Say hello to your new bestie, Donna…

Hi there! I’m Donna, makeup junky, coffee lover, nap taker and your new bestie! My passion for color started early—sneaking lipstick from my granny’s vanity and dreaming up colorful looks before I even knew what contouring was! A self-proclaimed “color addict,” I took a bold leap from the structured world of healthcare into the dazzling, high-energy universe of professional makeup artistry twenty two years ago—and I’ve been painting the world more colorful ever since!

Color isn’t just my passion—it’s my expertise. As a Certified Color Consultant with Style By Color, I was personally trained by the iconic Shari Brandel, one of the first 50 color analysts in the U.S. I’ve also mastered the 16-color analysis theory under the guidance of Tatum Gangi, known as “The Color Analysis Queen”. With a deep understanding of color’s power, I’m here to help you curate a palette that enhances your natural beauty and elevates your style effortlessly.

As a previous MAC Pro Artist, I’ve worked magic in fashion, print, and beyond, bringing my signature touch—flawless skin, perfectly blended colors, and a truly customized look—to every client I meet. On top of that, I have trained and worked with top beauty brands such as Stila, Bobbi Brown, and Laura Mercier. And with a background in healthcare, I have an eye for detail, a deep sense of professionalism, and a steady hand that ensures every brushstroke is pure perfection.

When not creating stunning looks, you’ll find me exploring the great outdoors with my family, hunting for vintage treasures with my best girlfriends, indulging in Mexican food and anything chocolate-related, and loving life with my husband of 36 years. I am the proud mom of two amazing daughters and their wonderful husbands, who keep my world as vibrant as my makeup palettes. And let’s not forget the real rulers of the house—Loretta Lynn, the sassy beagle with a diva attitude, and Oscar Mayer Wiener, the cat with a name as big as his personality!

Life is colorful, and I wouldn’t have it any other way!
