Professional Event Makeup Artist in Charlottesville VA–Creating Timeless Beauty for Events & Special Occasions
Flawless, Long-Lasting Glam for Every Special Occasion
Looking for a professional event makeup artist in Charlottesville, VA? At Glam by Duaa, we specialize in creating stunning, long-lasting makeup that enhances your natural beauty for weddings, parties, photoshoots, corporate events, and other special occasions. Every makeup session is tailored to your features, skin tone, outfit, and personal style, so you look confident, radiant, and camera-ready.
Our goal is not just to make you look beautiful, but to give you a makeup experience that feels effortless, relaxing, and fun. Whether you desire soft, natural glam or bold, dramatic looks, we create a style that complements your personality and event.
My Work
I believe that beauty is not one-size-fits-all, and makeup shouldn’t be either.
Every face, every culture, and every bride deserves a look that feels authentic to who they are.
As a makeup artist and hairstylist, I customize every look based on your features, skin type, personal style, and cultural background. I don’t recreate the same glam on every client, and I don’t apply one cultural style across all brides. South Asian bridal glam, Western bridal beauty, Middle Eastern elegance, and African American bridal makeup are all distinct, and I honor those differences in my work.
I’ve had the privilege of working with brides of every ethnicity, every skin tone, and every skin type, and it’s something I truly love. Whether you’re White, Black, Middle Eastern, Asian, or from a multicultural background, your glam is thoughtfully designed to complement you, not fit you into a mold.
That diversity, experience, and attention to detail is what defines my artistry.
