With cutting edge film and photography highlighting every blemish and pore, makeup artistry has never been so important. Once I hit the mid-20s, wedding fever began and my face has never been the same. Nicole Palermo came highly reccommended when the first of my closest friends to be wed was searching for a makeup artist. Three years later and 6 weddings down, Nicole continues to send brides (and the forever bridesmaid) down the aisle glowing. And it never fails, each wedding party is met with the tomboy who considers lip gloss makeup to the diva requesting a dramatic, smokey eye. From the natural beauty to the sun-kissed goddess and from a fun peacock eye to a bold red lip, Nicole's artistry continues to take our grooms' breath away. But her finest talent is making every woman feel beautiful even before the blemishes are concealed and the cheekbones are higlighted. She is enthusiatic, professional, attentive, and fun! My only advice: BOOK EARLY- she is highly reputable in the baltimore area. read more

I got to know Nicole by being a chronic bridesmaid. I was speechless when I saw the beautiful job Nicole did for my friend's weddings. I loved the brides makeup, I loved my makeup and I loved ALL the other bridesmaids makeup. She listens to her clients individual wishes and then creates magic. I have been a bridesmaid about 11 times, so I know many girls try to save a little money by doing their own makeup. Every time I have had Nicole as the makeup artist at these events, the girls who said no to getting their makeup done end up getting their makeup done after they see what a beautiful job she has done. They want to look like a hot mama too! I recently got married and naturally had Nicole as my makeup artist. Everyone was asking me what I was going to get done and I said," I am going to let Nicole do what she wants, I completely trust her talent." And I was right in doing so, she made an ordinary girl feel extraordinarily fabulous on her special day!!!!!! read more

Two words......ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! I was blessed with her amazing talent back in October 2007 when I got married. She did my bridesmaids, mother, and myself and we all looked absolutely gorgeous!! To this day, I have never looked more beautiful than the day she made me a bride! I had heard about her on the The Knot and immediately booked her for a trial. I knew right away that she was who I wanted to hire. She is incredibly sweet, super talented, and extremely professional. I would use her again in a heartbeat!! She's so inspiring because she's doing what she loves and it really shows through her work : ) I wish I could just box her up and keep her to myself but then she wouldn't be able to shine her beautiful white light on the world. If you're looking for a makeup artist...look no further. You've found her! read more

I was a bridesmaid in a wedding and had my makeup done by Nicole. She did a fabulous job with everyone, enhancing each person's natural beauty. When I got engaged to that bride's brother, she was one of the first people that I called! I was nervous as she had another wedding the same day as mine, earlier, but was even early to my house and spend as much time as we needed. She felt more like a friend than someone we hired, and I could not have been more beautiful and natural. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to everyone. I loved my look so much that I had her come and do a makeup party for some friends a few months later. She was sweet, caring and a good listener, and made sure I was comfortable with everything before she did it. I am proud that my pictures are on her website - her work is amazing! read more

I found Nicole through recommendations on the Knot. I hired her to do the makeup for my wedding in 2009 and couldn't have been happier. I am not one who regularly wears makeup and I was worried about it being over done, but Nicole understood exactly what I wanted and it came out looking amazing!! My trial was a wonderful experience I really learned a lot. She also works great under pressure. Due to the Baltimore marathon on the day of my wedding street closures downtown delayed everyone from getting to the prep area on time. I was worried there wouldn't be enough time to get everything done but Nicole was calm and cool and got everyone's makeup done with time to spare! She made me feel so beautiful for my wedding!! If you hire her you will not be disappointed. read more

Nicole is AMAZING!!! She is laid back and cool. She creates a relaxing atmosphere for what can be a stressful day of getting hair and make up done before your wedding. I got married in November and had gotten trials done with other make up artists before I met Nicole but when I left after hers I knew that she was the one. All of my bridesmaids looked gorgeous. My mom was skeptical at first but couldn't wait to get her make up done once she saw how great the girls looked. And best of all she came to us at the hotel. We all had a blast. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will not only make you look beautiful but feel beautiful on your wedding day!! read more

Nicole did the makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, and my mom when I got married last May. She traveled to the hotel where we were getting ready and did an amazing job. Nicole is a pleasure to work with and a true professional. After the wedding I met with her to get some tips on how to do an every-day look and received a e-mail telling me what colors and products should be applied where. The follow-up tips were a great help. The makeup that I bought from her was high quality and lasted a long time. I would recommend hiring Nicole for any wedding or special event (or even for just a few makeup pointers to give you self-esteem a little boost). read more

Nicole was absolutely fabulous!! First she was so sweet, friendly, and catering to our needs. Second, she was able to do each of the bridesmaids (8 of us) fabulously and she individualized each person's make-up. She did everything from very natural, to natural with a flare, to bold colors on some of us. Every girls make up looked amazing and it made me feel so pretty! I loved how she did each of our eyes and the eyelashes just make you feel like you are a star! As for the bride, Nicole did an ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL job!!
