Endorsements
"Berit is so talented words cannot even describe how great her work is, you have to see in for yourself! She is by far the best makeup artist in the LA Orange County area and she is even featured top 5 my foxla's hot list! She pays attention to details, and she is so passionate about what she does. Not only is she my business partner, she also did my makeup for my wedding! All of my bridesmaids still can't stop talking about how beautiful they looked and felt, and it's all thanks to her unique talent! Thanks again Berit I will forever be your biggest fan!"
"I have worked with Berit at the St. Regis Monarch Beach, also in Laguna Beach, and will work with her again in Laguna Beach next month. I have never met anyone so passionate about creating custom make-up for each of her clients. So creative and inspiring!"

Berit is the most amazing makeup artist I have ever seen. Though I didn't think it possible, I felt even MORE beautiful on my wedding day than I did at the trial! I really wanted Berit to do my makeup for my wedding, but she was originally booked! I was so sad, but then the bride ended up canceling and she emailed me immediately! I was so excited because no one made me feel as beautiful as she did. She is very responsive to calls and email and very easy to work with. My husband said, "When you walked down the aisle I didn't even notice your dress.......your hair and face looked so gorgeous I couldn't take my eyes off you." My husband also cried when he saw me! I have never felt so beautiful. I got so many compliments and my makeup stayed put ALL NIGHT LONG. Berit is really talented and I'd recommend her to anyone.

Berit works WONDERS. I have never felt so confident and beautiful (or received SOOO many comments). She is truly professional and friendly. Berit tried a few different options to make sure it worked with me and the look I was going for. She was patient and listened to my feedback. Everyone in my bridal party looked AMAZING.

Thank you, thank you for beautifying me on the most important day of my life. I could not stop looking at myself in the mirror, my makeup photographed so well from the candid photos many of my guests took with their cameras. My 3 bridesmaids (sisters) looked so gorgeous and everyone commented on how beautiful yet natural we all looked. My make up didn?t look cakey, thick, or oily. My eyes lasted all night, even through tears of joy and so did my blush, I literally touched up one time during the entire evening and that was to put a little powder that you had given me on my nose.

Again, I am so grateful to have met you. I can?t believe I actually considered applying my own makeup after all the failed make up previews with those ?other artists?. I knew from your email that you were the one when you wrote back to me and said, ?if I don?t like it, I wont pay,? money wasn?t the issue it was just the countless disappointments of people who advertise as artists and they simply aren?t, and don?t listen to your needs or have limited supplies. You were right I had nothing to loose giving you a shot, I knew you were the one just from those words and I am so happy I made the drive to your studio. After our session and you gave me the mirror I was stunned at how it was me, yet you had made me look amazing! That night was my wedding rehearsal and my husband, well fianc? at the time, couldn?t stop staring at me, he said I looked gorgeous! I can tell you are passionate about your work when you have invested so much in tools, and products and research and techniques, I went to 4 previews before you and none of them did anything remotely close to you!

Thank you again, and I will refer you to everyone I know in need of an amazingly talented makeup artist!

Thanks for being a part of my glam squad!

Berit is a true genious, her work is spectacular! I could not be more grateful for hiring her on my wedding day! She applied my makeup exactly how I had dreamed it would be. My pictures are amazing! I looked flawless and natural. My makeup application lasted through sweat and tears- along with hours of dancing. She is pleasant , 100% professional, Absolutely worth hiring for any special occasion. Her artistry made me look and feel my best.
She was flexible and forgiving (I was a stressed bridezilla) always maintaining her professionalism. Worth every cent spent! I could not feel more blessed, than I do~ having hired her to beautify me & my mother & sister M.O.H.~ on my wedding day. Her service is the BEST!

Made me feel so beautiful... she actually knows what she is talking about; not just some counter-trained person. She is simply amazing and pays attention to details that I wouldn't have thought of. (Note: she was just voted one of OC's hottest makeup artists.) She takes the time to do thrings right, instead of rushing through a "job." She is a comfortable person to be around, which is also important when the stress levels are running high on the day of the wedding.

ok so this is not a review on Berit but Sonia Suttles who works for her. Unfortunately Berit was already booked for my wedding day but she highly recommended Sonia to me.. Sonia was very nice and did a good job on my make-up and that of my bridesmaids the only issue I had was that she took more tie then she had anticipated the day of the wedding . In her defense my bridesmaids (ahem sisters) were running a little late but she still took longer then we had planned to do everyones make-up and so we had to start taking pictures with out my MOH. Everyone looked beautiful but It was somewhat stressful to be behind. I would still recommend her since she was VERY sweet and did a really good job on the make-up... just be cautioned you might want a second person to help if you are short on time, or just schedule a good deal more time then needed on the wedding day.
