A glimpse into the look I created for the gorgeous ! Durana's skin is truly incredible and it makes all the difference in how the makeup turns out. She's all about radiance and glow! I kept the rest of the look monochromatic.
A few key products I used this time around:
stobe skin tint, Dior forever skin glow, powder
Happy Friday!!!
Just sharing a little insight into how I approach makeup ✨
Makeup shouldn’t be the first thing people notice when you walk into a room.
My approach is rooted in enhancing your features and natural beauty, so you are what people see first.
I focus on creating looks that feel effortless, refined and true to who you are.
The goal is always for you to feel elevated, confident and beautifully yourself 🤍
2025 HIGHLIGHTS
From weddings and bridal events to engagement photo shoots, birthday celebrations, baby showers and so many special gatherings in between . I’m endlessly grateful to every person who trusted me to be part of their special moments this year.
THANK YOU for allowing me to help you feel confident, beautiful, and like the best version of yourself for life’s milestones, both big and small. 🤍
I’m also incredibly GRATEFUL for the talented makeup artists and hairstylists on my team! 🫶🏼
Here’s to more memories, milestones, and magic in the year ahead . ✨
There’s nothing quite like a wedding morning—the joy, the anticipation, and the excitement before it all begins.✨
Our team had the joy of creating beautiful makeup looks for this gorgeous bride and her bridal party. Each look was customized to enhance their natural features while ensuring everything lasted flawlessly from “I do” to the dance floor.
I also stayed on site for touch-ups, which is such an important part of the day—keeping the bride feeling confident, refreshed, and picture-perfect through every moment, from the first look to golden hour portraits 🤍
Thank you Ashley for your trust in my team and I!

I recently received these wedding photos from this gorgeous bride and couldn’t wait to share ✨
For her look, we focused on enhancing her natural beauty with a soft, radiant glam that would photograph beautifully and last all day.
Her bridal makeup included:
• Flawless, luminous skin with a natural matte finish
• Softly sculpted eyes with warm tones to bring out her eye color
• Individual lashes for definition without overpowering
• A neutral, peachy-pink lip to tie everything together
It’s always an honor to be part of moments like this—where the goal is to help a bride feel like the most elevated version of herself 🤍

Glam for the cover ✨💄 I had the absolute honor of doing makeup for my best friend for this powerful Modern Luxury Vegas feature — and wow, did she DELIVER. Beauty, brilliance, and boldness all in one.
From her visionary leadership to her fearless style, Durana is redefining what power looks like — and I’m beyond proud to have been part of this moment. We went for a look that was elevated, radiant, and as unapologetically fierce as she is.
Here’s to glam that empowers, stories that inspire, and every woman owning her light. 💋🔥

My beautiful cousin .ruiz got married !!!
Here is a glimpse of the look we created for her.
BRIDE’s request: The goal was to still look like the best version of herself.
I think we achieved that goal! She’s naturally beautiful but it’s always important to not overdue it by wanting to incorporate unrealistic makeup trends that people see on social media.
This type of look is a favorite of mine to do on brides and what I consider a natural bridal look.
