Amanda Pepin is a multi-award-winning makeup artist, hairstylist, and FX specialist with over two decades of experience in the beauty and film industries. Known for her precision, creativity, and ability to transform vision into reality, Amanda has spent the last 10+ years working on set in film and television. Her most recent work includes Baron’s Cove and Midnight, where her eye for detail and deep understanding of character development brought every frame to life.
Twice named Connecticut’s Best Makeup Artist of the Year, Amanda has also earned recognition as a top lash artist in the state. Her work has been featured on fashion runways, in editorial spreads, and on screen—ranging from natural beauty to full FX transformations.

Whether she’s creating subtle beauty looks, building out creatures and wounds, or collaborating with actors to bring characters to life, Amanda is known for her calm presence, thoughtful execution, and deep passion for her craft. Every brushstroke is intentional—and every client, model, or actor leaves her chair feeling seen, supported, and ready to shine.
