Monique is both a consummate professional and an exceptionally talented makeup artist. Monique brings her own creative energy every time she does my makeup. She always delivers style and imagination with a beautiful manor. I have had my makeup done by her so many times that I lost track, and each time I absolutely loved my look she created for me. From vintage, retro, modern to natural, she has impressed me each time. She also gives great tips on how to look after yourself too! I would absolutely recommend Monique as a truly professional, creative makeup artist. Definitely book her for weddings, proms, parties or even just a night out on the town. You will feel amazing after her magic touch!

I have gotten services from Makeup by Monique Nicole on several different occasions, all of which I recieve countless compliments and look stunning in pictures. The services provided by this talented artist are nothing short of amazing; on top of airbrush make-up and fabu-lashes, Monique Nicole also provides you with a consultation. The consultation is not only for the make-up you get done that day but she helps you in general with everyday wearing make-up. I have a very difficult time using most make-up because I have very sensitive skin and eczema but with the help of Makeup by Monique Nicole and the personal consultation she gave me, I know feel much more confident about wearing makeup. She helped to teach me how I can duplicate the look myself at home adn even advised me on what kind of make-up is best for sensitive skin! I use Makeup by Monique Nicole for every important/formal/semiformal/ event or even just a night out with the girls. Her services will leave you feeling every bit as beautiful as a celebrity! I recommend Makeup by Monique Nicole! Try it out and you'll never go to someone else again!!

I have consistently received excellent Services from Makeup by Monique Nicole. I have a hard time matching my skin color without having a garish line of make up demarcation but she got it right the first time! Not only that but she helped to teach me how I can duplicate the look myself at home. Of course she did a better job than I ever could and I will definitely be using her for my upcoming wedding and on all of my bridesmaids! I have recommended her to my friends for photo shoots and their own weddings too. I highly recommend using Make Up By Monique Nicole!

Monique is very talented and has a great eye for what looks best on each individual person. Before applying the makeup, Monique has a thorough consultation with you which makes you feel confident that you will receive exactly what you are looking for. She knows which technique and colors will compliment you. Whether you want something soft and natural or something dramatic and extreme, Monique is able to make you look incredible.

FAQs

How did you get started doing this type of work?
I have always loved everything hair, makeup, art beauty! My mom and grandmother are stylists so I grew up surrounded by the beauty industry. I had several other interests as well so I went to college and pursued a bachelors degree in Family Services. Helping people has always been important to me but after graduating college, I couldn't get the idea of doing makeup out of my head so I headed to makeup school in sunny south Florida, soon after moved back to NY and then decided to pursue hsir as well. I love it. I get to make people feel special on their most important days.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I have worked with all types of customers from brides, to prom girls, and their families to professional models.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
My advice would be to ask the makeup artist to show you examples of their work. If they have no pictures then something is wrong. Also, price is not the most important thing when looking to hire a makeup artist. In most cases you get what you pay for, so if you hire an artist just because they are cheap chances are they do cheap work. Ask your potential artist several questions. What kind of makeup do you use? What are the benefits of this sort of makeup vs other makeup? How long will the makeup last for? They should be knowledgeable about the service that they provide. Also look for someone with a good reputation. Makeup artists are known for being sort of "flakey." Make sure the person that you are considering is a professional and act likes one and shows up on time. One more thing I would recommend before hiring a makeup artist is to schedule a trial. If you need your makeup done for your wedding, test out several artists before the big day!
