Grace was recommended by a friend and I'm so glad she was available for my wedding day! I loved my hair and make up, it was exactly what I asked for - soft glam and mid-high bun with face framing pieces. It lasted all day, even after crying and dancing all night! She listened to all my notes during our trial and was so nice and patient when there were changes between our trial and wedding day. She was super sweet throughout the whole process, easily reachable even after giving birth! She did my hair and make up, make up for my bridesmaids and mom. My mom is super particular but she was so happy with her make up! You can tell she puts in a lot of care into her work. I would definitely recommend Grace for hair and make up on your special day! read more

Grace is the BEST!!! I found out about Grace because she did my friend's makeup for her wedding and reached out to her to see if she could do my makeup for my engagement shoot and wedding day. I saw her natural and glowy style on ig and knew she would be perfect for what I wanted. This was my first time getting professional makeup and wow I was so impressed! Grace was on time, sweet, patient, and attentive. She definitely has magic fingers and made me feel my absolute best both times! My mom and MIL also LOVED their makeup, and my MIL asked for Grace's number for future services. I am so glad that I found Grace to do my bridal makeup.

While searching for a wedding hair & makeup artist, I knew I wanted someone who would be able to travel to me and have the skills to do my hair and makeup along with my mother's the day of the wedding. I was struggling to find someone who's work represented their ability to create the look that I desired, and was thrilled to be introduced to Grace through our wedding photographer, William Kim. Grace was knowledgeable, efficient, conversational, and understood the details that really bring a wedding look together. She just gets it. Throughout the hair and makeup trial session as well as the wedding day, I gave her feedback on the spot which she took into account, and did a wonderful job at achieving the look that I wanted. I felt beautiful on the day of my wedding, and the hair and makeup she put together didn't require any touch ups, which was a surprise since I have really oily skin. Overall, I'm really pleased with my entire experience with Grace and highly recommend her services for special events. Thank you, Grace! read more

I asked Grace to do hair and makeup for myself, my mom, and one of my bridesmaids for my wedding day and I am so glad I did! Grace was able to take what I envisioned for my hair and makeup for my big day and bring it to life. With a full face of bridal makeup, I felt glamorous but I still felt like myself. I also really appreciated how she focused so much on prepping my skin before application and I can thank Grace for the glowing skin in all my photos!! Not to mention that the makeup and hair lasted through all the tears and jumping up and down on the dance floor! Grace is professional, punctual, and so sweet! She is easy to talk to and doesn't make you feel like just any other client, but really listens to what you want and prioritizes making you feel comfortable. My mom was also impressed by Grace's talent and she absolutely loved how her hair and makeup turned out! I will definitely be reaching out to Grace again for any makeup services I need in the future! :) read more

Grace is a true master when it comes to natural, soft glam! I specifically sought out this look for myself, my maid of honor and two mothers. Day to day, I only wear moisturizer, sunscreen, do my eyebrows, slap on some mascara and call it a day. I knew I didn't want a ton of makeup, I wanted to look natural, AND glamorous at the same time. In the past, I've had makeup professionally done before but I just felt uncomfortable because I couldn't recognize myself in the mirror. I contacted Grace after looking at her IG @beautywithgracelee. I could tell from her work that she would deliver what I wanted. And last weekend she did! I loved how natural and glamorous my makeup and hair turned out. I felt like a princess! My makeup maintained after multiple numerous tears, and my hair was set throughout the night as I danced away! Grace is also very skilled and knowledgeable when it comes to older women's hair and makeup. My Mother and MIL expressed how beautiful they looked! They were even asking if Grace owned a hair salon so they can go there! Also, Grace is very professional, on time, and really sweet! I didn't feel awkward being on that high chair. I felt like a close girlfriend was doing my makeup and hair for the big day. I look forward in contacting her for other special occasions and will definitely recommend her to my family and friends! read more

Grace was recommended to me by a friend, and after doing extensive research and comparing a bunch of other wedding make-up artists, I am sooo happy that I went with Grace! I first booked my trial session the same day as my engagement shoot and she was great with navigating with new covid-19 safety and protocols, making sure all of her tools were clean. I really loved the care and attention she gave to doing my hair and makeup, and really loved the way I looked in photos! I ended up booking her for my wedding day as well as for my 4 bridesmaids. She was very quick with communication and working with my day-of wedding coordinators. She arrived on-time to the location, with her whole hair and makeup set-up ready to go. She did a great job working quickly, but making all of my bridesmaids look natural and polished! She also did a great job with my hair and makeup, I really did feel beautiful and didn't have to worry about touching my hair or face the whole day. Highly recommend her to any other brides in the area looking for wedding/photography make-up and hair services with great/reasonable prices. Loved working with Grace so much! read more

2020 has been such a ride. Like so many other brides, I started this year planning what I thought was going to be my dream wedding. Venue: booked. Photographer: booked. Makeup artist: booked (or so I thought). When COVID hit, the now hubs and I made the difficult decision to postpone. For months, I was talking to a makeup artist and working with her on our new date, but about 1 month before the wedding, she suddenly remembered that she had a family vacation that she took every year during my new date. Subsequently, she refunded me and I started to panic. A month out and without a makeup artist. I started to desperately look through previous emails and Instagram accounts I bookmarked and came upon Grace. OKAY, I'm not sure why I didn't go with Grace the first time around, but honestly y'all, don't be like me and just book her! She was very communicative throughout the booking process and very understanding of my situation. I ended up booking Grace for our (hopefully) larger wedding celebration next year and for our intimate ceremony this year. BOY, DID SHE DELIVER OR WHAT. For those who know me, I'm a very indecisive person and after a few descriptions of what I was hoping for, she worked her magic and did my hair and makeup exactly how I envisioned. I love the care Grace takes in making sure your skin is supple and ready for makeup, and she made me feel so relaxed during the whole process. I feel like 95% of brides ask for the "natural look" on their wedding day, but Grace really brought out my features and although I had quite a bit of product on my face, it certainly didn't look or feel that way at all - I felt so pretty that day. All my friends and family was telling me that my entire look was flawless and even the hubs was saying that my makeup was so much better than my first trial (with another artist), and that he had to do a double take because I looked so good (ho ho lol)! I definitely would book Grace again for all my future makeup needs and I can't WAIT to see what magic Grace works on me next year at my celebration! TLDR: If you're looking for a makeup artist that will give you the "natural look" and is friendly, flexible and knows her stuff, look no more. I know how stressful it can be for a bride to find a makeup artist, but Grace is amazing. Book her now!! read more

As someone who NEVER (really never) wears makeup, I cannot express how much it meant to me that Grace was a part of my wedding as my hair and makeup artist. From the moment I met her, she made me feel so comfortable and really considered my style, which is exactly what my priority was. She totally nailed it with giving me a natural bridal glow that lasted all day, through tears, dancing, and laughing, and sweating. She also made my hair look so good despite how little hair I have :'). We haven't received our official photos yet, but I attached a quick selfie I snapped in the middle of the banquet (6-7 hours after Grace put on the make up and everything is still in tack)! Grace also did the makeup and hair for my Mother in Law and Mom. Their styles are very different especially from mine, but Grace listened to what they wanted and I know both of them felt so beautiful, and kept saying repeating how impressed they were with how the make up stayed throughout the day/night as well as how happy they were with the look. Would highly recommend Grace's services!!! read more

Grace did my and my bridal party's makeup for my wedding day. She did such an amazing job! I am usually particular about my makeup style mostly because I've had bad experiences with getting my makeup done in the past and at times I feel like I can do a better job myself. I found Grace on Instagram, and I booked her without having a makeup trial before my big day because my engagement shoot was out of town & I thought it would be a waste of paying to have my makeup done and then going home afterwards to take it all off. So I took the risk and completely trusted her on the day of my wedding. I thought to myself, "what's the worst that can happen?" And if I didn't like the way it turned out, I could correct it myself. But my makeup turned out better than I expected and I had no regrets! I basically told her what I didn't want and she just worked her magic from there! My makeup looked flawless and exactly the way I wanted: glowy, dewy, with contour and lots of highlight without looking like a drag queen... and my bridesmaids absolutely loved her! read more

I used Grace's services for my wedding make up and I am so glad I chose her! I used my trial session for the engagement photos, and loved the way my make-up came out in the photos. Grace did mine and my MOH's makeup and she also did hair and make up for my mom. I would've loved to get my hair done from her too but at the time of booking, I had too many bridesmaids and wouldn't have been done in time. Instead, she referred me to someone else for hair, who I also loved working with. From the moment I reached out to her, she was very responsive and answered any questions I had (which I had a lot of!). I had to change my wedding plans due to COVID but Grace was very professional and patient throughout the entire process, as our plans did change a lot. She was very accommodating and gave great advice when I had questions (i.e. on my mom's hair). As frustrating as it was as a bride to change wedding plans, I know it was even harder as a vendor for Grace, but she was very understanding and adapted to the change of plans very effortlessly. One (out of the many) things I was grateful to her about was that she took extra time and effort to work with me to figure out my mom's hair situation. My mom had short hair and wore a Korean traditional dress and Grace knew exactly how to make my mom's hair in a volumized low up-do style that would look great with the Hanbok by adding a wig add-on. She also took extra time for my make up and it turned out really great. She knows exactly how to make you look beautiful in person and in photographs. The make up also stayed on beautifully the entire day and I never had to worry about touching up at any point. I got so many compliments from friends and I've already referred a few friends to her for their own wedding! I would highly recommend Grace to anyone and loved working with her! read more

Grace is the best!!! I had such a wonderful time working with her. She is incredibly kind, flexible, and very knowledgeable with working with different make-up and hair styles. I really appreciated that she was always willing to make that extra step to make sure that the makeup and hair styles were what I desired and hoped for on my big wedding day. She is very professional, positive, and quick to respond and work as a makeup and hair stylist. She is really flexible in making changes because, on the day of my wedding, I asked for a bit of a change in my makeup style and she was quick and willing to make last minute changes. Not only that, she worked with my mother's and bridesmaids' hair and makeup, and they all thought she was very wonderful! All to say, I highly recommend her to any bride-to-be who is considering a hair and makeup stylist for her big wedding day! read more

I recently got my wedding makeup done by Grace this past September and I cannot begin to describe how awesome she is! She's punctual, quick and knows what looks best for you and your bridesmaids, not to mention, she's very easy to talk to while you're getting glammed up for all those hours. After researching many MUA on Instagram, I chose Grace because of the natural, dewy looks she specializes in. She's priced well for what she offers and I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a natural, flawless look on their wedding day. :) read more

I did a makeup/hair trial with Grace and it was such a great experience! It was such a smooth process and it took me no time at all to trust her and let her work her magic.

I'm so happy I found her and even more happy that she'll be the one to do my hair and makeup on my wedding day! I definitely recommend her to anyone looking to feel beautiful on their wedding day or any occasion for that matter. read more

So thankful I found Grace as my wedding hair & make up artist! From the start, she was always so easy to contact and communicate with. Even when COVID had changed our wedding plans and I had to wait to book her services, I was so excited to hear that she was available for my wedding day! She also was very accommodating to schedule a trial session for my bridal shower on a short notice. When my trial session came around, she was timely, took excellent safety precautions, and patiently listened/understood what kind of look I wanted. As someone who didn't have an exact hairdo in mind, she captured my hair goals exactly. I loved how she used a natural makeup look to highlight my features and the soft romantic updo she did! She constantly asked for my thoughts and if there was anything I wanted to change. When my wedding day came around, she helped me feel at ease and worked her magic again! She's so kind, flexible, affordable, and I loved having her as my stylist! Would highly recommend. read more

Grace did my hair/make up for my wedding and she did an absolutely amazing job. I wanted a natural gooey make up look and Grace exceeded all my expectations.

I was introduced to Grace through a friend and I'm so happy that I decided to go with her for my engagement shoot and wedding make-up! I don't think I really even told her exactly what I wanted. At our trial session, All I said was "I want it to look natural, but not too natural, I want it to look like I actually have make up on, but not too much" and she did just that! I've had my make up done several times by other MUA and I was never completely satisfied. But I was really happy with Grace! I would definitely book her again. read more

I was referred to Grace through a friend and I'm so glad she did! Grace did my hair and make up for both my engagement photos and wedding day. I absolutely loved both. I didn't think soft, natural make up would look great on me but Grace is amazing! Not only was it beautifully done in person but it came out amazing in the photos! My only regret is not having her do my mom's hair and make up lol! Thank you, Grace!! read more

Grace was super professional and punctual throughout my whole engagement shoot and wedding hair/makeup sessions. In my everyday life I never wear makeup and just giving her the direction that I wanted to look natural and trusting her with her skills really put me at ease. All the makeup on didn't feel too heavy. Also I had different ideas for hair and she did what she thought would show best in pictures and it turned out really well. She will also be the makeup/hair at my sisters wedding as well so that shows I would def refer her to everyone. read more

Grace is AMAZING!! She did my hair & makeup for my engagement photo shoot and my wedding. I could not have asked for a better person. She made me so comfortable and listened to all my insecurities. I unfortunately feel very insecure about my freckles and she was able to cover them all up so naturally. Grace talked me through the whole process and went over different ideas for my hair. I got so many great compliments for my hair and makeup on my wedding day Thank you so much Grace read more

Grace was recommended to me by a coworker, and I thank my lucky stars she was available for my wedding! From the moment I contacted Grace to the big day, she was a dream to work with. She is very professional and friendly, always responded promptly when I contacted her, and best of all, her makeup work is spectacular. My mother and I both had trials, and Grace did such a great job putting both my mother and me at ease. We were both so thrilled and it helped so much, knowing I would be comfortable and look beautiful on my wedding day. The day of, Grace showed up right on time and got to work on my mother in law, my mother, and me. Everything went smoothly, and we all looked perfect!

I had my hair and make up done with Grace for my twins newborn family photo session and I could not have been happier with her work. I wasn't sure what I wanted and I pretty much left it in her hands. The result was exactly what I wanted...natural yet "done up". I loved what she did with my hair as well. I loved it sooo much that we dropped off the babies at my mom's house and we had an unexpected date night with a ton of selfies. :) I felt beautiful all day/night long. I already have my next appt set up and I am referring her to anyone that needs beautifying. Thank you again Grace! read more

I got my hair & makeup done by Grace for both my engagement shoot and my wedding day and she was AMAZING. I usually don't wear much makeup and didn't know what style I wanted but I showed her photos of my dress and venue and she was able to work her magic. I did have some minor fixes I wanted for my wedding day after the engagement/trial session and when I communicated that with her she was able to fix everything I mentioned. I also appreciated how quickly she responded to all my emails/questions and how reliable she was on the day of my wedding in terms of schedule. I had a morning wedding so we had to be ready before 7:30am but she came to the getting ready location on time and had us ready and out the door on time! She was so professional but also personable. I was worried it'd be awkward sitting there for over an hour getting my hair and makeup done but she was so sweet and kind and made me feel at ease. Her prices were also very competitive and I had no complaints. I will be recommending her to everyone I know! read more

Grace is beyond amazing! She did my hair and makeup for my engagement shoot, wedding and my son's 100th day party.

If I could, I would ask Grace to do my hair and makeup every single day!! read more

Grace is truly a talented MUA! I got my hair and makeup done with her for my wedding and everything was on point. Grace has years of experience creating a natural look that highlights the best features and she did exactly that for my special day. I requested a hint of shimmer on my eyelids and a rosy lip color and she had many colors to offer. Grace also knows that photographs tend to drown out colors so she put on extra blush that glammed me up without effort. Also I would note that I have oily skin but Grace prepped my skin under makeup so that it didnt look shiny for hours! I'm so glad Grace was my MUA and she even perfected my hair poof after a glance at an inspo. My friends loved everything about the hair and makeup. Grace also transformed my mother's short hair into a neat low bun with hair extensions. I would recommend Grace to anyone! read more

Grace is amazing, period! She is the sweetest and so easy to work with. She knew exactly what I wanted for my wedding day - she gave me a flawless & natural make-up look and elegant curls! She also did my bridal party's hair and make-up and they loved their make-up!! Days after the wedding, most of them were asking me what foundation she used! They all had experienced other make up artists and Grace was the only makeup artist they liked and make them feel fabulous without looking like they were wearing too much makeup! I definitely recommend Grace!! Thanks Grace :) read more

I had the pleasure of meeting Grace when she did my engagement make up and hair as a trial. And she was amazing! Her style is beautiful and natural and she is so open to what you want. What I loved most about Grace though is that she is SO friendly and warm and so interested in YOU. She made me feel so comfortable and excited for my big day. Can I also say that she showed up EARLY for a 6 am start time, driving from Santa Fe springs to Irvine, and stayed on her feet for 6 hours to make my bridesmaids and myself look beautiful, and she was upbeat and sweet the entire time (she had just had a kid too!) thank you, Grace, again for being your kind and amazing self. read more

The best! Grace is so great to work with. She did my makeup for my wedding day and did a fantastic job!

I already recommended her to some of my friends getting married next year! read more

Grace is a very talented makeup artist. She did my makeup for our family holiday photos and the end result was exactly what I wanted (smokey eye with brown tones). It's a plus that she is also very down to earth, so the environment was relaxed and I felt comfortable while I was getting my face done. I plan to go back to Grace in the future for my makeup needs! read more

Grace is a talented makeup artist and she is just as sweet! I had recommended her last year to one of my girl friends for her wedding because I've seen her work. I knew that I wanted her for my big day and I am so glad that I did! I had 8 bridesmaids for my wedding day and since we got married at the peak of wedding season, Grace wasn't able to find someone else to assist her with makeup. However, that was not an issue at all! Although my bridesmaids had to wake up super early, Grace did all 9 of our makeup AND hair (with the help of her sister who curled and prepped everyone's hair before Grace styled it)!! Grace finished with plenty of time left and everyone looked amazing! There is no way that anyone who isn't professional or talented could have pulled this off!! My makeup lasted all day AND night and it was exactly what I had in mind. I highly HIGHLY recommend Grace because she is AMAZING! read more

Let me start off by saying I have had my make done by professionals quite a bit- and Grace, by far, is my hands down favorite. My first experience was when she did make up for my sister-in-law's wedding. She did mine perfectly! So obviously, for my wedding I immediately booked Grace. Grace has the ability to do all types of make up, by that I mean she can do perfect make up for all nationalities, she understands bone structure and knows how to highlight each persons' features. I cannot wait to get my pictures back and then I'll post them on here! read more
