Makeup Matters Inc.

Melissa recieved her makeup artistry certification in 2000. She went straight to work at an upscale beauty boutique as lead makeup artist.This afforded her the opportunity to broaden her skills through local fashion shows and special event makeup application. It was at this time she discovered her fondness for wedding makeup.


After a hiatus to start her family, Melissa decided to return to makeup artistry and founded Makeup Matters Inc. Her company provides on-site makeup services to brides and their attendants. With an eye towards quality, she uses only the finest products from brands such as Dior, Cargo, Laura Mercier, Stila, Nars, Becca, Makeup Forever and MAC. Traditional or airbrush foundation is available. Her style is best described as timeless, refined beauty. She adores creating flawless skin whilst capturing that bridal "glow", emphasizing the eyes and balancing the look with a soft, kissable lip.



Continually upgrading her education to offer the greatest level of service to her brides, Melissa has taken makeup workshops in New York City and looks forward to becoming a certified facialist in March 2009.
