About ABC Face

Hi, I am Svetlana - a bridal makeup and hair artist based in Chicago.

Since 2015, I have helped brides feel confident, calm, and beautifully themselves on one of the most important days of their lives. My style is soft, timeless, and personal - never heavy, trendy, or overdone.

My approach

Beauty that still feels like you

I focus on enhancing your natural features so your makeup and hair look refined in person, balanced in professional photos, and comfortable through a long event day. Bridal styling can include skin prep, touch-up kit guidance, veil placement, and a timeline that keeps the morning steady.

Clients are welcome at the Buffalo Grove studio, and on-location service can be planned for homes, hotels, venues, and photoshoots across the Chicagoland area.
