The Creative Directors of your Signature Look
With nearly two decades of experience, Amanda Tomczak is a Los Angeles-based makeup artist known for creating modern, effortless beauty. As the co-founder of Veiled Vanity Artistry, a prestigious bridal hair and makeup agency, she specializes in soft, radiant complexions that enhance natural beauty. Her approach is rooted in skin-first artistry, ensuring every client looks and feels their best.
Beyond her work, Amanda finds joy in life's simple pleasures—live music is her heartbeat, and sharing songs is her love language. She treasures time with her family, especially her almost 3-year-old nephew, whose laughter is one of her greatest joys. A passionate home cook, she’s always experimenting with new recipes and savoring the creative process in the kitchen. And if there’s one thing she’ll never turn down, it’s an ice-cold, crispy Diet Coke.
Amanda’s work is more than makeup; it’s about connection, confidence, and creating unforgettable moments—both in beauty and in life.
