I’m Melanie Sanniola—a professional makeup artist and licensed esthetician based in Northern New Jersey, serving clients throughout the tri-state area and beyond.
My style is all about timeless beauty—that elevated, “you but better” glow that celebrates your natural features without masking them. I believe great makeup starts with great skin, and I’m passionate about creating looks that feel like you—refined, radiant, and confident.
I’m trained in skincare through Christine Valmy International School and have studied makeup artistry under industry experts including Michela Wariebi, Jamie Rae, Kevin James Bennett, and Megan Garmer.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to represent brands like Estée Lauder, MAC Cosmetics, and the Coty family of brands. I’ve also worked with creative teams behind Brooklyn Fashion Week, Eryc Taylor Dance Company, KidSuper, 2(X)IST, Jaqlin Medlock Photography, and SJR Photography.
Whether we’re prepping for your wedding, a shoot, or a major event, I thrive in a collaborative environment. I take the time to consult with you, understand your vision, and design a custom look that brings it to life. If you’re not sure exactly what you want yet—don’t worry. That’s what I’m here for.
My goal is always the same: to help you look and feel your absolute best.
