Me, but elevated
I found Bianca through Instagram originally, and was immediately drawn to her bridal makeup philosophy that is skin-forward. As someone who takes care of my skin but doesn't use makeup at all, I wanted that to be reflected in my bridal look. I simply told Bianca that I wanted to look like myself, but an elevated version. She coordinated flawlessly with my long-standing esthetician to build a skin care plan in the three months leading up to the wedding so that my bridal look could achieve that. She also perfectly executed the vision of my bridesmaids and our moms; everyone was thrilled with their look. Bianca also brings a phenomenal team of hair and makeup artists with her, who made everyone feel beautiful and cared for on the day. In the middle of hair and makeup, the hotel fire alarm went off, and Bianca, Rocio and Maria handled it like pros. Because we were already ahead of schedule, I had no concerns about delays and they remained on schedule despite having to go down five flights of stairs in the middle of getting folks ready. Bianca and her team operated with the highest levels of professionalism and care and they made me look my absolute best on the day. You all were amazing, and I'm so grateful we found you!

Hire for a truly pampering Bridal experience!
From the moment I found Bianca’s IG via my wedding planner (Occasions by Sandy), I knew I had found my makeup artist for my wedding day. She is so versatile in her makeup styles but simply nails the glowy, naturally elevated version of YOU thing. She listened to my requests so well both during the trial and actual day. She also avoided anything I mentioned I didn’t like without judgement or question. Bianca is super professional, punctual and an all around joy to be around for your service. I felt truly pampered and taken care of on my wedding day while in her care. She used high quality products that didn’t irritate my skin or feel heavy. My mom and Tia also received makeup services from her and absolutely adored their looks. Please hire Bianca, you’ll thank me later!

My sister found Bianca on Instagram, and booking her for my May 2026 wedding was hands down the best decision I made during the entire wedding planning process! As someone who rarely wears makeup, I've always hated getting my makeup professionally done for weddings because it never felt like me. Bianca completely changed that. She really listens to what you want and enhances your natural beauty rather than making you look like someone else. I felt like the best version of myself. She did makeup for every member of my bridal party, and every single person said it was the best they had ever looked and felt for a wedding. Not one bridesmaid was unhappy—which anyone who's been in a wedding knows is nearly impossible! I truly had never felt more beautiful or confident than I did on my wedding day. I also used Bianca for facials leading up to the wedding, and she gave me amazing skincare advice that had my skin looking its absolute best for the big day. The hairstylist she recommended was also incredible, and together they made the entire getting-ready experience so smooth. Beyond her talent, Bianca is just someone you want around on your wedding morning. She has such a calming, fun, positive energy that made the whole morning even more enjoyable. So many people have asked me for her contact information after seeing our wedding photos, and I recommend her every chance I get. If you're looking for a makeup artist who will make you look and feel like the most beautiful version of yourself, book Bianca. You will not regret it!

Literally Glowing :)
Working with Bianca at Lara Skincare Studio was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She did two facials leading up to the day and my skin felt absolutely glowing when I walked down the aisle. On the wedding day itself, Bianca did my makeup plus four of our VIPs, and everyone looked stunning with a natural but elevated look that felt like the best version of ourselves. Beyond her technical skills, what really stood out was how flexible and supportive she was throughout the whole process—she made us feel taken care of and genuinely excited about the day. Bianca is such a fun person to be around, and the fact that she makes her own tea blends shows how thoughtful she is. We couldn't have been happier with her work and would absolutely recommend her to any couple looking for a beauty professional who actually cares.

Highly recommend!
I worked with Bianca for my wedding and had an amazing experience! I wanted a very matte look because I usually get very oily quickly, and she delivered. My skin looked perfect all day and night! I got so many compliments about how well it lasted. I also got a facial with Bianca before my wedding and it was so nice! I highly recommend booking with Bianca!
