Hello!

My name is Taryn. I’m an award-winning licensed esthetician and professional makeup artist specializing in bridal makeup. Named Best Makeup Artist and Best Spa for Wedding Prep in the Best of Central & Southwest Virginia Weddings awards two years in a row (2026 & 2027), my passion is helping women feel beautiful and confident.

After graduating from Sylvain Melloul International Hair Academy and operating Milk & Honey Skin Studio in Lynchburg, VA, I relocated to Wilmington, NC. I am so excited to offer my full range of services here in Wilmington. I bring a calming presence, thoughtful care, and a true love for my craft to every client experience.

I’ve been in the beauty industry for ten years, starting at just sixteen. Many of you may remember me doing makeup for prom, homecoming, Sadie’s, and weddings—those early moments sparked the passion that drives me today.

Before dedicating myself fully to the beauty industry, I proudly served four years in the U.S. Navy. That experience instilled the discipline, professionalism, and attention to detail I now bring to every client. Pursuing this career has been one of the most rewarding decisions of my life, and I’m honored to be part of so many of your special moments.

I can’t wait to work with you!
