Hello, Beautiful!

Read some love and kind words from a few of the wonderful women I've worked with.

Anne LaFollette, Designer, Illustrator and Mixed Media Artist

"Sydney did the makeup for my Branding/Headshot day and it was perfect. I'm very self conscious and don't want to look overly "done up". Her personal and professional approach was exactly what I needed. I felt beautiful and natural and really just like ME only better! And I have AMAZING headshots to show for it.

I highly recommend Sydney for 3 reasons: 1) She listens! She does your makeup for YOU, 2) She is incredibly knowledgeable about the products she uses, and 3) She is a pleasure to work with and her passion is contagious!"

"Sydney has done my makeup, recommended makeup products for me, and helped me purchase my makeup kit. She did a phenomenal job on my makeup both for a live event and for a photo shoot. She's able to capture your natural essence and enhance, so you feel like "you" but more polished and vibrant.

She has an amazing knowledge of beauty products, especially green beauty, and has been a wonderful reminder that those little touches of self-care go a long way in creating confidence and self-love! She also taught a workshop for our community on green beauty that was informative, fun, and such a positive experience. It's a joy to work with Sydney and see her passion and beauty radiate in her work. She is the epitome of beautiful, inside and out!"

"When Sydney did my makeup, I was surprised by how light and natural it felt. When I've had my makeup done in the past, it felt heavy and cakey. Not only could my skin breathe, but it looked amazing! Just the warm, smokey, bronze-toned look I was hoping for.

I can't reccomend her highly enough!"

Florence Choux Livingston, Interior Designer

"I had a wonderful consultation with Sydney for green beauty products and make-up. I'm very picky about what I put on my skin and always go for the most non-toxic products I can find but there are many options out there and trying different products can be costly and very time consuming.

Sydney is quite knowledgeable and passionate about green beauty and she had clear suggestions tailored to me and my lifestyle. During the consultation Sydney went over each step for my morning and evening routines and knew what products to recommend. She had researched, tried and used all of the products that she talked about.

After the consultation she followed up with a detailed written plan describing each step and the recommended products as well as options on where to purchase.

I've been on my new routines for a few weeks now and I love every step, the products are perfect for me and my skin. Sydney is lovely and a pleasure to deal with, I highly recommend her, your skin will thank you."

Julie Caralucci, Chief Operations Officer at The Hivery

“ I don’t like the feeling of a heavy film on my face which is why I don’t like to wear makeup, but for this specific event, I knew there were going to be pictures taken so I asked Sydney for some help.

While she was doing her magic, I kept saying repeatedly, ‘not too much. I have to have this on all night.’ I was shocked when I looked in the mirror and saw how flawless my skin looked! It felt like I had just washed my face! The most surprising thing was that the photos taken at 2 am looked just as fresh as the photos taken at 6 pm. I am now open to wearing makeup on a daily basis as she has taught me that the right makeup feels light and comfortable.”
