My experience with Ms. Julie T, as my artist for my brows was beyond excellent! The location of her business was easy to find. As soon as I walked into her business, it smelled and looked fresh and clean. This is very important to me when I am walking into a business to receive any type of service. Her technique was impressive and most importantly, PAINLESS! My overall experience was fantastic and I am looking into receiving more services from Julie in the near future. I highly recommend and vouch for Ms. Julie T!!! read more

It took me years to decide to get a permanent brow makeup because I was scared that the result would not look good. This shop, specifically Julie the owner, was highly recommended by two of my family members, who I really trust. I am so impressed by Julie's knowledge of her craft and her professionalism. During the pre-appointment process, Julie requested that I provide information regarding my desire and goal for the permanent makeup. It reflected how detail oriented she is and it demonstrated how carefully she plans for each client's personal service. During my appointment (5/18/23) I observed how clean and cute her salon is. Julie was so prepared and ready for me. She was eager to perform my eyebrows' enhancement. Her hands are gentle. I actually fell asleep while she was working on my eyebrows. After a couple of hours lying down on her comfortable salon table, oblivious of the discomfort on my face from the whirring needle , she asked me to check out the results of her work, and voila! I saw the new me reflected on the mirror. What an incredible work of art by Julie. I think I look five years younger. The brows look just how I've wanted them to look. Julie also provided me with aftercare kit which I am using for healing. So far no issues and I am healing fast. Julie is amazing! I'm a satisfied and a very happy customer. read more

I had the pleasure in having Julie work on my brows. I had previous work done by a different person, unfortunately she closed shop before covid. My brows were starting to fade and I needed someone else badly. My bestfriend actually got her brows done by Julie, she came highly recommended. Upon meeting Julie, she came off super professional. She's very kind as well. She made me feel comfortable. She did a fantastic job. I originally had my brows only microbladed but Julie did a combination. I have to say, the machine portion of it was much more easy to get through than I thought. I am in love with my brows. I am going to schedule my first touch up soon to fill in any spots that didn't take :) read more

Getting my eyebrows done had been something I researched over a long period of time. After all, it is your face and not something to take lightly. Adoure Beauty was recommended by someone I knew. I had followed her work via social media for over 6 months. I was really happpy with her work and am day 5 post service. I appreciate Julie's attention to detail. She takes her time, and her years of experience as a MUA only adds to her credibility. I enjoyed getting to know her and look forward to coming back for my touch-up and permanent eyeliner :) read more

I first went to Julie for henna brows - which I loved but I was still hesitant to take the plunge into microblading- after a few months I finally did it, and my only regret was not doing it earlier! Julie is friendly and professional - not to mention a magician in her craft - I have since gone back to get powder brows and lip shading done and I am loving the results. Her eye and attention to detail is amazing and her results are really natural. I go for my touch up in about 6 weeks but I'm so happy with the results after 1 week! She understood I wanted the no makeup - makeup look and I think she delivered! read more

Julie is amazing! She was punctual, friendly and knowledgable. I got my eyebrows micro-bladed and lips blushed. She took her time and made sure I was comfortable and not in pain.

My mom recently got her brows done with Julie and to say that my mom loves her brows is an understatement!! She is beyond ecstatic with how they have turned out. My mom first got her eyebrows done back in 2014 with another artist and unfortunately that experience was not the best for her. Since then she has wanted to try and get her brows done again but always expressed hesitation because of her first experience. After some research and referrals we came across Julie and her amazing work. Upon showing my mom tons of Julie's work on older clientele my mom finally decided to make an appointment. On the day of my mom's appointment I went with her for support as she was nervous about the procedure. I was very impressed with how knowledgable and how informative Julie was. She explained what kind of results my mom could expect and why her brows would look the way they did at the end of her appointment. Julie was so kind and patient with my mom as she had lots of questions and wanted clarity on after care procedures. The healing process for my mom's brows were just as Julie explained. My mom wanted her eyebrows to look as natural as possible as she has little to no brow hair. She also wanted them to look timeless and age appropriate, and Julie did just that!! Julie is an exceptional artist!! She does amazing work and is so kind. Thank you Julie, for the first time ever my mom is so excited to show off her new brows! read more

I recently booked with Julie and as always I am impressed with the quality of her work. She is always working to perfect her craft and stays up to date with the newest developments, techniques and products in the industry. I have been going to her now for almost 2 decades and can't wait for my next service read more

Julie is so talented! I had her lip blush treatment and I love the healed result! As a microblade artist myself I am extra picky but everything about my experience was perfect. From her pretreatment instructions to postcare everything was explained and clear. She is a delight to be around and made me feel totally comfortable. The treatment itself had minimal pain! Yay! She pays exceptional attention to detail and I'm so happy with the color and shape! Thanks Julie!!! read more

This was my first tattoo and i felt safe and comforted during the whole process!! She was amazing and checked up on me and had clear directions which reassured me. I will definitely come back again! read more

I have very naturally thin eyebrows so I went in for a microblading consultation. Julie attentively listened to how I currently feel about my brows and what I wanted my ideal brows to be. I wanted my brows to still look like my natural ones - just better! She kept in line with my natural shape but made my brows fuller and darker. Due to my thin hair, she suggested I do a bit of shading as well, to make the blading blend in better at the ends, instead of looking so sparse. It was the right move and I completely trust her judgement. My eyebrows look and feel amazing. If you're thinking about getting your brows done, I highly recommend Julie. I'll be going to her in the future for all brow work and touch ups. Thank you Julie! read more

Julie was fabulous! Julie is a kind and gentle soul and an incredible artist. She heard everything I said, and implemented it flawlessly. She gives detailed instructions about before care ( read it and Do it), and aftercare. She sets appropriate expectations about the experience both during the visit and what will occur in the next hours, days and weeks. I highly recommend her. read more

Julie has been an extreme pleasure to work with, from start to finish! Booking an appointment was easy and thorough. She made sure to ask the right questions so that expectations are set properly. After my first appointment, Julie noticed that my left brow was not taking the henna pigment as well as the right brow (due to previous PMU) and offered for me to come back to do a touch up for free. The next day she redid both brows and her technique to use a darker shade on the left brow, worked great! Julie has all the right tools, knowledge and passion to take care of your brow's needs! Can't wait to come back again for henna brows and hopefully PMU, once I'm not pregnant and or nursing! read more

I went to Julie after a long search for someone who does the eye brows in a color and shape that I liked.

Absolutely Ahhhhhmazing!! Julie has given our faces the confidence to match!!! She took her time and was so patient with the whole process. We have seen Julie's work ok so many of our friends' faces and so we were so happy to be part of the eyebrow gang! Thank you Julie!! read more

Where to begin!! I had very botched lip blushing -- umm, really botched -- and did not know where to turn! I was honestly to the point of hardly looking up as I just didn't want my "grandmother's coral lipstick color" lips to show! Note I'm 57 so you can imagine the coral + aging ... disaster! Really awful! Then I found Julie! Cue songbirds!! She was amazing from the first call to meeting, to our session! She is an absolute color wizard and in one session transformed my lips from hideous to a much softer pink! I am no longer embarrassed and actually love my lip blushing now! On top of her talent as an artist, her studio is cute, comfortable ... great karma and perfect playlist! If you are on the fence or facing your own fiasco, call Julie NOW! You won't be disappointed! Five stars are not enough!! read more

Great work. Had the initial process done came back for the touch up. Happy with the results

So I recently got my brows micro-bladed by Julie. So this review is going to be from the perspective of getting brows micro-bladed as a straight male. First all the basics: Does it hurt? No not really, I've never gotten any tattoos prior, so wasn't sure what to expect. It did not hurt at all, depending your pain tolerance you may even be able to just fall asleep! How's the recovery like? Pretty straight forward, just don't sweat and apply some ointment once morning/night and before showering. If you're super active then the thought of not sweating for 7-10 days might seem daunting as personal goals must be set aside, but this is a great time to switch gears into other aspects such as just deep stretching, especially passive stretching so no sweating will elicit. Why I did it and should you do it? So the thought of getting my brows bladed (when they were never shaped, plucked or anything of the sort prior) took me the edges of some internal resistance. Mostly some fears surfaced of what others may think, and will I end up looking feminine? So two factors: I decided to go through with it because I wanted to try it out and have it be solely my decision whether I like it after having tried it. I wanted to get them originally because I noticed that brows play a huge role in communicating emotion, not sure what I mean? Try looking at Mr or Mrs potato head without any eyebrows and figure out what they are feeling. Secondly, Julie did an excellent job of shaping my brows according to my goals (masculine and natural/full). They look very natural, I've honestly looked closely into the mirror just to see where the microblade start/end in comparison with my actual brow hairs and I can't even tell, thats how natural it looks. Something that Julie does in order to get an edge closer to naturalness is each stroke/blade mark is unique and they're not all uniform. A lot of bladers only do the uniform look and while I can't speak for what women like, I think a 100% exact look (which Julie can do upon request) isn't what I wanted, in my opinion it looks too artificial. So how did it turn out? It turned out great! My brows look masculine, natural and was exactly what I wanted. Long story short: I highly recommend Julie if you're thinking about getting your brows done, you'll be in very good hands; pre, during and post process. Especially if you're a guy and on the fence! read more

I am so pleased and happy with Julie's Lip Blush service! I am relatively new to the area, so I have to rely on reviews for beauty services, and I have to say, the reviews are on point: Julie is amazing! To begin, the atmosphere at her studio is inviting, relaxing and artistically pleasing. She was wearing the coolest color on her lips and that made me feel excited about getting my Lip Blush. Right now my lips are going through the healing process, and its going great! I have minimal scabbing because Julie was adamant at how important the after care is, so I was making sure I followed all the instructions she gave me. Although my body has a tendency to swell and bruise and I know that, with her after care instructions my swelling was down before the 48 hours and my lips are healing perfectly. I cannot wait to see her again to do my Combo Brows, and to do my Lip Blush touch up as well. If you are like me, and are not sure where to go, please book with Julie, you won't be disappointed!

I'm writing this review with a warm heart, about my eyebrow journey that has ended in pure joy and excitement since starting with Julie at Adoure Beauty I had a botched microblading experience with a different company and searched out someone who could help me fix my situation I had spoken to many different companies, but no one made me feel comfortable or they didn't sound confident in their work Then I came across Julie and her company Adoure Beauty She was so kind and patient explaining the procedure ( on a week night at 9:00 p.m.) no less!!! She explained the procedure I would go through I was in a state of despair because of my face, and she let me talk. I had to wait six weeks to see her but in between that time every question that I had I would write her and she would answer me straight away I'm in the process of fixing my eyebrows with Julie and I am so happy and confident again when I look in the mirror. Julie is not only in the process of removing my botched eyebrows she will be the one that will do my micro blading when we are done with this process I'm also happy that I have booked myself with her to do permanent lip color for the first time Julie made me feel comfortable the first I enteted Adoure.... I had so many questions, and she explained every detail of what would take place during proceedure. It was all so easy and painless. I am grateful I met her and beyond excited about beautiful eyebrows Having someone work on your face is a huge decision, and a trust factor I got lucky.....I met Julie read more

Julie is very professional and detailed in her eyebrow sculpting! I highly recommend Julie. I had had permanent eyebrows tattooed in 2012, but they had faded significantly. She did a fantastic job on my eyebrows and I'm very happy. Here are some photos to see the progress read more

Julie Taing is a TRUE brow artist. I got my eyebrows microbladed 3 years ago, and she did wonders correcting my shape. What I highly recommend about her is that she listens to what her clients want and she gfdoesn't just follow the same stencil for everyone's face. Her extensive background experience as a makeup artist carries over into her eyebrow artistry skills. She follows the natural shape of your face so that the finished product looks natural, but finessed. I tried the henna procedure with her twice, to make sure I really liked the shape she could accomplish. Both times I absolutely loved my brows, so I fully committed to the ombré brow procedure (combination microblading + shading) and I've never been happier with my brows. As a gift, I booked Julie to do henna brows on my sister-in-law for her wedding. She was really happy with the results, and even her own sister and mother were so impressed with Julie's work they booked her the same week right before the wedding. Goes to show, Julie knows what she's doing!! read more

Julie did my brows a few years ago. Love her work. Very professional. Highly recommend her.

Julie is a master at what she does! I wasn't quite ready to take the plunge with microblading, so I booked a brow henna session with her first. Not only did my henna brows turn out great, but she was also able to answer and address any questions and concerns I had about microblading. I knew after our meeting that I would be in good hands with Julie. Putting on a full face of makeup is not part of my daily routine. Julie listened to exactly what I wanted, taking my lifestyle, hair and eyebrow color, and skin type into consideration, to design the perfect, natural brows for ME. You can see in my before and after photos, what a huge difference nice eyebrows can make for your everyday look. Julie is not only a brow artist, but she also has years of experience as a makeup artist. This experience is invaluable when it comes to picking a brow artist because you know she's not using some stencil to create your brows. She's very meticulous, studying your face shape and dimensions, to create the perfect look. So if you're looking to get microblading done, pick Julie! You won't meet another brow artist as passionate and knowledgeable as her. She takes such great pride in what she does, and it shows in her work. read more

I just want to start off by saying that I'm completely blown away with my eyebrows. I never thought I could be this happy with them and I'm so grateful that I found Julie and she could put a smile on my face and end my love-hate relationship with my old brows!! I've been contemplating getting my eyebrows done for a long time. I had a friend that went to Julie and I thought eyebrows came out great so I finally decided after months to go in for a consult. Well that consultation actually turned into me getting my eyebrows microbladed that SAME day because I was so excited!! Julie was very professional and answered all the questions that I had. She went over the whole process with me in even did a full consult with me and talk to me about my face structure and what she was suggested. I also shared with her what I envisioned. She took that into consideration and design the perfect match for me! Her Studio was very clean and well-equipped. Her background is makeup design so I really appreciated her sharing tips with me about my face structure. She is professional friendly and very detail-oriented. She listened to every question and concern that I had and treated me with respect. My whole experience was amazing. The best part... The final product :-) I couldn't be more happy with my eye brow design and the quality work she preformed. A true artist!!! I posted pictures on my Facebook and IG and people were Blown Away about how realistic that they looked. They said they never really noticed my eyebrows before being an issue but wow just wow!! now they make my eyes really pop and they just love the design! The number one thing was to make me happy and feel good about my brows. But to get compliments from friends, family and strangers... That's a huge compliment. So if you're reading this review and you're going back and forth whether to do your brows or not, I definitely make sure that when you do you choose Julie. I'm so glad that I waited years to have them done and that I found her! I knew one day there be that perfect match and guess what? That day happened and I couldn't be any more happier! Julie Taing is an amazing artist and microblade Queen!! read more

If you want someone that cares about making you look your absolute best, then scheduled your appointment with Julie, today! She's truly the best! We met when I booked her for my wedding make-up (myself and my bridesmaids). Once I learned that she added microblading, I recently had my eyebrows done. Julie is a perfectionist and pays complete attention to detail. From brows to bronzer, she's knowledgeable about the hottest products and trends and is happy to sit down with you and talk about what she's doing and why. I found this particularly comforting during microblading. What I love about Julie is that she really cares about her clients, she understands the implications behind certain looks/goals, and she'll let you know what's possible for you. She really cares about making you look your best and to highlight your best features. *** Microblading*** I'm not going to lie, the application isn't fun. I don't know why I didn't really think about how they are literally slicing into your face. Julie was a champ, she does use a numbing agent so it takes off some of the sting, but just know that you'll feel a little something. Hats off to Julie for distracting me during the larger strokes. +++ Julie really works with you on the shape and color -- she constantly shows you, so there are no surprises +++ She sells easy aftercare kits so you know what to expect in the weeks after (yes, there's a little scabbing). +++ She'll follow-up with you to schedule your next appointment (already included in the price) and is happy to answer any questions. *** Wedding Makeup *** I loved my look! Julie offers different packages, including a day of make-up facial that ensures your make-up won't smudge. She and her team showed up and made everyone feel comfortable and look beautiful. read more

Super excited to see how my microblading removal turns out. Shop was very clean and nice, and Julie was super friendly and communicative with me. Thanks again! read more

Julie is highly recommended for all your microblading needs. I was looking for someone to microblade my brows for awhile. I saw my friends that were done by Julie. They were so natural looking. You couldn't tell they were microbladed. I called first to talk with Julie and then booked an appointment for a week later. Since I'm disabled, she drove to me in Murrieta and did my eyebrows in my home. It was so convenient for me. She made me feel so comfortable like I was in her salon. The whole microblading did not hurt at all. I actually fell asleep at one point. Julie was very professional and ensures you are completely satisfied with your eyebrows. She calls and checks on you during the aftercare process and let's you know what else to expect with your eyebrows. Thanks Julie! I'm so happy with my new look! read more

I went to Julie to have my eyebrows done. I did a combo of micro blading and shading. Julie has an amazing and gentle technique. It wasn't uncomfortable at all. She really takes her time mapping out your eyebrows and asking how you usually do your makeup and what look you are trying to achieve. She's so professional and personable. I am beyond happy with my results and I highly recommend her! read more

Absolutely love my brows! Julie did an amazing g job. I wear very minimal make up and she was able to make my brows look so soft and natural. thank you Julie read more

Julie is an amazing brow artist! My brow experience and transformation was excellent! I had heard about microblading before and was very interested in it, but any time I had asked others about it I didn't get very detailed answers until I contacted Julie. Before even doing a consultation, she explained to me the process and made me feel as ease. Once I did meet with her and we began our brow-venture she was very reassuring and detailed in walking me through the entire procedure. She always reminded me that these were my brows and she was there to help me get what I wanted. In talking to her while having the microblading was in progress, I was happy to learn about all her hard work in constant research for best practices and all the practice she does to do the best she can for each client. She is so patient, honest and caring with her clients. She was accessible during the healing process answering any and all questions I had. She checked in with me to see if I needed anything or if I had any further questions. She provided me a detailed aftercare chest sheet and an after care kit! I would gladly recommend her for your eyebrow microblading experience! She is truly a wonderful brow artist. She made me feel comfortable and I now have the eyebrows I love! I couldn't have asked for a better experience. read more
