About

Makeup should always be about accentuating the natural beauty of every client. Not about masking it! Together we will explore the endless possibilities that makeup has to offer. Can't wait to bring your dream looks to life. My mission is to enhance each individual's natural beauty. Bringing out the best features in everyone who sits in my chair.

With experience in makeup application ranging from weddings to evening, photo shoots to makeup education and production. My goal is not only to make each client feel beautiful but to educate them as well. I have learned that the one cardinal rule we all live by as women is that we want to look timeless, elegant, and beautiful. It is this rule that drives my signature makeup application. Offering classic looks with a modern twist that never go out of style. Recently published in the 2020 Edition of Mariage Québec.

The absolute BEST make up artist!

I truly had the most amazing experience with Mary as my make up artist for my wedding day. Not only is she incredibly talented with make up, but she is so kind and patient and flexible with handling so many different people and personalities in a room.

As someone who never wears make up, she made me feel so comfortable and I trusted her completely to make me look not only my best, but also looking like myself for the biggest day of my life. I have never felt so amazing as I did on that day and I really have to thank Mary so much for being such a big part of that.

Hire her. She’s the absolute best.

10/10 experience!

I had such a wonderful experience! I was part of a friend's wedding, and from the moment I sat in the chair, I felt completely at ease. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she's also so kind, funny, and made the whole morning such a fun and relaxing experience.

Her knowledge of makeup is amazing—she really knows what works for different skin types, features, and styles. She listened to exactly what I wanted and created a look that felt like the best version of me. My makeup stayed flawless all day and night!

I couldn't recommend her more highly. If you're looking for someone who is both exceptionally skilled and an absolute joy to be around, she's the one!

The Greatest of All Time MUA

Mary was absolutely incredible. Not only did she do my make up for my wedding and for my bridal shower AND make me feel absolutely gorgeous, she also made my mom and my bridesmaids feel amazing too. Do yourself a favour and hire her. She listens to exactly what you want and knows exactly how to make your natural beauty shine. I will absolutely be going back to her for all my events as she is not only incredible at what she does, she is also an amazing human being. Thank you for everything, Mary!

Incredible

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mary did my makeup for my sister’s wedding and she was absolutely incredible. I was honestly nervous because I’m usually very particular and often worried when someone else does my makeup, but she completely exceeded my expectations. It was flawless, lasted all night, and made me feel so glamorous and confident. Her recommendations were spot on and she really understood what would suit me best. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Do yourself a favor, hire Mary

Mary made our beautiful wedding day come to life. She provided an excellent and professional makeup service for my bridal party (4 people + the bride). Not only does she give a great professional service, she personalizes and tailors it to the needs of the people she works with. Organizing with her felt like a breeze. She was easy to contact and very responsive. The day of the wedding, she came all the way to Beloeil (45 mins outside of Mtl) to do our makeup, was there on time and ready to rumble. In terms of the quality of the makeup, her look held for 16hours during a 27 degrees October day! All the women in the bridal party got compliments on their looks. I cannot emphasize how great working with Mary was. Everything went seamlessly.

Fantastic make up lesson with Mary

I am getting married at my remote family cottage and unfortunately will not be able to bring in any vendors, so I reached out to Mary with a request to do a makeup lesson where we could work on a bridal look together that I could recreate myself for my wedding. It was a great collaborative experience where she worked with makeup I already have while recommending a few new products that would add to my look. We filmed little segments while she gave clear instructions that I will be able to look back on the day. Highly recommend for any brides doing destination weddings or anyone just looking to learn a bit more about makeup. Loved the natural look we put together, felt elevated but still 100% me.

Perfect makeup & day

Mary made me feel comfortable from the day we met. She offered to do more trials, but I was happy after just the one. In the e months leading up to my wedding she was always available by phone to answer questions my wedding party had & provide me with recommendations on products I may want to have throughout the day. On the actual wedding she was so fun & professional—a great addition to our group. She made every lady, including the moms, feel so comfortable. We all have different styles, and she made each lady look & feel beautiful. I highly recommend her, especially if you are looking for a more effortless look. She’ll never make you look over done, just enhanced. She’s a wonderful person & very talented.

The BEST makeup artist!

Mary is AMAZING! From the first moment that we met, she made me feel supported and heard. I only had a vague idea of how I wanted to look on my wedding day, and she came through and made me look and FEEL like I was the most beautiful woman alive! I rarely wear makeup, and once she did her magic, I still looked like me and not like I was wearing a mask.
She is not only the BEST makeup artist one could choose, but one of the most wonderful women I have ever met!

Feel like a million bucks on your day!

Mary made me feel like the most beautiful bride. She took my suggestions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. As someone who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup, when I looked in the mirror for the first time I was blown away. She enhanced my natural looks and made me feel glam. Mary is a true professional and I could not recommend her more for your special day!

Amazing Makeup

Mary did my makeup several times as a bridesmaid and it was always perfect. I knew I wanted her to be my makeup artist for my own wedding. We did a few trials because I was unsure of what I wanted. She was very patient, listened to me and offered me guidance. My makeup for my wedding was gorgeous, stayed on all night despite the warm weather and all the sweating from dancing. I could not recommend Mary enough, she truly made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day and I am so grateful for her.
