Now based in the Boston area after 18 yrs in Los Angeles, 3 Emmy nominations, multiple VIP clients (and NDA's); so much about who I am & what I offer is wrapped up in the influence of the entertainment industry, sunshine culture, & the range of looks born out of both.
My time spent working with celebrities, high profile VIPs, top tier brands & fashion magazines has helped me develop not only a tasteful eye, but also a unique ability to provide a nurturing, cooperative, profoundly attentive service that's all about making the person sitting in my chair feel like a star.
When I think of West Coast aesthetic & LA vibes, I think glamour (both soft and full), timelessness, Celebrity, Red Carpet magic, glowing skin (that looks like skin), Bronze Goddess, natural beauty, highlights, sheen, health & wealth, chic sophistication with an edge, effortlessness (that actually takes time to achieve), fashion forward, trend setting style, laid back beauty...
I'm Celebrity Makeup Artist Amy Strozzi, bringing West Coast aesthetic to the New England market.

QUICK FACTS
OVER THE YEARS
2003
Moved to Los Angeles
After living in both Boston & NYC, I made the move to sunny Los Angeles to pursue Makeup Artistry & learn from the top Celebrity artists of the time.
2006-2013
SYTYCD, Live TV, Cat Deeley & Emmy Noms
Countless flights, makeup designs, dance routines, laughs & 3 Emmy Nominations later; leading the makeup dept on So You Think You Can Dance & acting as Personal Artist to host Cat Deeley was a huge factor in developing my resilience under pressure.
The Beauty Manifesto 2008-2018
Exploring My Love of Beauty Shoots & Product Play
The Beauty Manifesto was my beloved personal project where I got to experiment with new products, spend 1:1 time with gorge models trying fun looks & musing about my discoveries.
2020
Relocated Back to New England to Be With the Love of My Life
...and his sweet 8 yr old daughter.
If you meet me, you'll hear this story; it's a good one.
1.
I spent the majority of my career in Los Angeles working with Celebrity clients for their important events - this includes Red Carpet moments, Award Shows, press days, travel jobs, & photoshoots. The other 20% of my work was collaborating with contemporary brands like Reformation, AG Jeans, & Nike; additionally shooting for well known fashion magazines & beauty brands. My aesthetic reflects my past experience; & is inspired still by West Coast, NYC and European editorial sensibilities.
My aesthetic derives from my Red Carpet & Editorial Background
2.
I always do my best to help my clients feel amazing; inside & out. I pay attention to their mood, vibes, & personal needs & do whatever I can to respond to them in kind, usually a step ahead. I check in throughout our session to make sure you're feeling comfortable & gorge, & if we have an extended time together I’ll make sure you’re hydrated, nurtured, covered with good vibes & superior shine control! I want everyone who sits in my chair to be glad they did.
Our Experience Together is All About YOU
3.
Bringing good vibes to a room is key. My extensive experience with Celebrity/VIP clients has helped me develop a calm, cool, reliably grounded energy no matter the circumstance. Years of working with top level talent teams, as well as running my own artistry team for a live TV show (while simultaneously tending to the host), helped prepare me for smooth sailing in high intensity environments & the ability to peacefully manage any type of personality or demand with grace and ease.
