Athena is the best!!! I haven't seen any other that can do better. I was so pleased with her work for my wedding. Not only is her work soooo amazing but she's also fun to work with. She gets the job done while making you feel comfortable and she does it in a professional manner. Athena, I can't thank you enough for the wonderful job you did. My wedding day was perfect and you were one of the reasons why it was an unforgettable day. Btw, thanks for being patient with all my emails : )

It was my pleasure meeting and working with Mr. and Mrs. Paquette. They are such as a cute and sweet couple who are both working on their MBA at Stanford University. I am so proud of them. Wish you best of luck in school and life Lindsay.

2009 Bride 's Choice Award

On Feb, 2009. I was excited when Artistry by Athena Makeup Artist have been chosen to receive a 2009 Bride’s Choice Award! This award recognizes the top 3% of vendors from the WeddingWire Network who demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value of cost and flexibility.

Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the company, the Bride’s Choice Awards are determined exclusively by recent newlyweds through surveys and reviews. That means Athena's past clients have spoken on your behalf and chosen me for this honor





All the artists from Artistry by Athena would like to thank our past clients for speaking on our behalf and helping us win the 2009 Bride’s Choice Award!

Airbrush Makeup

Here are some information about Airbrush Makeup.
Airbrush makeup is sprayed on through an air compressor as a fine mist of color gently covers the skin, giving the appearance of a flawless complexion. Spraying microdots of makeup that rest on the surface of the face looks more natural than traditional makeup because it isn't rubbed into the skin and doesn’t exaggerate the pores. This process allows the Airbrush makeup to conceal better while enabling your skin to breathe.

The advantages of airbrushing are that it gives the illusion of a flawless complexion, yet it’s lightweight. When applied by a trained professional, there should be no pancake feel to it and no lines. Blending is seamless. Scars can be camouflaged, too. Tattoos can be hidden temporarily, and freckles can be banished for an evening out on the town.

Best Regards,
Athena U
San Jose Makeup artist
