Freelance bridal beauty work with a luxury wedding brand.
Most bookings happen on-site at hotels, venues, apartments, private homes, bridal suites, and getting-ready locations across New York City.
Portfolio, license, kit, light, and chair details requested
Applicants should be ready to share bridal work, license status, Instagram or portfolio links, kit photos, setup photos, lighting details, makeup chair details, transportation plan, and availability.
We are looking for licensed, license-track, or professionally qualified NYC beauty artists.
Because New York has appearance enhancement licensing standards, applicants should clearly share their license status, training, beauty school status, or professional background. This helps us protect brides, protect the brand, and build a trustworthy NYC artist team.
Why this matters
NYC brides expect a professional, safe, clean, and luxury beauty experience. We want artists who take licensing, sanitation, timing, and client care seriously.
