Stunning!!! Crystal did an amazing job with my makeup and hair for an event. I mentioned the look I…read morewas going for and she nailed it. She is great at color matching (she explained why certain colors don't work for me) and very intentional about making sure the look lasts the night without feeling heavy. I also loved my hair and was so happy with the full result. Besides her talent, she is also very kind and approachable and makes you feel so comfortable. Cannot wait to book her again for my next event! 10/10 would recommend.

DISCLAIMER - This is from a makeup trial in 2020 and wedding in 2021…read more It took me time to get the courage to write this review, because Crystal seems like such a sweet person. However, I don't want anyone else to have an experience similar to mine. First off, I think her makeup skills are amazing and loved her makeup work. She took into consideration my photographer's editing style and how the makeup would show up in the photos. She's also a bubbly person that was very easy to talk to. Makeup Trial in 2020: Makeup turned out great in the photos. It took me a bit to get comfortable with how it looked in person, because I wasn't used to wearing much makeup, but she talked me through everything and wanted to make sure I was comfortable. The makeup still looked great at the end of the night though too - and this is after doing an ocean-side photoshoot. The cons: - She ran 5-10 minutes behind schedule and the trial ended up taking longer than expected due to struggles with my hair; so I had to rush to make it to my engagement shoot. However, I did appreciate how Crystal still took the time to listen and try to correct things. - My hair - I wanted a half up, half down w/ curls hairstyle. In a call beforehand, I had explained to her how my hair has a difficult time keeping curls and that I usually can only get a hold with a straightener. I can't remember if she used a curling wand or a curling iron, but the curls were already falling flat during the trial. By the time of the photo shoot, my hair was lightly wavy. By the end, it got pretty flat. She did offer a discounted retrial to try another technique to see if my hair would hold better. I didn't end up doing a retrial since I had to reschedule my wedding. (Rescheduled) Wedding Day in 2021: I had booked Crystal for makeup for my wedding for myself and my mom. The days beforehand, she mentioned how she was getting vaccinated. Skip forward to the morning of my wedding. I wake up a little over 2 hours before our appointment time, and I notice a text from Crystal that was sent less than 6 hours before our appointment. She says she's so sorry, she's been having chills and nausea and that she's unsure if she can cover and she's reached out to her immediate artists. I don't hear from her again until 1.5 hours before our appointment, she confirms that none of her artists have reached back out to her yet. I'm not sure, but it seems that she became symptomatic because of the vaccination. At that time, it was known that people get side effects from vaccinations, so I thought it was unprofessional to schedule a vaccination right before a booking. It also did not help that Crystal was unable to find a replacement. It was such a stressful morning... In the end, luckily my friend found someone else available to do my makeup and my mom went to a salon.

Thank you Daniela for making us all feel special and look forward to having you do my makeup again.

I absolutely LOVED working with Elizabeth! From initial outreach, to the hair and make up trial,…read moreand all the way up to my wedding day, she was incredibly responsive to all emails and texts. I was incredibly grateful that Elizabeth was absolutely receptive to all feedback post my initial HMU trial, as I felt the shades I originally picked were too light for an evening wedding and she instantly knew how to change it up for the day of! She also took into consideration that I do not regularly wear heavy make up and was able to give me an elevated natural look, that I was absolutely IN LOVE with! Everyone in my bridal party was absolutely happy with their hair and make up. My mom received so many compliments on her hair and was grateful of the advice of hair style from Elizabeth, compared to what her regular hairstylist recommended. Her vibe was super easy going and truly was one of the bridal party as we were chatting and jammin' out to music as we were getting ready! As for my hair and make up, I never felt more like a Disney princess than after seeing my hair and makeup done while in my dress. I was super appreciative of the small touch up kit that she also provides, as I only needed to touch up on lips after 2 hours of photo poses that entailed touching foreheads and kisses! Booking Elizabeth as my wedding hair and make up artist was truly one of the easiest and best decisions I made while wedding planning. Her professionalism and talents truly are worth every cent, and her pricing is SUPER fair compared to other HMU artists around Orange County. I'm grateful I found her, and can't recommend her enough! THANK YOU, again, Elizabeth for making me look and feel like a real life princess on my wedding day!

Elizabeth and Amy arrived right on time and completed everyone's looks exactly as scheduled. What impressed me most was that their efficiency never compromised comfort or quality--we never felt rushed. They were also very accommodating with any adjustments we requested.   Everyone in my bridal party was so happy with their hair and makeup. My mother-in-law, who had Amy work on her, told me she's never received so many compliments on her look and was incredibly pleased with the experience.   As for my own look--AMAZING. I've never felt more beautiful! Even better, my hair and makeup lasted flawlessly the entire day without needing any retouch. We took photos under the sun and dealt with sea breeze, dust, and sand, and everything still held up perfectly.   Booking Elizabeth was easily one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. As a thoughtful touch, she even sent me photos and videos of my look the very next day, which I truly appreciated. She is a true professional and exceptional at what she does!

She drove out over 1.5 hours away to us, and was super kind to myself and my bridal party. All four of us loved our hair! Leading up to the wedding, she was always quick to reply and very helpful when I had questions about styles or hair extensions. She was super accommodating with me, given I wanted a completely different hair style than what we tried at my trial. She definitely executed exactly what I wanted! I was very happy with my hair, even through the end of the night! Thank you Christina!!!

From start to finish, Christina was the perfect blend of professional, outrageously talented, and genuinely one of the sweetest human beings I've ever met. She arrived right on time (such a blessing on a hectic wedding day!), and made the whole process smooth, fun, and completely stress-free. The trial beforehand was amazing. She patiently walked me through several different styles until we found the perfect look, and she listened so well to everything I wanted. She's incredibly easy to talk to, understands your vision right away, and brings it to life even better than you imagined. On the big day, my hair looked absolutely stunning and held up beautifully all night long. I felt so confident and beautiful, and I owe so much of that to her. Christina is the literal greatest and I cannot recommend her enough for your wedding or any special event. Book her, I promise you will not regret it!

Genna was my makeup artist for my wedding back in August and she did a phenomenal job! I actually…read morebooked her because she was the makeup artist at one of my bridesmaid's weddings so I had firsthand experience from that time and loved her work. She can replicate pretty much any photo of hair or makeup you show her. When I booked her, I only needed to do a hair trial since it was a new style and I was already confident with her makeup skills. For my wedding, she came to my place and did all 4 girls by herself. Getting ready can take some time but Genna is so fun and easy to talk to that the time flew by. I ended up choosing a natural glam look and low pony with pearls that I loved. All my bridesmaids were super happy with their looks as well. I highly recommend her!

She is very responsive and very good at what she does (which is making you and your girls look stunning)! First, she didn't have a minimum service to book. I had a small bridal party so that was an issue when I was searching for a HMUA. She worked with my wedding coordinator on the timeline, and on the day of, everything went smoothly as we were getting ready (which is so important.. no one wants to be stressed out on their wedding day). Genna was punctual and arrived right on time at 6AM. She had all her equipment on her and set-up quickly (I was quite impressed on how seamless and organized she was, she even brought her own light and chair for the make-up station). She did the hair for 2 of my bridesmaids, make-up for my mom and mother-in-law, and my hair and make-up. Each of showed her a picture of what we wanted/what we were aiming for and she able to re-create. Everyone looked so beautiful!! I didn't do a trial because I live in Boston, but Genna allotted extra time for this the day of the wedding. OMG Genna did such an amazing job on my hair and make-up!! I was so happy with how it turned out and what is even more amazing is that I looked just as good at the end of the night! My hair and make-up lasted through the thousands of tears and crazy dancing at night! Also, I had this huge hairpiece and 15 foot veil that she secured so well! I was afraid that hairpiece would fall out at some point because it is so heavy, but Genna stuck it in good! She also taught my MOH how to take off the veil after the ceremony. Thank you times a million Genna for making me the most beautiful bride!

She does an incredible job with both hair and makeup and is super creative. We played around with different braids, up do's, long waves and more for my trial, engagement photos, bridal shower, rehearsal and my wedding day. She was able to do something different and equally stunning each time. She is so sweet and easy to spend time with, makes you laugh and feel so comfortable with the whole process and is flexible with trying something new and adding or changing things of your final look. She and a team member worked on me, my MOH and MOB for the wedding day and her other team members did my mother and sister in laws. Everyone looked gorgeous all day and night and our makeup and hair lasted so well. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to get done up for their wedding or any celebration.
