I had the pleasure of having my hair and makeup done by Agne. I provided her with an inspo picture and she completely captured the look that I was going for. She listened to exactly what I wanted and her attention to detail was incredible. My hair and makeup lasted throughout the whole night and I received several compliments. I highly recommend her services. read more

Agne's makeup class and presence is an exceptional experience overall. Her professionalism and background in the industry are proven through her workmanship and craftsmanship. I was intrigued with her techniques using our hands to apply a daily look. She helped me understand the color theory aspect of matching colors to my skin tone that would compliment me. It went beyond skin tone. She also helped me identify the shape of my face and eyes according to a chart that was provided. These charts indicated what technique of highlighting/contouring that would highlight my face structure best. I gained so much insight. Thank you, Agne, for your wisdom and welcoming presence in your safe haven cove. You curated an open, safe space for us to go beyond skin deep into our perceptions of beauty. read more

Agne is the hands down the BEST hair and makeup artist you can book for your wedding day or other special event. I am so happy and blessed that I found her. She make me feel like the most gorgeous bride on my special day. I have never felt more beautiful in my life. I absolutely LOVED my hair and makeup. I received so many sweet compliments from family and friends throughout the day and even afterwards when looking at photographs. I asked for a soft glamorous look where I would still look like myself but also like a bride and Agne exceeded my expectations once again! She listened to my feedback and ideas during our awesome trial session and made me so happy on my wedding day. Agne is also such a sweet and caring person. She is a positive, warm, and kind person to have by your side and full of so much love for her clients. I have never had my hair and makeup done better by any other artist. Agne is incredibly talented, has an eye for beauty , is detail oriented, and will compliment your features beautifully. Her work always turns out even more amazing than any inspiration photograph you show her. She has done my hair and makeup now for my engagement photos, bridal shower, and wedding. On wedding day, I also booked Agne for touch ups and it was so helpful to have her by my side when we went to multiple different locations for our church ceremony and romantic photos. It put me more at ease knowing that if there was anything that needed to be touched up or fixed (such as after some happy tears, a little wind, or different photos with or without the veil on) that she would be right there. That helped me truly enjoy my day more without having that added stress. My lipgloss looked fantastic in all my photos and I wasn't oily at all! I highly recommend booking her to stay for touch ups during your day if you are able to. It was the best decision I made! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Agne for everything. Any bride is truly lucky to have you on her team! You deserve 5 stars and beyond. I can't wait for another special event in the future so I can book you again! I also wanted to thank Agne's beauty affair team for their incredible work glamming my lovely bridesmaids, mom, and mother-in-law on wedding day as well. They were all also so happy with their hair and makeup and looked beautiful!!! The team members were punctual (all arrived early), talented, and super sweet. We had the best getting ready morning. I highly recommend booking them for your bridal party! We had a stress-free and amazing experience. read more

My daughter and I had our makeup done by the amazing Agne for a recent graduation party as per a friend's recommendation. Agne is incredibly skilled and talented as a makeup artist. She has such a love for what she does, and is super professional and is a gem. Both my daughter and I had such a fun time while Agne worked with us and transformed our faces. We loved how Agne did our makeup so much that we are signing up for classes this summer to learn more about technique. We cannot recommend Agne enough! read more

I had a "red carpet"-type event to attend in Hollywood that included celebrities and others who would undoubtedly use the services of professional hair and make-up artists. I didn't want to show up with DIY make-up and hair. I found Agne through Google. She did a fantastic job with my face and hair -- just enough glamour for the occasion. I felt so much more confident heading to this event than I did when the invitation first arrived and I thought, "What am I going to wear? What am I going to do with my hair??" I just wish Agne could be here every morning to get me ready for the day. If you have a special occasion, do yourself a favor and let her do the work of making you beautiful! read more

Jane from Beauty Affair did my hair and makeup for my wedding and it turned out beautifully! She is so sweet, professional, and very thorough/attentive.

Thank you Jane and Beauty Affair for everything!! read more

Agne is so talented! she listen to you and figure you out right away. Her skills are rare in this industry. I used Agne's make up for a photoshoot with a my model, and here its the result, very classic, timeless look. I recommend her any time for any occasion! I will be using her services again in the middle of February for a wedding I am going to, and will review again. Until then! read more

I got married on April 21st of this year, and I booked Agne to do my hair for the "day of" in addition to her team to do my bridesmaids' hair and makeup. I could not have been happier with the results. Not only did I get numerous compliments (and counting because to this day friends and family are still raving over my hair), I also felt glamorous and beautiful. I wanted an updo that was unique, and after showing Agne some inspiration photos, she knew exactly what I had in mind. In fact, the execution was even better! My hair lasted the entire night, and let me tell you, I danced my heart out on the dance floor. I also want to write about Agne's level of professionalism, which was just wonderful. I secured her for my wedding a year in advance and throughout she kept in contact with me, having me fill out questionaries and frequent important reminders such as when to schedule my trial run. I felt as though she thoroughly cared about making my vision come through. In fact, even after my wedding she asked how I liked everything. As for my bridesmaids, Kelly from Beauty Affair styled their hair and Jordan did their makeup. Each bridesmaid loved their natural, yet elegant looks. I highly, highly recommend a Beauty Affair for anyone's wedding needs. read more

Agne is the most versatile and creative makeup artist that I have ever worked with! She did my makeup for three important occasions, and spent time discussing the "look" we'd like to achieve for each shoot. The first example was for my engagement shoot with my now husband, in which she kept me looking feminine, natural and glowy! Example here: http://youtu.be/Y6a1aON20pQ I'm a singer, and the shoot we did was my Artist Promo shots. Agne's creative instincts blew my mind with the 3 very different "looks" she achieved: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4993E3CE083E3913 Lastly, Agne was my makeup artist for my music video in which she created a 1940's vamp look and then a modern edgy pop-star look: http://youtu.be/lm3VEtR2g8A Agne is a true artist, and she is my first choice every time when I'm in need of a makeup artist! read more

I booked the Beauty Affair for my wedding this past March (3/27/21). There were 6 bridesmaids, 3 flower girls, & myself (the bride), which whom all have different hair textures and lengths (kinky, curly, fine, wavy/ long hair, short hair). Agne & her team truly blew me away. I didn't have a hair/ makeup schedule for everyone and Agne was kind enough to create a schedule for everyone to ensure everything went smoothly. Her line of communication was always open weather through text, email, or phone. She was always ready to assist with any questions or concerns I had. The day of the wedding she and her team arrived on time & prepared with all the right tools and hair products. Agne along with her other stylist went out of their way to make sure everyone's hair looked perfect. Agne even washed & dried my hair extensions for me because I was to busy & tired to wash them the night before. They were both so positive and fun to work with. Their energy was great and you could tell based on their knowledge & actions they were real professionals who know everything there is to know about hair textures and styling. They really care about making everyone look great & feel happy. Agne & her other stylist were able to execute with perfection myself, along with all my bridesmaids & flower girls in just a few hours. Not only did everyone's hair look AMAZING, more importantly, the curls & styles actually held up the ENTIRE evening looking freshly curled with a beautiful shine (mind you, this was an outdoor wedding). All of our curls stayed bouncy and in place, and with zero frizz! I was so happy. Before Agne and her team left they made sure everyone was happy with their hair and offered any final touch ups. Agne also advised me to do a quick brush through my hair after changing into my reception gown for the dinner and reception, assuring me that the style she created would hold the entire evening & look fabulous. I followed her instructions and did the quick brush through after changing dresses, and my hair looked simply beautiful. The hair products she used on us gave everyone's hair a beautiful shine with zero product build up, allowing me to brush through my hair with ease, while keeping all the curls held in the proper place. I'm going to post a few photos for reference..The last photo of us kissing with the desserts was at the very end of the evening; you can see in the photo how nicely my hair held up outdoors and dancing all night. When myself and a few bridesmaids woke up the next morning, our hair still looked great.lol All we had to do was quick brush through, and this was the day after the wedding! A special thank you again to The Beauty Affair, you & your team took so much stress off the bride, allowing all of us to sit back and have the best time getting ready & looking fabulous the entire evening. The Beauty Affair is worth every penny and then some! Don't hesitate booking them, you won't be disappointed. read more

Agne and her team did absolutely stunning hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids. She kept right on schedule, stayed organized throughout my planning process, and even when I changed my mind a dozen times along the way, she was there to talk to me, consult with me in regards to the overall look. The day of the wedding, she was right on time, and me and my girls were treated like A+ celebrities, and Agne and her team worked especially well with my lovely photographer to coordinate a special shoot I wanted to do. She helped keep me calm and I didnt doubt for even a second that I was in the right hands. I looked BEAUTIFUL... she helped me glow. Look no further! She's the best!!! read more

I was blessed to have Agne of beauty affair take care of all of my beauty needs for my wedding which occurred on Thursday May 22 2014 at the Jonathan beach club in Santa Monica. From the moment that we met for the trial a couple of to the prior to my big day I knew I was in expert hands. At her home studio she played soothing music and talked with me about the kind of look I was going for and then she set about transforming me into a bride. I am not a very make up kind of girl, I rarely do stuff to my hair and all I can say is the results were amazing. I loved the naturalness of the look and he romantic style she gave my hair. Agne's overall vibe is so sweet and soothing that I felt comfortable and confident that she would do a good job and she did! On the day she was calm, confident, prepared and when it was time to walk down the aisle she was right by my side checking all the details and I felt great! For any hair and make up needs I recommend Agne highly. read more

You will love the experience, and feel confident that whether or not you're going to a soirée, having photos taken, or walking down the aisle on your big day, you are looking fabulous. read more

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Agne. I have been to countless makeup artists and hair stylists, many of whom are very professional and talented, but Agne stands out among the best of the best. She is very aware you as an individual and what looks best on YOU and what look YOU are trying to achieve. She is a seasoned industry professional as well as an accomplished fine artist. In addition to this, she is just about as sweet as sugar and was so very accommodating. I was having a hell of a day, and kept her waiting longer than any client should ever keep someone waiting and she was unusually understanding and got me all dolled up and ready to go in plenty of time. I would recommend her makeup, hair and styling services to anyone with complete confidence. She has my business for life. read more

Agne did my hair and makeup for an intimate celebration of my husband and I's elopement last weekend and both services turned out fantastically! She's super prepared and knowledgeable and a real pleasure to have around on a stressful, deadline-driven day. Her toolkit is massive and contains quality products. She works very cleanly, is very organized, and also takes any notes in full consideration when doing her job. People couldn't stop taking pictures of my hairdo all night and it -- and the make-up -- held up perfectly throughout. It's obvious this isn't just a day-job for Agne. She is really passionate about make-up design and hair-styling and she's very talented at both. She's my go-to for future event styling! read more

I only slept for 3 hours the night before my wedding day and I was so afraid that I would look tired and exhausted. On the contrary, she made an amazing job making me look exactly like I wanted. She's a real artist. She puts a lot of detail in her work to get to the result that you want. Before the wedding day, she went through all the details of my makeup to reassure me that everything will be perfect. I was very pleased with her work and my makeup remained beautiful until the end of the night. All my bridesmaids loved her work too. Thank you Agne! read more

Beauty Affair - Thank you Agne for the beautiful makeup! - Makeup Artists Near Me

WOW!!! I can't say enough about Agne's work. I had my makeup and hair with her for our maternity photo shoot a month ago. She is both a skilled professional and a really fun person to be around! I loved the look that she created for me, and I also loved how she encouraged me to give feedback on exactly what I want. Not only did I look fabulous after my makeup and hair, but they actually lasted 12 hours plus! :) I also got a lot of compliments from people after our photo shoot. On the business side, Agne is a true professional. She is extremely responsive and organized, and one of the greatest artists to work with. Plus, she's very fun to be around and every interaction with her is so positive. I would highly recommend her anyone, and can't wait for our next event! read more

Agne Skaringa: I really enjoyed meeting and working with Agne. She is very creative and a pleasure to deal with. Innovative, edgy and artistic and not afraid to suggest options that a client might not think of. She did my wedding hair, (for which I got a ton of compliments) and once I saw the quality of her work, I kept (and still do) going back to her whenever I need hair and make up done. She also gives fun and very useful up make up lessons. Overall, she does an excellent job and needless to say, I will always recommend her. Also, her husband Tomas is a great photographer and together they make a perfect team! Thank you again!! read more

Where do I begin... I booked Agne personally for my wedding back in 2020, but due to COVID, my wedding got postponed to 2021, and then to 2022. I signed the contract and made the deposit from a while back. Fast forward to March 2022, I emailed her saying how excited I was to work with her for my wedding and when we could schedule the trial for. She responded saying: "Sorry, I am personally not available on this day, but my artists are. You can find our pricing online and it's changes from 2020. Let me know how many services and what kind do you need and I will get back to you with a quote." I was shocked, and I quickly responded showing the contract to her and explaining to her that this is probably a misunderstanding since we already signed the contract for my wedding day and I already paid the deposit. She responded to this email with this (verbatim): "Yes, I have the contract. As I mentioned I am not available on this day. Let me know what is the best way to return your deposit of $810 back." I was absolutely startled. I couldn't believe I was hearing this from a professional in the business. This happened just 4 months before my wedding date! It took me a long time to truly understand what had happened to me. I had to reach out to other hair stylists and makeup artists and ask if they had availability only 4 months before my big day. I tried forgetting about this incidence and didn't want to write this bad review, but I want other brides to know that Agne is not reliable. Thankfully, I was able to book the hairstylist and makeup artist of my dreams, whom I wanted to book for my original wedding date but they were booked. It seemed that God had better plans for me and for that, I am truly grateful. read more

Agne is a bride's secret weapon to looking naturally beautiful on her big wedding day! With a background in painting and architecture she has a talent for identifying the best shapes and colors that suit an individual's face. With soft, fine strokes during her makeup application she is able to draw out the symmetry in your facial features as it relates to your bone structure. She is able to do this for every race and ethnicity! The best part about Agne is that she doesn't take one approach towards applying makeup. She tailors her work to the individual's style so that a bride's true beauty can truly shine through as opposed to looking generic. Did I mention she is so nice and positive? She knows how to make someone beautiful inside and out. Agne is truly a joy to be around making your wedding process that much more special. read more

Agnes you are the best!! Seriously couldn't have asked for someone better to do my hair and makeup for my graduation.

Agne did a phenomenal job on my hair and makeup for an Academy award ceremony in Beverly Hills. It all turned out better than I could have imagined and I got so many compliments. I was impressed by the photos and reviews here on Yelp, and luckily Agne was available. I thoroughly enjoyed spending the time with her as she is very personable, fun and explained what she was doing. I also really appreciated her awareness and diligence about preventing the spread of germs. I can't recommend Agne highly enough - she is beyond talented! read more

Long overdue review for Agne... She did my hair and makeup for a big milestone birthday back in December and I can't say enough amazing things about her. She is a true gift - extremely talented and passionate about her work and so easy to work with! Although I had sent pics of my dress & ideas ahead of time, I wasn't 100% set on a particular look and stayed open to her professional opinion. She helped to push me a tiny bit out of my comfort zone and created a truly stunning look. The makeup was flawless, and my slippery hair - which has NEVER stayed in place all night- looked natural and held soft curls the entire night. She even saved me unnecessary hair extensions. I LOVED her work and would go back a hundred times! read more

Agne is truly amazing. I just finished taking her advanced makeup class and bridal beauty class and both were truly amazing! I learned so much and she's very patient and kind. She really knows her stuff. I would highly recommended anyone looking to take classes to take classes with Agne. I truly feel like if I went anywhere else I would have not had the same experience. Agne, thank you again for everything! I had an amazing time and can't wait to take more classes! read more

Joelle Pits is an incredible makeup artist. Not only is her work stunning but she has the most incredible ability to make you feel relaxed and confident on before your most important events!! Joelle did my makeup for my engagement photos and my wedding! She made my far from perfect skin look flawless with her airbrush techniques. She has beautiful style that enhances natural features. My husband and I did a "first look," so hair and makeup was done by 10:30am, it was a long day...to say the least...I couldn't be more thrilled with the decision to have Joelle stay throughout the reception. She was incredible with last minute lip touch ups and an expert at keeping my shine under control. My makeup photographed beautifully and lasted all day and night! I can't wait to get dolled up with Joelle again! I will definitely recommend her expert skills to all everyone I know!! read more

Joelle was a dream. I can't wait to work with her again. Joelle is pitch perfect when it comes to the balance of making you feel comfortable in her chair, making you look INCREDIBLE, and contributing focused calm to an environment that will bring out everyone's best work (whether that's a wedding, a professional film set, high fashion, beauty/commercial, headshots, anything. Trust me -- you can trust her. She's a consummate pro, and you will look even better than you're hoping you will.) She's also a fantastic collaborator with other artists. She communicates beautifully with photographers/directors, etc. (when necessary) to bring about a stunning final product. Also, Agne really impressed me with her professionalism too. Even though she was working out of the country at the time of my scheduling needs, she still stayed in touch and made sure every question and loose end got tied up in time for my last-minute needs. You won't find anything better than the world-class team at Beauty Affair. They will take care of you. read more

We were very impressed and our high expectations were definitely met. Thank you to the incredible dynamic duo: Ange and Tomas for making our wedding a fairytale.
