Look Stunning. Feel Like Yourself.
Professional Makeup
Artistry meets skin care expertise. Beautiful, long-lasting makeup that enhances your natural features and treats your skin with respect.
Makeup by a Skin Care Expert
What makes professional makeup at Simply Faces different from a department store counter or a typical makeup artist? Jeannie is an aesthetician first. She understands skin at a fundamental level: its structure, its needs, and how products interact with it. This means your makeup application starts with proper skin preparation, uses products that complement rather than compromise your skin health, and delivers a finish that looks flawless in person, in photographs, and at the end of a long day.
Whether you are preparing for your wedding day, a milestone birthday, prom, a professional headshot, or simply want to learn techniques for your everyday routine, Jeannie approaches each session as a collaboration. She listens to what you want, considers your features, skin type, and the occasion, and creates a look that makes you feel authentically beautiful, not like you are wearing someone else's face.
Every makeup session begins with thorough skin preparation. Jeannie cleanses, moisturizes, and primes the skin before any color goes on. This attention to the canvas beneath the makeup is what separates a truly professional application from a surface-level one. The result is makeup that wears beautifully, photographs impeccably, and feels comfortable from start to finish.

What to Expect
Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup. If you have reference photos or a specific look in mind, bring them along, as they are helpful for establishing the direction. Jeannie will begin by prepping your skin with a cleanse, moisturizer, and primer suited to your skin type. She then builds the look in layers, checking in with you throughout the process to make sure you love the direction. For bridal clients, she recommends scheduling a trial run two to four weeks before the wedding to refine the look and ensure it is exactly what you envision. The full application takes about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the complexity of the look. You will leave feeling confident, camera-ready, and completely yourself.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I get a facial before my makeup appointment?
A facial a few days before a big event can give your skin an incredible base for makeup. However, avoid aggressive treatments like extractions or chemical peels within 48 hours of your makeup appointment, as your skin may still be sensitized. A hydrofacial or dermaplaning session three to five days before is an excellent combination for the smoothest, most radiant canvas.
Do you do bridal trial runs?
Yes, and Jeannie highly recommends them. A trial run lets you experiment with the look, make adjustments, and walk away feeling completely confident about your wedding day makeup. Book your trial two to four weeks before the wedding. Bring your veil, accessories, or any reference photos you love.
What kind of products do you use?
Jeannie uses a curated selection of professional-grade makeup that is chosen for both performance and skin compatibility. She avoids products with known irritants and selects formulations that are long-wearing, photograph well, and are appropriate for your skin type. If you have allergies or sensitivities, let her know in advance and she will adjust her product selection accordingly.
