Gave Beauty

Gave Beauty is an on-location wedding makeup service based in North Arlington, New Jersey. Owner and artist Nadine Gave specializes in HD airbrush makeup, and works with clients throughout Northern New Jersey.

Why she suits LGBTQ+ couples

The business is LGBTQ+-owned. Airbrush makeup is chosen for a natural, lasting finish, which suits anyone who wants to look like themselves, polished, rather than heavily transformed.

Her background

Nadine has more than ten years of experience in the beauty industry. She holds a cosmetology license and trained at a recognized makeup school, and has worked in editorial and fashion, though wedding beauty is her focus.

What to expect

• HD airbrush makeup for a natural look
• On-location service at your getting-ready space
• A focus on makeup that lasts through the wedding day

Preparing for your makeup

Book a trial before the wedding and bring photos of looks you like and dislike. Wear the clothing neckline you plan to wear on the day so colors can be matched. Tell the artist about skin sensitivities and products you avoid. Plan the order of appointments so everyone is ready before photographs begin.

Where she covers

She travels across Northern New Jersey from her base in North Arlington, in Bergen County. Share your location and the number of people who need makeup when you enquire.
