About

Allison DeWald is an accomplished make-up artist in New York. Her formal training started in New York City where she studied with Make-Up Designory(( maybe we could make this a link where they can click to see what make-up designory is)). While studying at Make-Up Designory she excelled in Beauty, Fashion, Character, Air Brushing and Special Effects Make-Up skills. After several months of schooling she continued to live and work in NYC as a freelance make-up artist specializing in photo shoots and runway make-up.

Allison's passion lies within Make-Up it does not lie within NYC. Upon her return to Western New York she started her career with the highly coveted professional make-up brand MAC Cosmetics. Allison was with MAC Cosmetics for several years as manager where she hired and trained all working MAC artists. She attended countless training sessions with MAC Cosmetics that heightened her skill level, while mastering current trends. Due to her expertise and high skill level Allison was afforded opportunities to facilitate and lead training initiatives to other make-up Artists. Allison achieved numerous professional certifications within MAC Cosmetics, which ultimately honed her skills to what they are today.

Today Allison is working in the greater upstate New York area as an on location free lance make-up artist. Her specialty lies within bridal make-up, however she still takes part in frequent photo shoots with photographers and still has regular requests for prosthetic and special effects make-up. Allison is affiliated with several salons in the greater upstate area, which offer many hair and other salon services. This allows bridal parties the convenience of having all services in one place. Allison's passion ultimately lies in providing her guests a memorable experience that leaves them feeling pampered, beautiful and heard.

I had SO many compliments on my wedding day

Allie is PHENOMENAL. She took pride and care for my makeup wants/needs and how it would match my dress & style of wedding. I don’t usually wear makeup and Allie gave me a glam look that met my natural features. Tiffany was part of her team and she was amazing with my bridal party as well. Highly recommend for your wedding or any special occasion!

Hire her. Now.

Allison is an absolute gem to work with. My mother, sister and I all got our makeup done for my wedding and she was so fun to even just be around. She has an incredible vibrant personality that is infectious, and her work is so incredible. She had done my trial for my engagement photos and I was just stunned by how she made me up, but I still looked like me. Allison did an amazing job on all of us and makes you feel at ease throughout the entire application. She got my mom to wear false lashes (which my mom has never done and LOVED them, as she was worried she would notice them on; she didn't), and knew without anyone saying a word that my sister needed to wear glitter eye shadow (my sister loves glitter beyond words). And then there was my makeup, which was just perfect - she was even so excited about what she did for me. My husband could not stop gushing about how beautiful I looked. All of our makeup held the entire night (which I knew it would, as it had held up in 90 degree heat on my engagement photo day). And how my makeup looked in my photos - so incredible. Hire her now, you will not be disappointed!
