About Us
At Vision by Meli, we believe beauty is a reflection of the soul. We don’t chase trends — we listen to your story and translate it into a look that feels effortless, elevated, and uniquely you. From first touch to final spray, we offer a grounding, calming experience that supports you before the glam even begins.
We are deeply committed to delivering looks that last — and service that uplifts. Our products are hand-selected for performance and skin health, and our techniques are tailored to your individual features, ensuring you feel stunning on camera, and even more powerful in person. Every brush stroke is guided by empathy, precision, and professionalism.
We believe that magic happens through collaboration. Vision by Meli partners with top-tier planners, photographers, and creatives throughout Northern and Southern California to ensure a seamless, luxurious experience from first inquiry to last photo. When you work with us, you’re not just booking a makeup artist — you’re gaining a trusted beauty partner.
