Rachelle is one of the first vendors I booked for my wedding after hearing wonderful things about her work from mutual friends. Her Instagram (@rachellegamesbeauty) was also helpful for me to see the previous looks she's created. From the moment I contacted her, she was professional and responsive. Booking with Rachelle was very straightforward, and I especially appreciated her scheduled timetable for her and her team on the wedding day.   After meeting her for the make-up trial, I felt like I was talking to an old friend. She has such a warm and bubbly personality, and it made the time with her go by fast. I had given her a Pinterest board of looks, which offered a great starting point that we were able to customize throughout the trial. It was such a fun experience! Each look was beautiful that it was difficult for me to choose the final look! After the trial, she followed-up with me for my decision and to see how my hair and make-up held up throughout the day. It was great to collaborate with Rachelle because she genuinely values your opinion.   Fast forward to wedding day, Rachelle and her team delivered! My bridesmaids looked gorgeous. They were all pleased with their final looks, which made me so happy! I had little sleep the night before and was feeling anxious that morning, but Rachelle took the reins! She helped relieve my woes and it was easy to trust her. The final look was beyond stunning and I couldn't have been happier! I received so many compliments throughout the whole day. Even more so, my hair and make-up stayed intact despite the 100 degree weather.   There is no question that Rachelle is dedicated and passionate in her craft. I highly recommend her for any occasion! read more

If I can give Rachelle more than 5 stars, I definitely would because she puts in 100% in her work. She goes above and beyond for her clients making you feel above the clouds on your special day/occasion! I discovered her on social media years ago and I knew I wanted her to do my hair and make-up for my special day. She worked meticulously on my trial hair and make-up which turned out better than I imagined! COVID then hit us and we had to postpone our wedding. Rachelle was so flexible on rescheduling to postpone our wedding which I truly appreciate during these tough times. After many postponements, my now husband and I decided to elope and get married legally at the courthouse. Once again, Rachelle was so flexible and was able to do my hair and make-up with me even changing up my whole hair-do giving her the notice the day before. SHE IS JUST SO AMAZING!!! My hair and make up lasted ALL DAY and she also supplies you with a touch-up kit. Rachelle is well trusted and the best hair and MUA out there! She is an artist I would recommend to all my friends and family! read more

Rachelle is amazing and I am super super grateful to have found her on Instagram after browsing many accounts of different hair/makeup artists. I never thought I would be that selective in choosing my hair & makeup artist for my wedding, but I noticed I wasn't completely confident with some of the artists I reached out to prior to seeing Rachelle's work. When I saw Rachelle's IG, I honestly knew I had to hire her. I knew I wouldn't have to worry about potentially hating my look if I had her work her magic on me for my wedding day. I thankfully had my wedding planned on a Tuesday so she was available but I see her as someone being booked up wayyy in advance for weekends and peak season. My wedding was in Catalina Island and Rachelle was able to travel and be there for my special day. She did makeup for both mother of groom and mother of bride - they looked SO gorgeous! When it was my turn I had absolutely no feelings of nervousness or stress. I was just excited to see the end result! When everything was complete and I looked in the mirror, I was just sooo amazed! I don't even know how she exceeded my expectations, especially because we didn't even have a trial! Rachelle is extremely talented and I would 100% book her again for a special event. Even my mom (who hates photos taken of her) loved how she looked in the photos that were taken that day. It's an investment that is more than worth it. Rachelle is also very genuine and personable; I never felt awkward or uncomfortable even though that was the first time we met. She played a huge part in my wedding day and I can't thank her enough for making me look and feel my best! read more

What can I say about Rachelle? She's done my hair and makeup for my wedding and also for holiday family photos. She's punctual and professional, responds to texts/emails in a timely manner, and makes adjustments as needed based on clients' needs. My makeup lasted the entire evening and I received so many compliments. I would def recommend her and book her again and again and again! read more

Rachelle did an amazing job on my hair and makeup for my wedding. I found her after extensive research and she exceeded all my expectations during my trial. She also did my mom and maid of honor's hair/makeup and they looked fabulous. She's a true professional and a genuine, sweet person! Would love to work with her again! read more

Rachelle is AMAZING!! She is genuine, kind, and a great gal! This was my first time actually having a full on make-up session. I wanted a natural look and she delivered -- I did not feel like I had layers of make up on. She asked for some inspiration photos and she was able to create the perfect look. I appreciated that Rachelle customized the make-up routine based on my skin type. At the end, I asked her to tweak the blush color and she happily did it without any questions. On top of being a great make-up artist, she is someone that you can easily get along with and talk about anything! Her studio is very clean and organized. She provided hand soap/sanitizer and followed COVID recommendations. She also sterilizes her equipment, which made me feel safe. Thank you, Rachelle!! read more

Trust Rachelle for your big day!!! I couldn't have asked for anyone better. She listens to you and will makes sure it is exactly what you want for your special day even if it's different from your makeup & hair trial. I have acne scars and that's hard to hide. She didn't make it look cakey either. She made me feel beautiful for my wedding day and that's rare for me to feel that way. I had a makeup trial with someone else and it was pretty in person but wasn't capturing the same in photos. Rachelle truly understands what looks good in photos. You can tell she's very passionate about making you feel your very best. Because she takes the time to make it perfect and considers what works and didn't work. I would definitely hire her again. She's the best!!!!!!!!! Worth every penny! read more

Although Rachelle did a good job on my makeup trial, she refused to grant me back my deposit after our wedding was postponed. Due to COVID, every single one of my wedding vendors was willing to be flexible except her. At a time like this, I would hope we could all help each other out and be flexible and was extremely disappointed in her that she wasn't willing to even grant me a portion of the deposit back. read more

I am a little late on my review... but I got married back in July. I found Rachelle Games on Instagram. What can I say... Rachelle made me feel beautiful on my wedding. I originally went in and we did a trial. Decided what I wanted and didn't want. For example, I didn't want any highlight. I wanted to have a matte look. She also did my hair. I told her I wanted an "effortless bun." She totally nailed the look I was going for. If I ever have another big event and need my makeup done, I will definitely go back to her. Not only is she talented, but very sweet. Easy to work with and approachable. I had the best experience with Rachelle and her team! I also need to mention that my bridesmaids looks AMAZING. Thank you so much, Rachelle!!! read more

I was recommended by Rachelle by a friend who does my makeup as well. Rachelle is awesome! I asked for a 'glowy" daytime look that good easily transition into night for a wedding that I was attending, and a semi casual style for my hair. I asked her for a dramatic eye, but without they typical smokey look that most people do, and without making me looking like some cheap drag queen. LOL Rachelle totally delivered! I can't count how many compliments I got that night about my hair AND makeup! Will definitely use Rachelle again for any upcoming events/ party! read more

I would like to thank you Rachelle for being with me from the start from my pre wedding hair and make up trial. It was that first time we met when I felt so comfortable and felt I can be so open about my make-up needs ,concerns and hair style ideas. The emails I sent you of my make- up and hair inspiration, you completely understood me. It says so much about you as a make-up and hair artist. You trully are a skillful artist and have a kind heart. The day of the big wedding. You were right on time. You were equipped and well organized perfectly. You gave my mom your full attention and treated her like a queen. Her hair and make up was perfect. As for me the bride no words can explain how you transformed me into the queen I was about to be. My make up was flawless!!! I felt so beautiful and still felt like me. My hair was excalty what I wanted. Once again thank you for the whole experience. You are the definition of a true talented makeup and hair artist. You will always be memebered on my special day. May the holidays bring you happiness and the new year 2017 be filled with joy, success, overloaded with work and most of all good health. God bless you babe. Xoxo Jennifer read more

So happy I found Rachelle. After hours and hours of searching for someone who can do hair and makeup for my daughters Quince I finally found Rachelle. She was easy to reach and reasonably priced. Many others were outrageously priced and had an "I'm too busy attitude". Rachelle listened and paid attention to details of what looks we wanted for that special day. Her and her assistant were on time and very professional. Will definitely book again and I highly recommend her. read more

I went to Rachelle for a bridal makeup and hair trial and walked away very happy and confident I will look beautiful on my wedding day. Rachelle has an excellent demeanor with her clients - friendly and warm, so you feel instantly comfortable with her. She asked what type of look I wanted and listened to my comments. The makeup application went by so smoothly and effortlessly, I thought she was only half way done when she told me I was finished. The end result was awesome and exactly what I was looking for - glam without being overdone. With very loose guidance, Rachelle started with my hair and helped me figure out the style I wanted. She took her time and created a beautiful updo. I have relatively thin hair and didn't think it would look anything like the bridal photos. Happily, I was wrong. I looked and felt like a bride afterwards. I'm very pleased and look forward to seeing it all come together on my wedding day! read more

Can't thank Rachelle enough for accommodating me for Miss Philippines USA. We had a lot of last minute changes and she was truly patient and understanding of my circumstances. I also provided her photos of what I aimed for my look (hair and make-up) and she perfectly and flawlessly re-created it. The products she used were top-notched and great skin care was obviously what she stands for. During the process, she made sure I was comfortable and happy with every detail. Ever since I accidentally found her on yelp, I never stopped following her work whether it's through Instagram, yelp or her website. Not only do I admire her as an artist, Rachelle became a friend through the process and truly thankful for her! read more

She does not cake you up so that you are hardly recognizable but she brings out your natural beauty in ways you could never could see yourself. You truly feel beautiful when you look at yourself when she's done. read more

I was referred to Rachelle and I'm SO HAPPY I was! I came to her for my hair and makeup for my bridal shower. She was really easy to talk to, was comfortable to be around and was able to do my makeup and hair exactly as I wanted it to be (maybe even better than I thought it could be). She worked with me to make sure everything was perfect. When I got to my shower everyone was complimenting me on how amazing I looked and my fiance couldn't stop staring at me all day. My lip stain stayed on all day without any touch-up and my hair is still in curls today after I slept in them last night. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family. Thanks Rachelle! read more

Rachelle is amazing!! I am so glad I found her. I've booked two make up & hair appointments with her so far and I plan to always book with her for any special event in the future. She takes pride in doing good work. What I loved about her the most is how well she prepped my face before applying any make up. Other artists do not put as much attention to that. Rachelle is an extremely knowledgeable make up artist. read more

Organizing wedding stuff from the other side of the world should be hard, but it wasn't at all with Rachelle.

Rachelle was a wonderful, professional, and very knowledgeable make-up artist. She came to my house for a make-up application and lesson for a birthday party. The birthday girl looked beautiful at the end. Rachelle brought out her natural beauty and glammed her up a bit for a night out. Rachelle also talked the ladies in our group through the application and offered tips and tricks while she did the make-up application. She answered questions about products, shades, brands, and technique. Thank you again, Rachelle! read more

My girlfriend and I were in LA on a business trip and she wanted to get her hair and makeup done for a formal banquet we were attending. A quick check of Yelp led us to Rachelle. After a few messages in which she responded promptly, we set up a time for her to come out. Rachelle was excellent. Very personable and kind, she really did a wonderful job on the make up and the hair styling looked amazing! My girlfriend received many compliments that night and was very pleased with how everything worked out. I would absolutely recommend Rachelle and plan on giving her a call again the next time we are out in LA. Thanks again Rachelle! read more
