Testimonials

Magda has been doing my make up for over 8 years for events, TV segments, parties - she’s the best of the best. Magda is beyond professional, kind, loving and her talent is unparalleled. Magda’s creativity and skill set span from simple and clean to super fun and edgy. I love it all. She learns what my skin needs to have the ultimate make up - lasting as long as I need it to. She goes above and beyond. I recommend Magda to everyone.

-KARINA HEINRICH

Magda is my absolute favorite makeup artist. I typically hate to have my makeup done, as it feels heavy and I do not look like myself. I typically end up wiping most of it off afterwards, but when Magda does my makeup, I feel like myself, only so much better. She has a way of doing natural makeup that just makes you feel more beautiful. She is also so wonderful and a pleasure to be around. I recommend her to all of my friends and choose to use her for any makeup needs!

-SASHA ADLER

I have had the pleasure of hiring Magda to do my makeup for multiple occasions and every time I looks like a better version of myself. She is very intuitive and has such an easygoing personality that the time flies by. She is one of the THE BEST artists in Chicago and you can do no wrong by hiring her.

-MARY NISI

I loved working with Magda as she's super intuitive with her craft, which I find to be a unique experience when getting your makeup done. She knew exactly what I wanted, even when I didn't :) I've had very few experiences where I've gotten my makeup done and liked it but when Magda did my makeup for my wedding, it was the first time I had my makeup professionally done and LOVED it. I have never felt more beautiful and cannot recommend her enough. She also did an amazing job with my mom and mother-in-law who wanted barely any makeup. Magda did just the perfect amount and they were so happy with the results. She's super easy to work with and really brings a calm energy to the day.

-JENA GAMBACCINI

I’ve used Magda as my makeup artist for over 10 years, and she isn’t just a talented makeup artist. Magda is warm, calm, patient, honest, prompt and reliable. She has an innate ability to highlight your prettiest features without overdoing it, but she’ll follow your lead and make your makeup as subtle or as wild as you’d like while making sure you look your absolute best.

-LAUREN BUXBAUM
