly learns new trends and it seemed to be her goal is to make her clients happy. I’d use her again! Thank you Susanna!
