Why I chose this industry, At 24, I was diagnosed with psoriasis, and at one point, it nearly covered my entire face. It was an incredibly challenging time, and my confidence took a major hit. Makeup became more than just a routine—it was something I could lean on, a tool that helped me feel more like myself again. That experience sparked a passion in me to help others feel the same sense of confidence and comfort in their own skin. I became a bridal makeup artist to enhance natural beauty in a way that feels authentic and empowering. Later, I pursued esthetics to dive deeper into skincare, helping others achieve healthy, radiant skin from the inside out. Whether through makeup or skincare, my goal is always to make my clients feel beautiful, confident, and truly themselves. MEET CRYSTAL, Hi, I’m Crystal, the face behind CDH Makeup Artistry & Esthetics! I’ve been a professional makeup artist since 2018, specializing in natural bridal makeup that enhances your unique features while making sure you feel comfortable and confident on your special day. Recently, I expanded my passion for beauty by earning my esthetician license from Aveda O’Briens Institute in Williston, VT, allowing me to help clients achieve glowing skin leading up to their big moments. Born and raised in Vermont, I can’t imagine living anywhere else—I love the beauty of every season and the sense of community here. When I’m not perfecting complexions and creating timeless bridal looks, I’m embracing my creative side through photography, knitting, and writing. I’m also a mom to three amazing kids and a fluffy Ragdoll cat named Lakota, who may or may not think he runs the house. Oh, and you’ll almost always find me unwinding with a hot bath and a good thriller novel! I believe beauty should feel effortless, authentic, and true to who you are. Whether you’re preparing for your wedding day or looking to invest in your skin, I’d love to be part of your journey.
