Specialties
At Makeup by Montsy, I specialize in enhancing natural beauty while caring for sensitive skin. I have extensive experience working with clients who have eczema, acne, acne scars, and skin discoloration — and I take pride in creating a flawless, healthy-looking finish that feels lightweight and comfortable.
My approach is all about skin-first makeup: I focus on hydrating, smoothing, and blending to ensure the makeup looks like your skin — just elevated. I’m highly skilled in color matching, working with all skin tones, and creating soft glam or full glam looks that photograph beautifully and last all day.
Whether you need a confidence boost for a special event or want to feel radiant in your everyday glow, I’ve got you covered — literally.
History
Established in 2010.
I’ve been passionate about makeup since I was a teenager, doing friends’ makeup for dances, photoshoots, and events just for fun. Over time, that passion grew into a craft — and eventually into a career.
In 2019, I decided to take it to the next level and enrolled in one of the top makeup academies in the country, right in San Francisco. That experience gave me the advanced skills, techniques, and confidence I needed to launch Makeup by Montsy as a professional business.
Since then, I’ve been proudly offering makeup services in Benicia and throughout the Bay Area — bringing soft glam, bridal beauty, and special occasion looks to life.
Being able to make people feel beautiful, confident, and celebrated is what keeps me in love with what I do.
