Experienced and so sweet to work with!

I would absolutely recommend Christina, she has the experience and listens well to your concerns so that you feel your best on your wedding day!

As an Asian woman, I had concerns about an MUA having experience with my skin color and eye shape. She made me feel so comfortable throughout the process and made sure I liked the final result. I’ve never felt so beautiful!

Christina is the best!

She did my makeup for my engagement photos, wedding day trial, and wedding day and they all turned out amazing. She also did makeup for my bridal party, which included eleven other women on my wedding day. She was able to get that done by herself in six hours which was seriously so unbelievable. She is quick and efficient while doing a high quality job. She listened to my requests, tailored my experience to what i wanted, and she did the same for my bridal party. She also left everyone with touch up kits for the rest of the night just in case. My makeup lasted through warm weather and all of my dancing all night. She has a very fun personality and it felt like another friend in the room with us. She is extremely professional and comes with all of her own lighting and chair so would be good for any venue. Everything is clean and sanitized throughout the whole process, and she uses a new beauty blender on each person that she allows you to keep when she's done. I had a lot of decision fatigue during my wedding and she really helped guide me in the direction of finding the perfect wedding day makeup. I am sooo glad I was able to book with her! She made me feel so confident and gave me exactly the look I wanted every time!

Recommending Christina

Christina was absolutely incredible! She did makeup for me, my bridesmaids, my mom, and my grandma — and everyone looked amazing. She has such a talent for enhancing everyone’s natural beauty. Not only was her work flawless, but she was so kind, calm, and amazing to have with us on the morning of the wedding. Our makeup lasted perfectly all night, and I can’t recommend her enough!

The best MUA!!!

I don’t wear make up. I’ve never worn make until my wedding day. I was so scared that I wouldn’t “look like myself.” During my trial with Christina I told her I wanted a natural look. A natural look is what she gave me!!! I even cried because I was so pleased with how she made me look. She cared about what I wanted and didn’t try to over do it. She even educated me on skin care. On my wedding day my girls were pleasantly please with her services. She made me look and feel like the queen that I am! Let me not mention that she has an amazing personality. She paid attention to time and detail. Everything about Christina was wonderful!

Top notch!

Christina is top notch! She values providing her clients with high quality makeup services. From the beginning she was transparent with her pricing which helped expedite this crazy wedding process. Christina is professional, timely and prepared. She provided each bridesmaid and bride a to go kit to ensure we could do touch ups throughout the whole day. I am so thankful for her!

Christina is THE best

Christina is THE BEST! I had never had my makeup done professionally before, and from the trial to wedding day, she made me so confident and made me feel like THE most beautiful girl in the world! She is so patient, kind-hearted, and listens to all of your wants! She is very knowledgeable with makeup and has great advice, yet, wants to make sure it is the exact way you imagined. She is SO dang talented at what she does. I am so thankful I chose Christina for my wedding makeup. My family/wedding party loved her! She was a joy to work with. I cannot recommend her enough! Her work speaks for itself, but trust me when I say, you will not regret having her as your MUA!

Beyond Incredible 🤩

From booking, transparent pricing, and responsivness to showing up exactly when she said she would and having just the best *vibe* for lack of a better word, Christina was absolutely the best vendor choice I made for my wedding!! She made me and all my ladies (mostly aunts / grandmas / moms) feel soooo pampered and special while always listening to them and not ‘overdoing’ anything! My mom and aunt are *still* raving about Christina two months later and wish they had another wedding to plan just to book her again!! As for my bridal makeup, Christina listened to my vision and gave me exactly the look I was aiming for on my special day!! Again, best vendor choice of the wedding by far and would absolutely book her again and absolutely would aggressively recommend her to my friends!!!

November 2023 Wedding

Christina was one of the best decisions I made about my wedding! She’s so easy to get along with and she did an AMAZING job on my makeup! All of my bridesmaids looked absolutely gorgeous too. She is such a gem!

Incredible!!

Christina was nothing short of amazing for both my trial and wedding day. She is the sweetest and most down to earth human being to speak to. She did my trial back in 2022, which was also for my engagement shoot, and made me feel like a queen. The wedding day in 2023, she went beyond the trial. Not only myself but my bridesmaids and the moms looked absolutely stunning and I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much to Christina and her team. I couldn’t recommend her enough!

Wedding Makeup with Christina!!

Christina did an amazing job on my bridal makeup as well as the makeup for my bridesmaids and the mothers. Everyone kept telling me how beautiful they felt after getting their makeup done and my mom was almost in tears because she was so happy with how it came out! I really cannot thank Christina enough for all she did making sure I had the exact look I was envisioning for myself. She is so easy to work with and talk to and even brought a speaker to start the party while we were all getting ready (we forgot ours too…oops). I 100/10 recommend Christina for any makeup needs and look forward to working with her in the near future❤️

I have worked with a couple of make up artists and Christina was by far the nicest. Her work on the bride was amazing as well. She was very patient and loved the bride's suggestions even if they were not traditional. My assistant kept asking her questions about make up and she was so polite and answered all her questions. I would definitely recommend Christina and look forward to working with her again.
