The most talented in the area!

Choosing to work with Amy was the best decision I ever made! I searched high and low when looking for someone to do my makeup for my wedding day. I have done my own makeup with my favorite/guaranteed products for many years, and am very particular about getting my makeup professionally done. I knew when I found Amy that she was exactly what I was looking for. She is truly so talented and she makes you feel like a bridal beauty. She was so professional, kind, easy to work with, and made me feel so calm and at ease the morning of my wedding. It’s true.. she set the tone for the entire day! At 8 am with all the chaos going on… Amy looked at me and said “take a deep breath… relax” and from that moment on the rest of the day I did exactly that. I was able to be in the moment and feel all the love knowing that I looked and felt my very best! I would highly recommend Amy to anyone in the Wilmington area looking for bridal, bridesmaid/family makeup. We all were so very happy with the results. Despite having a beach wedding and boat happy hour, the makeup lasted all day! We didn’t have to go to the bathroom once for a touch up and were able to be in the moment! If Im ever in the area and in need of a makeup artist, I will hands down not hesitate to work with Amy again.

Bridal Glam of my Dreams

Amy is a delight! She is so incredibly talented and up-to-date with products and bridal trends. I'm a former makeup artist myself, so I knew I needed someone who could bring it--and that she did! I would use her for any occasion or event! And she's great with all skin colors FYI :) Book her ASAP!
