Hello, I'm Julia Shulga of js.makeup.events, a makeup business in Aliso Viejo, California. I specialize in wedding makeup and hairstyles, and will work with you to create a timeless, natural look that enhances your beauty without the heavy, mask-like effect. As a licensed esthetician, I ensure your skin is perfectly prepped for a long-lasting, flawless finish that looks stunning in person and in photos.

My Approach:

  • Enhancing, not masking – I believe makeup should highlight your features, not hide them. My goal is for you to recognize yourself in the mirror—just the most radiant version.
  • Hygiene and safety first – I always work from a palette, and each client gets a fresh set of brushes to ensure the highest sanitation standards.
  • Seamless wedding prep – With my background as a wedding planner, I understand the importance of timing and a stress-free morning.

My Team and Services:

As the lead makeup artist, I curate a custom team for each event, ensuring the perfect balance of efficiency and quality. Whether you need makeup for just yourself or an entire bridal party, we adjust to your needs while maintaining the highest standards.

My work has been featured in industry publications, and I'm honored to be the Lead Makeup Artist for GlamZ Gala at Fashion Week LA, where I create runway looks.

Serving Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Diego

Let's create a bridal look that makes you feel confident, beautiful, and truly yourself!

Excellent!


I went to a wedding in Orange County and found Julia via WEDDINGWIRE. She is a friendly and kind person that knows her stuff. Also the brushes she used were cleaned and disinfected. I recommend her in a blink of an eye.

Don’t Hesitate!

Julia and her team were amazing! She was super easy to work with, so kind, very professional, and they transformed two moms, seven bridesmaids, and one bride into beautiful queens (in record time), if I do say so myself! She was quick and easy to communicate with from the time I first contacted her, put together a precise schedule for us a few weeks before the event, arrived on time, had all the equipment/chairs/lighting/products they needed, and they finished exactly when we planned to wrap up to go to the venue.  Her pricing was in line with other vendors, but travel fee was very reasonable compared to some, and there were no other hidden fees.  Highly recommend!  Thank you again iulia!  :)

Flawless Bridal Look and Incredible Value

Julia was amazing to work with for my bridal trial and wedding day. Her communication was prompt and she offered personalized style ideas that matched my vision perfectly.

She is a seasoned professional who took time to explain techniques and products, which I really appreciated. She also created a comfortable, collaborative environment where I felt confident asking questions and being specific about what I wanted.
On the wedding day, she elevated my trial look into a polished final result. I felt confident and beautiful, and seeing my husband tear up during our first look made the moment unforgettable.
Even with a windy photo shoot, my hair held up and my makeup stayed flawless all night. Julia truly creates an experience and offers incredible value for the money. I highly recommend her.

The best..

This was the hardest vendor for me to find, but when I was referred to Julia for bridal hair and makeup - I immediately said yes because not only is she gifted at soft/natural bridal makeup, but she was one of the most responsive and professional vendors I worked with. Her communication was SO good, better than mine!! She was just so wonderful and one of those people I never had to worry about in the planning process because she was on top of everything. I was so happy with how my wedding makeup and hair turned out, my makeup and hair stayed and I felt beautiful in all of my pictures😊 so fortunate to have worked with Julia and I promise if you go with her you will share the same huge sigh of relief that I did, because she’s just that good.

Outstanding Experience with Julia

Reached out to Julia with an inquiry and she responded almost immediately. Her information was clear, helpful, and professional. As a former wedding coordinator, she knew which questions to answer before we even asked. She did a trial with bride beforehand, arrived on time on wedding day, did beautiful work with our hair and makeup. She truly listened and created a magical feeling on wedding day! Very grateful for Julia and her team.

Amazing experience

Julia was an absolute dream to work with. During our initial conversation, I expressed that I wanted a heavy glam look with contour, highlighter etc.. Julia gently guided me with her professional expertise and explained why this would not be ideal.

I was a bit nervous because I did not have a trial for my wedding hair and make up. But any of that doubt quickly melted away when she arrived to my hotel room! Julia had a comforting and calming presence. When I would ask her if she needed me to do this or that, she expressed she wanted me to enjoy and have a pleasurable experience.

Julia is also very responsive. One time I reached out to her via DMs on Instagram with a question. She responded right away, then asked if we could resume the convo later because she was in the middle of her birthday celebration. Oh dear, of course I said “yes.” But still, I was so surprised she responded!

Finally, my wedding day makeup and hair was everything and MORE. She somehow delivered the look i wanted, but had trouble explaining. I have certain facial asymmetries that make me feel self-conscious. Certain makeup looks/applications can emphasize those asymmetries. Julia’s make up application was individualized just for my face. It was definitely NOT some copy & paste, cookie cutter method. She took all
my features into consideration and applied the make up harmoniously.

My hair was also gorgeous! We went with an up-do. It held ALL night. I took the up-do down the night of my wedding. But two days later, my hair is STILL holding the curls (not an easy feat as my hair is LONG, to my hip bones, and straight.)

Overall, Julia is a gem. A true master at her craft. I felt beautiful on my big day, and she helped me accomplish my goal (to make my future husband cry when he saw me during our first look LOL)!

Thank you for taking such good care of me!
