MEET CARINA 🤍

For the past 18 years, Carina Scott has built a career rooted in her love of beauty, artistry, and the belief that true beauty does not transform who you are. It reveals more of who you already are.

A native of Northeastern Pennsylvania, Carina moved to New York City after graduating from Hofstra University, originally pursuing a career in acting. It was there that her fascination with stage makeup evolved into a passion of its own, ultimately leading to a career spanning bridal, fashion, film, television, and commercial work. Throughout her career, Carina has had the opportunity to work with celebrities, models, and leading industry professionals, with her artistry appearing in publications including The New York Times, House Beautiful, and Green Wedding Shoes.

After moving to Saratoga Springs, New York, Carina began focusing more deeply on bridal beauty, which quickly became the heart of her artistry. After years of creating luminous, natural-looking makeup for brides, her passion naturally expanded to caring for the skin beneath it.

Now back in her native Northeastern Pennsylvania, Carina is bringing 18 years of artistry and experience into the next evolution of her career with Carina Scott Makeup + Skin. As a licensed esthetician, she has brought together her two greatest passions, refined makeup artistry and personalized skincare, with a luxury approach that feels elevated, effortless, and deeply personal.

As a proud mother of three, Carina understands the importance of making time for yourself. She created her studio to be a beautiful, welcoming space where you can relax, feel comfortable being yourself, and leave feeling refreshed and confident.

Because beauty is not about becoming someone else. It is about honoring who you are, nurturing the skin you are in, and allowing your inner confidence to shine outward.

Your aura is glowing.
