Want to look natural and glamorous for your wedding or portrait session thanks to a makeup artist who cares about your health and beauty?

Hi! I’m Maya. I’m a Montreal born, Toronto based Eco-Beauty Professional makeup artist (MUA). I care about the planet and my clients’ health and since 2006, have been amongst the first cohort of Pro Makeup Artists in Canada, to use 100% clean, safe, non-toxic, eco-ethical skincare and makeup products, on and off the red-carpet.

‘Get Gorgeous’ with me so you can experience *eco beauty at it’s best!

*I begin every eco-beauty session with Kavana, my own handmade, high performance, non-toxic luxury skincare line. Please check it out! The makeup I use is vegan, HD-3D (looks great on camera and on you!) by another Canadian made, and woman owned brand called Sappho.

SERVICES:

I absolutely love collaborating with my clients to create a natural, HD-3D friendly portrait look that resonates with who they are and how they want to come across in photos.

A passion of mine is teaching everyone from teenagers to new moms, to more mature women, how to do their makeup and care for their skin, using natural, organic, non-toxic products and professional techniques.

Need makeup done on-location? Want to learn how to take care of your skin or do your makeup the non-toxic way? Get in touch and get gorgeous! I’d love to hear from you. Connect with me via the GET GORGEOUS button or on IG @mayamakeupTo

Toronto Makeup artist Maya Goldenberg

A rare #BTS of the face behind the faces!

"Maya is an extraordinary makeup artist who has become a dear friend. Each time she does my makeup for an event, I'm amazed by her creativity and talent. Whether we are going for a bold look or something classic, I always feel beautiful in the end. It doesn't hurt that she has the perfect personality to calm my nerves before an event, if necessary! She's truly one of the best and loveliest makeup artists around!"

"As a wedding photographer I know the importance of placing your trust in the hands of professionals on your wedding day - and that's why I just could not imagine my wedding without Maya there to help me look my best! Bringing her to Mexico with me is a decision I am so glad I made. I felt confident and beautiful... and that feeling is just priceless!"
