I booked Cherie for my wedding hair and makeup and I'm so glad I did! I had a rough start that morning and she had the ability to put me at ease through her gentle optimism. She did everything I asked for during the trial and made sure I liked everything the day of the wedding. The hair and makeup held up all night! read more

Beauty With Cherie - Makeup Artists Near Me

I found Cherie on Reddit and reached out to her after seeing her instagram . We did an intro phone / FaceTime call and it was great because I was able to lay out what I wanted for my idea and also tell her my plan . Since I was getting married at city hall I was not able to book my ceremony until 3 months before. She was really flexible and was able to work with my scheduling which I really appreciated . We did a bridal preview which I really appreciated because I am so picky with my makeup and I loved doing this . She also recommended me to get hair extensions for the bridal hair that I wanted which I ended up getting . My hair and makeup turned out beautifully , it also stayed put the entire day / night until 2am and I was so amazed . Cherie also has a great friendly personality and is so so easy to talk to . I highly recommend her for your makeup needs ! read more

Cherie is the most sweet, skilled, and thorough HMUA I know! I remember wanting to change HMUAs after my trial with the one I found. My previous one was skilled, but a little voice in my head said that I wanted someone who would be more kind and supportive on my big day. Feeling anxious, I kept scrolling online to find anyone who might be it. I found Cherie's name in a random Reddit comment, and they only wrote one short sentence about her, saying that she was the best, but my intuition told me she might be the one! The trial with was night and day in comparison. Cherie put soothing music in the background, and the vibes were so inviting and professional. Not only that, I love Cherie's gentle, soothing personality! It was nice talking about life with her as she did her thing, always stopping to ask what I want and even offering to try different lashes / hairstyles until we get it just right. I signed my contract with her right away!! Throughout the year, she responded so quickly and clearly to my emails. Not only that, she'd make sure to ask me how I'm doing or give me non-makeup related advice when I ask, such as what wedding jewelry to wear, where to look for a videographer, etc. I also love how organized she is, going as far as to make and update the wedding day schedule with estimated times for my bridesmaids' hair & makeup. She even gave me a list of makeup artists (along with their IG profiles) when the one I selected couldn't make it, which made picking a new one so easy!! Of course, on the day of the wedding, Cherie (and her HMUA assistant Jaylyn) went above and beyond! I was a crying mess the morning of the wedding due to nerves, but Cherie gave me space to calm myself while she and Jaylyn went right to work on my bridesmaids. When I collected myself, she comforted me while doing my makeup and hair, assuring me that the wedding day will go well. This was exactly the gentleness and emotional encouragement I needed to start my day, and I thank Cherie for being like a big sister to me and someone I could count on. Cherie even helped me put on my wedding bracelet for pictures and noticed how it fell differently on my wrist, so she made sure to adjust it for me (I don't think I know anyone else who's this perceptive)!! And she was like a proud HMUA mom, taking photos of me and the gals with the wedding photographer, haha! It was so wholesome :) Of course the makeup and hair were amazing (she even did research the night before to prepare and improve on anything for the look), and they looked better than the trial! The makeup stayed on my face all day despite me crying multiple times, and my hair was still in tact despite me sweating and being outside! I still have her cute goodie bag of makeup retouching items she gave me as a lovely memento of her services and time spent that morning. If she's in your area, book Cherie--you will not regret it!! I'm so happy we can keep in touch :) read more

I'm so grateful to Cherie for my wedding day hair & makeup! Cherie was super thorough with the details so that everything was just perfect and exactly how I imagined. Despite my requests being a little all over the place (natural but ethereal? dewy? just kidding, matte?? SPIKY MANGA LASHES), she absolutely understood the vision! Cherie is so easy to be comfortable with and goes above and beyond to help make sure everything goes smoothly, even helping my sister pin up her hair though she wasn't getting a hair service done. Her advice from the trial (extensions, face masks) was so valuable and I feel they made a big impact on the outcome of the look. She made me look like a fairy princess and it lasted all day and night (despite me being terrible at "soft smiles"). Thank you so much Cherie! read more

Amazing! Can't rave enought about Cherie. I took a chance on her and am sooooo grateful i did. Her work on instagram caught my eye and her willingness to work with me/ our budget meant the world. I hired Cherie for my traditional Tea Ceremony. After the event, I told my bridesmaids that i wish i hired her for my actual wedding day. She was incredible from start to finish. She brought her own music and staged me in an area where i got to watch the sunrise while she did my makeup. Her makeup was beautiful and lasted me all day/night. I highly recommend Cherie if you want someone who is intentional, kind, calm, and knows how to work with you in a professional manner. I also really appreciated her ability to understand my Vietnamese family and background, thus understanding the type of makeup I wanted for my special event. Thank you so much Cherie for everything that you did that day! You helped me feel grounded and settled before getting married. read more

I booked Cherie as a MUA for my wedding day and she really went above and beyond. Initially, my MOH had concerns about makeup because she tends to go makeup-free due to her sensitive skin. Cherie worked with me to also do a HMUA trial for my MOH in addition to my bridal HMUA trial. She listened to all of my MOH's concerns, talked through different makeup styles and their differences, and explained how to do touch-ups ourselves on the big day if we needed them. By the end of our HMUA trials, we looked absolutely amazing and my family couldn't stop marveling at my makeup when I got home to show them. My wedding day started incredibly early because of the tea ceremony we had in the morning. Because of this, the HMUA team had to arrive at ~4AM to do all of our hair and makeup. Cherie came right on time with a great attitude and set up quickly so she could get started. She was really friendly to all of the bridesmaids and everyone could talk to her with ease about what they wanted. When it came to doing my makeup, she mentioned that she took some time to study what she had done for my trial so that she could remember how I wanted my makeup done for the day of the wedding. She was also open to any adjustments I wanted to make the day of, although it was unneeded because I thought it had been perfect at the trial. She had also previously told my MOH and me that we could let her know of any changes in our makeup in between the trial and the big day, so she's super flexible! Weddings are super stressful for brides because there are so many factors involved and surprises that can cause even more stress. Working with Cherie was wonderful because she was so kind and friendly and I knew that I'd look beautiful on my wedding day. I got compliments from everyone on how beautiful I looked from the beginning of the day all the way to the end of the night. I can't thank Cherie enough for doing such amazing work on my special day and I would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a HMUA to make them look beautiful for a special occasion. read more

Cherie is an incredible, talented HMUA, and such a beautiful soul. She is a deeply caring person, which was reflected in the way she got to know me during our session, and paid attention/took notes on the smallest details I shared about my personality, style, and preferences. She also has no ego about her work at all, and was incredibly supportive and open to making adjustments as we went. I booked my trial for the day we were having our engagement photos done, which ended up being great, because I could tell her what I liked and what I wanted adjusted for the wedding day, based on how the photos turned out. On the day of the wedding, Cherie was such a calming presence, and she didn't miss a single note I'd sent her over email/text since I'd last seen her. She was also great with my Vietnamese family, which was a lovely bonus! My hair and makeup lasted all night, and I got so many compliments about what an amazing job she'd done. I would absolutely recommend Cherie to anyone looking for a highly skilled and meticulous HMUA with a great eye--and a great heart! Thank you, Cherie!! read more

Before meeting Cherie, I had a makeup trial with somebody different, and left feeling very disappointed and defeated. After doing a trial with Cherie, I knew that she was the one! I found Cherie and her team through WeddingWire, and saw that she's done wedding makeup for 2 people that I already knew, and they all looked incredible! I told her about my situation and she was very understanding and empathetic, and really helped put my worries at ease. Working with her and the team on the day of (Wendy and Leslie) was so effortless. They arrived on time, were extremely easy to communicate with, and were super accommodating! My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law all left looking flawless. For me, I barely had to say anything and Cherie knew exactly what to do, put extreme detail into every step, and made me feel very comfortable. I struggle a lot with self esteem, and I can confidentially say that I felt so beautiful all day! I never stopped receiving compliments, and the makeup stayed put all day and through many rounds of crying, until I finally took it off at like 5am. Thank you so much Cherie and team for making my wedding day so special, and I would 10000% recommend them to anybody. read more

It was so lovely getting to know Cherie -- she was such a calming and positive presence throughout the day. Not only is she incredibly talented at what she does, but she also has a gift for making you feel completely comfortable and confident. The look she created was everything I hoped for and more. She was very communicative from beginning to end -- always responsive, attentive, and genuinely personable. She was also so flexible with our last-minute location change and happily accommodated adding in my mother's makeup as well. It honestly felt like having a close friend by my side doing my makeup. I'm so grateful for Cherie's warmth, artistry, and the care she put into every detail. Thank you for making me feel and look so amazing on my big day -- I can't recommend you enough! read more

I found Cherie on Instagram and was immediately interested in working with her because her work perfectly matched the look I wanted. I also loved seeing how she interacted with her clients online. After meeting her through our virtual consulation, it was clear she is incredibly kind, personable, and highly skilled. I didn't know exactly what I wanted for my special day, but Cherie guided me by asking thoughtful questions and helping me narrow down specific styles for my hair and makeup. I was looking for a very natural, Asian bridal look--soft, pink-toned, fresh skin, and effortless--and she completely understood the vision. On the day of, she executed my hair and makeup flawlessly. My makeup looked natural yet polished and lasted beautifully throughout the entire day. She also shared helpful tips, tricks, and product recommendations, which I really appreciated.

I loved my wedding hair and makeup! Cherie is very knowledgeable and talented. My hair and makeup looked great and lasted all day. Cherie was professional, kind, and communicative from the moment I first contacted her. My bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law also had their hair and makeup done, and everyone was very happy! read more

This review is long overdue!! I met Cherie for my trial makeup in October of 2024 for my engagement photos and from the first time I met Cherie she made me feel comfortable and at ease. Not completely knowing what I wanted, she helped me figure out what I wanted as an indecisive bride lol. Cherie really listened to what I wanted and does a really great job with the natural look! On my wedding day Cherie did my make up with another artist (Marilyn), they both meshed so well with my bridesmaids and my moms and kept the vibes immaculate all morning! As for my makeup! Cherie exceeded my expectations and did exactly what I wanted. I felt so beautiful on my special day and got many compliments after. My mom and bridesmaid all loved their makeup as well! Would definitely be working with Cherie for future events! Cherie! Thanks so much for being a part of my special day and making me feel even more beautiful. You are so talented in your craft! read more

Cherie is the BEST! I loved working with her!! She's so easy to talk to and she did everything to ensure I was happy with my look. She listened to all my wants and needs, and totally went above and beyond to help me find a good lipstick color! It didn't even feel like she was my hair and make-up artist to be honest. The experience was so enjoyable that it felt like she was a friend who was just helping me out haha. She was also so sweet; since I was eloping, she filled the shoes of my bridesmaid even and helped me with my dress and everything, giving me advice on which earrings to wear, sending me off, etc. :') She was just the best. HIGHLY recommend!! read more

I had such a wonderful experience working Cherie! From the very beginning she was so personable and easy to talk to, which made the whole process feel comfortable and fun.

On the wedding day, she made me feel so beautiful and confident, and the makeup lasted perfectly the entire night. I couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist and I'm so grateful to have had her as part of my big day! read more

Cherie was hands down one of the best vendors I hired for my wedding. Our original hair and makeup artist stopped responding, and Cherie stepped in just one week before the wedding and completely saved us. She immediately jumped on a call, was reassuring, flexible, and helped us figure everything out right away. She did hair and makeup for my mom, the groom's mom, his sister, and cousin, and even helped with unplanned touch-ups for my sister. Everyone had different styles and preferences, and she really took the time to customize each look and listen to feedback as she worked. My mom especially loved her. She prefers very natural makeup and can be sensitive to anything too heavy, but she kept talking about how beautiful and natural her skin looked. Cherie was so patient with her and even helped her feel comfortable wearing hair extensions for the first time, and bonus points for speaking Vietnamese with my mom to help her feel at ease. She was punctual, organized (even traveling between two locations), and brought such a calm, grounding energy to the day. The hair and makeup lasted all day and photographed beautifully. I would 100% recommend Cherie and would hire her again, I'm so grateful we crossed paths. Thank you Cherie for saving the day and making our wedding day go so wonderfully. read more

This review is long over due. Cherie did my hair and makeup June 2025. From the trial to the wedding day, Cherie exceeded every expectation. She was kind, professional, responsive, and made me feel completely at ease. My makeup photographed beautifully, and lasted all day. I truly appreciate all her hard work and care. Cherie had a great team as well. They did a great job on the hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and mother as well. read more

Cherie was the absolute sweetest! I shopped around for a HMUA for my church wedding, but Cherie had the best response times and that really does make all the difference. She worked with me on price (which I am forever grateful for, we all know how weddings can drain the bank!) and even adjusted the times for me. Once I sat on her chair, the whole process was so smooth and was like chatting with a bestie. Cherie made it really clear to call-out whenever I didn't like something which I really really appreciated! Usually I am too shy to speak up or I don't want to make it seem like I was criticizing her work. Even with that comment, I actually ended up having no notes! Her work was just that great. Highly highly recommend read more

I had such a wonderful experience with Cherie for my friend's wedding. It was my first time being a bridesmaid and having my hair and makeup professionally done, and I wasn't sure what I wanted. Cherie took the time to study my features, listen to my preferences, and suggest a look that suited me perfectly. The result was soft, natural, and completely me. She went above and beyond by offering to help my daughters, who were the flower girls, with their hair so they could feel special too, such a kind and thoughtful gesture. My makeup and hair stayed flawless through the ceremony, photos, and hours of dancing. Cherie made the entire experience relaxed, fun, and truly memorable. She's incredibly talented, professional, and genuinely cares about her clients. I can't recommend her enough! read more

Working with Cherie was such a wonderful experience! I knew from our first few back-and-forths via email that Cherie was communicative and reliable. She was thorough in understanding what I was looking for and I didn't have any worries about my hair during all of the other chaos of wedding planning. On the day of, Cherie made me feel super comfortable and took her time to let me figure out how I wanted my hair to be parted. Throughout our time, she also shared tips on how to get my veil in and out of my hair and also gave me product recommendations for my everyday hair styling. We also had a lovely time just chatting and getting to know each other. It really was the best way to kick off my wedding day! In the end I had a beautiful half-up, half-down hairdo that made me feel so pretty on my special day. Would absolutely recommend working with Cherie -- she is warm, excellent at her craft, and trustworthy. Thank you Cherie for playing a huge role on my wedding day!

Omgoodness ! I've been meaning to put this review up! Cherie is so great -- her talent speaks for itself, really! My makeup turned out beautifully and lasted so nicely on my civil wedding day! Her kindness and the personal connection she created with me really stood out-- so appreciative of it! I for sure recommend to choose a MUA that understands your facial features, connects with you and is open to hearing you out, because Cherie checked out all those boxes and mines. Definitely grateful she was able to take me in and allowed me to be in her chair. Because of her, I felt confident, calm, beautiful, and most especially, myself on such a special day for mine and my Husband's. I will absolutely be returning to Cherie for all of my future hair and makeup needs and couldn't recommend her enough! read more

It was an absolute pleasure working with Cherie. She did my makeup for my engagement session at first and I loved it so much that I asked her to be my hair and makeup artist for my wedding day as well. Cherie is professional, friendly, down to earth, and so easy to work with from start to finish. I can tell she truly has a passion for beauty and really enjoys making her clients look and feel their best. I enjoyed chatting with Cherie and getting to know her during our sessions. She also helped make me feel calm and at ease which was much needed for the big day. I couldn't be more grateful to have chosen Cherie as my hair and makeup artist. Living in NY, I was a bit worried looking for one in the Bay Area, but I'm so glad I came across her Instagram page during my search. I would 100% recommend Cherie to anyone looking for a professional HMUA in the Bay Area - she is truly a gem! Thank you so much again, Cherie! read more

I highly recommend Cherie! She did a fantastic job on my hair and makeup for a family photo shoot. She really matched the styles from the inspiration images that I provided. Cherie was fun to work with and she even did my daughter's hair with curls and a princess braid. read more

Cherie and I connected instantly as two vendors in the wedding industry born mere days apart. What struck me most about Cherie was her sincerity, skill and interest in getting to know me. By the end of the trial run, I was glowing. Thank you for making me feel so at home in your presence and highlighting my beauty with such natural effortlessness. read more

I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am for Cherie! I stumbled upon her Instagram when I was in the looks for the perfect MUA for my wedding and could instantly feel her beautiful soul through her work. From the very first moment I attended my bridal trial, I knew instantly that she was the one. She truly listened to me, understood my vision, and made me feel so comfortable and confident -- I left that trial knowing I was in the best hands. As soon as she arrived on my wedding day, she brought such a calming, kind, and positive energy that made the whole morning feel so special and stress-free. Cherie along with her assistants Leslie and Jaylyn were incredibly sweet, patient, and made every single one of us feel beautiful. Cherie's kindness, warmth, and genuine care made one of the most important mornings of my life truly special from the very first moment. She has such a calming presence about her that while she was working her magic and we were chatting away she eased my pre wedding jitters. My makeup was everything I dreamed of and more -- it was flawless, photographed beautifully, and lasted perfectly all night through happy tears, hugs, dancing, and everything in between. I received so many compliments throughout the entire day and night, which made me feel so confident and radiant on such an important day. My bridesmaids also looked absolutely stunning and couldn't stop raving about how much they loved their makeup. Each one of them felt seen and cared for, which meant the world to me. Cherie didn't just do makeup -- she helped make my wedding day feel magical. I will forever be thankful for her and would recommend her a million times over to any bride looking for not only talent, but genuinely wonderful people. Thank you again to the amazing Cherie!! read more

A little belated review for my experience with Cherie in early September. I actually found Cherie while I was scrolling through Instagram, looking for a hair and makeup artist for my tea ceremony. I was looking for an artist who did more natural looking makeup, and after looking at Cherie's portfolio, I knew I found the artist I wanted to work with. My mom went along with me for the hair and makeup trial, and she and Cherie hit it off - making jokes, laughing, and just having a great time. I had a general idea of how I wanted my hair and makeup, but I trusted Cherie to do her thing - trust and let the artist do what they do best. I shared pictures with some members of the wedding party, and they really liked how Cherie did my hair and makeup - glam but not overly done, accenting my natural looks. Cherie is so kind and was always responsive to my questions, even though it would take me a while before I would get back to her emails. She provided detailed instructions for hair and skin prep, and her team (Jaylyn and Leslie) were so amazing and fun to work with. Cherie is also super personable - it's like you're talking to a really good friend, and she always made sure that I was comfortable and at ease. The night before my tea ceremony, I felt bad because I was texting Cherie pretty late (around 11pm), sending her photos and instructions on where to park and how to get to the Airbnb (since there was only street parking). The day of, Cherie arrived around 5:15am, ready to set up and start working. I had told Cherie that I was feeling anxious, but her presence and energy helped to calm my nerves (the soothing music she put on in the background also helped!). EVERYBODY kept talking about how pretty I looked, and how the makeup and hair looked so amazing. My mom kept complimenting on how Cherie did such a better job with my makeup for the tea ceremony (than for the trial); my cousins complimented the highlighter that she used; my uncle said I looked really nice, and his wife said she didn't recognize me (in a good way!); and my fiance said I looked really pretty. My makeup held up for the entire day - the traditional tea ceremony at the bride's parents' house, heading over to the groom's parents' house for photos and lunch, and the aftermath of cleaning up. Cherie is truly passionate about her craft and making others look and feel beautiful and amazing. She's super down-to-earth and displays absolute professionalism - being punctual, responsive, and detail-oriented. Thank you so much Cherie for making me look and feel beautiful for my tea ceremony. I would absolutely recommend Cherie for anyone looking for an amazing artist who can help keep you calm while making you look stunning. I definitely hope our paths cross again! read more

Cherie was absolutely phenomenal to work with from start to finish! She's a fantastic hair and makeup artist and also so nice! I greatly enjoyed my trial with her, and on the day of she was 10/10! She showed up 5 minutes early and made the beauty experience so fun! I had 10 girls in my suite with me and she made sure I was able to laugh and have fun with them throughout the morning - and of course my photos came out GORGEOUS!! I can't wait to share the photos when I get them back from my photographer. read more

Simply exceptional makeup artist and hair stylist! I was fortunate enough to have worked with Cherie on multiple occasions and she never failed to make me feel beautiful. She was patient with me, truly listened to my preferences, and transformed my vision beyond expectations. I looked glamorous but still natural, and that made me feel most like myself on those special days. Thank you, Cherie!! Not only is she talented with hair and makeup, she is also very warm and approachable. I felt very comfortable around her and trusted her fully with my look. Wonderful experiences from start to finish, and I cannot recommend her enough! read more

I'm so glad I chose Cherie for my bridal hair & makeup on my wedding day! She was super responsive to all my emails and I recall one message where I wrote something with typos but she responded with such grace. She listened to all of my inspiration and truly executed the makeup look that I wanted, which was the dreamy Thai soft look. My wedding just passed on 5/30/2025 with an unexpected heat wave for an outdoor venue soI was concerned about my makeup melting. Cherie reassured me. Lo and behold, my makeup looked stunning for more than 8 hours. Guests complimented my glow for the evening and I felt like a spring goddess. While doing my makeup and hair, Cherie explained the process which I love cause I like to know everything! Her presence and voice are calming and I'm glad to bond with someone who is intellectual, kind, and beautiful inside and out. I highly recommend her services to any future bride and bridal party! read more

It was an absolute joy getting to work with Cherie and her assistant, Jennifer, for my wedding! Cherie was reliable and responsive over email (even when a couple of my emails were sent late in the evening) and arrived on time and prepared on the day of the wedding. As someone who doesn't usually wear makeup or have my hair done, I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for and gave Cherie only a couple of reference photos and vague descriptions to go off of. She took that bit of information and, with her incredible talent and eye for detail, created a beautiful and elegant look that was everything that I could have hoped for. I received so many compliments for it throughout the wedding! Not only is Cherie gifted at what she does, she is also such a lovely, patient, and sweet person. Her calming, down-to-earth presence was exactly what I needed while getting ready on my wedding day when nerves were running high - three hours of hair and makeup flew by because Cherie was so fun and easy to talk to! Thank you Cherie for making me look and feel amazing and confident for my wedding! I highly recommend Cherie for anyone looking for a talented HMUA in the Bay! read more

STUNNING. BEAUTIFUL. GORGEOUS. RADIANT. These were words that friends and family used to describe how I looked after getting my hair and makeup done with Cherie. Cherie was very professional and detailed in all her email communications; she helped me feel confident that I was in good hands for my bridal trial (which I did on my bridal shower day) and actual wedding day. Cherie was also fun and easy to get along with when we first met in-person at her home for the trial. Cherie is an amazingly talented hair and makeup artist!!! She is a perfectionist and will ensure you look and feel your best! I highly recommend Beauty With Cherie! :) read more

Cherie's work is incredible! She is communicative, flexible, professional, and a great listener.

I had a great experience with Cherie and her assistant, Jaylyn, and they all made us feel beautiful and radiant on this day. Although we were up early in the morning, she made the entire experience relaxed, stress-free and fun. Extremely talented and knowledgeable in her field, and will definitely be going back for future events! read more

Cherie was the most wonderful HMUA I had the privilege of working with for my wedding day. Highly recommend if you are an Asian bride and want to look beautiful, fabulous, and confident on your wedding day! She did my bridal hair + makeup and was able to also bring an assistant to help with my mom and the groom's mom's hair and makeup a little last minute. THANK YOU for the flexibility. She is obviously experienced. Her portfolio on Instagram is what convinced me to choose her out of the many options out there. I wanted a HMUA who has worked with Asian brides before and could handle a variety of styles. I was undecided on what I wanted my final look to be, but she applied her signature touch, adjusted to my feedback, and was able to make me look and feel my best. Trial: The trial went so smoothly and I ADORED the look she gave me. I literally felt like a fairy princess and got soooooooooo many compliments. Wedding day: About a week ahead of the wedding day, we were finalizing details, and I wanted to change from an updo to a half-up half-down hairstyle to accommodate a bow/veil thing I tacked on last minute. Day of, she came a little earlier to do a mini consultation and executed flawlessly. I honestly loved the updo so much too! Too bad I had to commit to only one look haha. Besides that, she is just so fun to chat with. If you're spending 6+ hours with someone, it's important to enjoy talking and working with them! TL;DR - Loved working with Cherie, highly recommend for bridal HMUA in the Bay Area! read more

Cherie is my go to for all my beauty needs when I need to feel and look my best! She punctual, easy to communicate with and ensures that every hair is exactly right and all my make up is flawless.

Cherie was absolutely amazing. I had an important family dinner to attend and my mother requested I get a professional to help me look my best for it. After some searching we settled on Cherie and she was great every step of the way. She was very clear with communication before we started and that helped out a lot with someone like me, who wasn't sure what I wanted. She's a true artist who respects her craft and her clients. I felt beyond gorgeous. Cherie really has an amazing talent for bringing out your best while still maintaining your natural look. She was friendly, funny, and most importantly super informative and knowledgeable. I, personally, learned so much from my time with her. I walked away inspired and empowered! My whole look lasted the entire day and night and gave me the confidence I needed. Not only is she great with makeup, but she did my hair too and it came out awesome! Just the right vibes for me. Stellar job and I cannot recommend her highly enough. read more

Cherie was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend her to all future brides! She was my hair and makeup artist for both the tea ceremony/welcome dinner event and the wedding day. I really liked her portfolio on Instagram and after meeting her at the trial, I was sold. She was having a family emergency at the time of my trial, and still made the time to communicate with me and squeeze me in. She is personable and easy to get along with - it feels like you're talking to an old friend. As someone who isn't well-versed in makeup and hair styles, I appreciated how she guided me toward a look I absolutely loved. On both event days, Cherie was punctual, efficient, and stress-free to work with. The second makeup artist for the other girls in the wedding party, April, was a joy to work with as well. Since brides spend so much time with their hair and makeup artist on the wedding day, having someone you genuinely enjoy being around makes all the difference. Cherie's flexibility was remarkable - when there was a possibility our hotel room wouldn't be ready and we might need to set up in a common area, she was supportive and adaptable. We had a situation where one of the ladies requested an extra service on the spot and she was amazingly flexible and accommodating. I was thrilled with how me and my girls looked on the wedding day, but more importantly the whole day felt effortless and fun! read more
