About Janelle Lynn Makeup Artistry

Janelle Hostetter

Bridal Makeup Specialist

I am a mobile freelance makeup artist serving Lancaster, Pennsylvania and beyond. My specialty is in creating an elegant timeless look that allows your natural beauty to shine brightest on your special day. When you choose me as your makeup artist for your occasion (as I hope you do!), I want you to know that you are choosing an artist and friend who sees your intrinsic beauty. I pay careful attention to use makeup in a way that softly illumines your existing features, causing your true beauty to shine forth. When I hand you the mirror, I want you to feel the best version of yourself, rather than a completely different person.

I listen to your unique vision. I want to hear it all, because your vision excites me! While I will offer my professional opinion, I will always lend a careful ear to yours. If you are unsure of the direction you want to take for your makeup look–that’s okay! I will ask the necessary questions to help you discover your dream look. At the end of your makeup application, I will ask you to share with complete honesty your likes and/or dislikes of the finished look. I will then make the changes we’ve discussed, if any, until we accomplish the look you had envisioned, or perhaps even better! Your satisfaction is my highest priority–guaranteed.

No. I never had the knack for styling my own hair, so I never explored doing others. Plus, I prefer having a single focus on my clients’ wedding day. However, I work with hairstylists at every wedding and am happy to refer them to you.

I would describe my style as “soft glam looks that are natural, romantic, and timeless.” I strive to enhance the existing beauty that is already within each woman. I never desire to cake on makeup or alter her natural features. If my client desires a full-coverage foundation, an extra smoky eye look, or some added glitz and glitter, that doesn’t scare me–but I won’t go overboard.

Although I love a soft smoky eye with a nude lip, I especially enjoy creating looks with vintage or bohemian influence.

I offer traditional makeup, as well as airbrush makeup application–at an additional cost. If you have no clue the differences between the two, or are unsure which route to choose, that’s okay! We can talk about which may be the best option for you.

The majority of my work is bridal, so for bridal services, I do travel on-location (travel fees may apply). I also travel on-location for styled shoots. For non-bridal clients, I prefer to provide services in my home studio in Lancaster. With that said, I do make exceptions if necessary.

Yes, and I actually require one for my brides. It is our chance to get acquainted with one another and is a crucial step toward perfecting your makeup look for your big day.

loved my wedding make up
Janelle made me feel and look so beautiful on my wedding day. She was so incredible to work with! We had a trial, and I absolutely loved it. Then, on the wedding day, I wanted to make a few small changes, and she was able to do exactly what I asked. I loved it! She is kind, nice, and truly listens!!! She was responsive throughout the entire process, and I couldn’t have been more grateful. Thank you, Janelle, for being such a huge part of the most important day of my life!!!!!
