Hello! I am a pro Makeup Artist, with over a decade of makeup experience in bridal, theatrical, commercial, editorial, and film. My goal is to not only excel at exceeding the goals of each individual client, but also to facilitate a positive energy within each space I enter. I am an innovative chameleon, and I pride myself on my love for gaining new skills and techniques. I would love to help you create the makeup looks of your dreams!
Valerie was phenomenal! We hired her to do makeup in our tradeshow booth where we were doing professional headshots for clients and partners. I literally didn't have to worry about a thing - on time, set up and ready to go, brought e'thing she needed and then some, AMAZING with our clients, did beautiful makeup plus hair touch ups on well over a hundred people throughout the weekend, on her feet for several hours each day and still SO friendly and inviting. Would 1000% hire her again, we had the best experience!
Response from Valerie Lou Artistry:
Thank you so much for this lovely review, Amber! It was absolutely my pleasure to help make your event a success!
LOVE LOVE LOVE Valerie!!!! Where do I even start - from the moment I met her, I was immediately at ease. Psoriasis and sensitive skin have made me typically very worried about working with a MUA. However, Valerie’s deep understanding of skin and dermatological issues makes her seriously the best MUA. She is witty, calming and an absolute expert!!
I’ve had the absolute PLEASURE of working with Val on several occasions, and she’s always made me feel like an entirely new person. Her professionalism and friendly demeanor make time spent in her chair a joy. Her skills and experience are easy to see and difficult to reproduce. I’m an AMAB person, and Val has made me feel more confident in my own skin than I ever have before. Anyone who spends time with her will walk away looking and feeling great.
My wife and I, as well as our bridal party, all received make up services from Valerie for our wedding. From the start we felt instantly comfortable with Valerie. She was incredibly kind, accommodating to our needs, and immediately felt like someone I had known for years. From our bridal trial to her services provided on our special day, she was literally like our fairy godmother. I have never felt more beautiful, more empowered, and more listened to than I did getting my makeup done by Valerie. Truly 10/10.
Working with Val was so easy- she was so prepared and professional. Not to mention she is incredibly kind, funny and amazing at her job. I LOVE the way she is able to do all kinds of makeup styles and she does them all so well. My wedding make up was a thick black eyeliner, a rum raisin lip and some nice airbrushing. My wife had much lighter make up since she doesn’t tend to wear any to begin with- she wanted to keep it minimal for her wedding day. The way Val did her make up that day made me gasp and cry at the same time. I’ve never seen my wife with make up on in 11 years that we have been together. She looked absolutely beautiful, remained true to herself and style and her look was SO elevated with the right touches here and there. Val knocked it out of the park with the whole experience for us.
If you want to feel like a queen on your wedding day, hire Val.

I am a native of Massachusetts, who danced competitively for 15 years, where I fell in love with the artistry of makeup and its impact. I am a self taught artist who now teaches baby artists the things I wish I knew about the industry when I started. I love high pressure environments- that’s where I shine! I love swimming with sharks, my infinite amounts of houseplants, and anything purple.
I have my Reiki II certification, and am happy to discuss how this modality of energy work can benefit your events and special days.
