Anita Nouryeh: Makeup Artist

Anita was amazing! She 100% understands what tones work for each person and her calm disposition is a perfect compliment for the craziness of the wedding day!

Anita had done the make-up for my friend's wedding and everyone looked natural and beautiful, so I was so happy that she was available to do the make-up for my wedding. Working with Anita was a pleasure--she set up a trial so I could try out what I was thinking for the wedding, she completely understood what I was thinking in terms of make-up, and she really made me and everyone else look like extra special versions of ourselves. She was also early on the day of the wedding and kept things moving so that everyone looked great and we were on schedule. And Anita is generally a nice person and fun to be around, so getting ready for the big day felt really calm and pleasant. Definitely recommend!!

Anita Nouryeh is a make-up genius! She was able to create the perfect look for all of my bridesmaids and myself. Being a bride of color, I was concerned about finding a makeup artist who would be familiar with my skin tone. Anita did that and so much more! She was able to find the perfect blend of elegant and sexy for my final make-up look. Also, Anita was so understanding and reasonable about her prices. The quality of her work is worth a million bucks, but she understands that most brides work on a budget. So with that in mind, she is open to negotiating prices and for this I was so appreciative. Thank you, Anita for making my wedding day stressfree and beautiful. I will recommend you to any and everyone who is looking for makeup services.

Anita was awesome! I got married on a Sunday morning and let's just say that I am not a morning sunshine so seeing anyone at 5:55am is not my idea of fun. Anita handled it all with aplomb. She was friendly, calm and kept it all moving right along such that I felt really great by the time she finally got to me. She did a fantastic job with the makeup, making each of my friends and my mom look their best and not like copies of each other. And the makeup trial, where she came to my house and did it up, was by far the best part of the wedding planning process.

When i booked a trial for makeup with anita I was a little nervous because I don't wear makeup often and don't feel very comfortable with a lot on... To my surprise I absolutely loved the way Anita did it! I immediately booked Anita for my wedding at the beginning of July. She did an amazing job on everyone that she worked on; myself, my maid of honor, my mother and my boyfriend (now husbands) mother. My mother and maid of honor love makeup (unlike myself) and wear it all of the time... Their makeup was impeccably done and they were very happy with her services. She was patient with all of our requests and took the time to find out what each of us wanted, like and feel comfortable in. IIf you book Anita for your wedding, I know that you will be as happy with her services as I was.

Anita is so awesome!!! I absolutely loved my makeup and thought that all 5 of my bridemaids have never looked more beautiful. Anita is great work with - she allowed my to do 3 trials with her and gave me several samples of lipstick and gloss free of charge. I can highly recommend her!

Anita did my makeup for my February wedding. She is amazing! She really understands how stressful your wedding day is and helps you stay calm. She's a friend. She gives great advice. She's not there to add to your worries. Her work is spectacular. She applied makeup on me and my whole bridal party. We really looked great thanks to Anita. Can't thank her enough!

Anita was, simply put, amazing. Having her advice and help along the way made such a difference in the end -- I really didn't know what I wanted and she really helped me streamline my thoughts. I was thrilled with my look and I know my mom and bridesmaids were as well. One moment that really stood out on the day-of was when Anita, faced with a tight timeline and cranky caterer looking to set up in her space, was able to exceptionally tactfully manage the situation without my being involved at all. Loved her for that. She was great and I'd recommend her to any bride looking for a relaxed, laid-back, but exceptionally professional and talented make up/hair artist. Thank you thank you Anita!

Anita was so patient and flexible with me. I changed my look three times and she accommodated me with three seperate trials, then the day of my wedding we went with something else all together. She made all of my bridemaids look amazing and was able to handle a host of different requests, from very minimal to very dramatic. Also, she was prepared with airbrush for those who wanted it. Having gotten the full day package I felt that the value was exceptional. It was also very nice to have her around for touch ups between all of the seperate events. The makeup looked great even at the end of the night. Would definitely recommend!

Loved Anita. She did a fabulous job all me (bride), my mom, and all the maids... She was super laid back and sweet on the wedding day which was so great in the chaos of everything. She was professional and fabulous to work with. I highly recommend her and would use her again in a second!

Anita was a wonderful makeup artist. She did the makeup for my rehearsal dinner and for my wedding day, and did a great job of creating the two different looks I was going for. She was a very calm presence in the room and made everyone feel at ease. I am not sure how she did it, but my makeup lasted the whole day even though we had a outdoor wedding in 100 degree humid weather! You are a miracle worker Anita :)

Anita did a wonderful job with my wedding day make up! I couldn't be happier considering I am not very comfortable wearing lots of make up. My make up looked natural (but with that touch of extra glamor one can only get away with on one's wedding day) and lasted all day, despite the heat and humidity. Her skill is remarkable and my make up looked very clean. She also provided me with a lipstick and powder kit for touch ups. For someone like me who has never worn false eyelashes before, Anita's confidence is contagious. She made me feel completely at ease at the trial. She is also very responsive and quick in replying to emails and phone calls, which was a major plus since I was planning the wedding from overseas. Thanks so much, Anita!

Anita was great!! She did such an amazing job with my makeup, as well as my bridesmaids and the Moms, and we got tons of compliments from everyone at the wedding! She was also very knowledgable about various products and didn't mind answering all our questions. I did a day-after shoot and she came to my apartment to do my makeup for that as well. I will definitely recommend Anita to my friends for their weddings!

Anita was an absolute pleasure to work with. From day one she made everything so easy. My girls and I looked absolutely amazing on my wedding day and I would highly recommend Anita to anyone and everyone in need of a MUA.

Anita did an awesome job on my makeup for my wedding day! I couldn't be happier, and felt gorgeous all day. She also did makeup for my sister (MOH), mom, and aunt, and they all looked gorgeous. I would recommend Anita to anyone, because she knows what she's doing. When I went in for my trial I didn't have to overly explain anything to her. She saw pictures of the look I wanted and we discussed colors and I ended up with exactly what I was hoping for, and felt beautiful! I really like smokey eye-makeup and she did such a great job with that. She is really friendly and listened to what I wanted. I had gone for trials with two other people previously, and felt I didn't look like myself when they were done. Anita had a great balance of doing my makeup extra special for my wedding, while not having it look overly done. She arrived early and worked calmly and quickly even though I had about 15 family members getting ready at my house that day. Even though my mom, sister, and aunt hadn't done a trial, Anita was able to look at their dress colors and skin tones and came up with the perfect makeup colors for them immediately. She was very attentive to any slight adjustments we wanted to our makeup, so working with her was fun and stress-free. I was so happy that I found her. Her talent and professionalism helped make my wedding the amazing day that it was!

Anita was extremely sweet and professional and worked to acheive the look I wanted for my wedding day. I would recommend her to anyone.

I had my wedding at the Chelsea Pier and she came their to do my makeup. She really made me feel so calm on my wedding day and did such wonderful work. I also hired her for all the bridesmaids and mothers and they were so thrilled with their makeup. The wedding party only had great things to say about her and everybody at the wedding commented on how great we looked. She was also very professional and personable at the same time. A highly recommend her!!! Also, I forgot to note that she was really flexible in using all natural products b/c I was pregnant and on an all natural kick.

Anita did my makeup for my wedding as a last-minute substitute for Sally Duvall, who I had originally booked but was sick on the day of my wedding. No offense to Sally, but I am so glad she was sick - Anita did a killer job. Anita really understood my complexion and coloring and also the look I was going for - all of this without ever having done a trial. She asked me a few questions and set to work. When she was done, I was blown away: I looked dramatic yet not overdone and essentially just a better version of my made-up self. Not only did I feel and look amazing, but I got so many compliments, even from my DJ, who sees hundreds of brides each year. I would give Anita 10 stars if I could. I also really recommend her for women who are Indian or Middle Eastern, as she really understands what colors to use with those skin tones (I'm of Indian descent).

Anita did a terrific job at my wedding and I highly recommend her. She was attentive, punctual and gave me exactly what I had requested - my makeup was polished but natural looking, and it lasted throughout the evening. I was even happier with the results when I saw my photos. Anita is also really nice and low key - a real pleasure to work with.

Anita was great!
