She was so easy to talk to, and it was a delight to spend my wedding morning with her. We had 7 people getting hair and makeup done, and I didn't want us to have to start too early, so she brought along two other artists, PD and Cherry, who were just as amazing. I cannot recommend Marie enough!

Marie and her assistant PD are skilled and talented makeup and hair artists, and they made me, my mother, and my best friends/bridesmaids feel so beautiful and loved on my wedding day this past Saturday in San Diego. They were super professional, punctual, and so much fun to hang out with for the hours of makeup and hair prep before the wedding. We all loved our hair and makeup, and it stayed perfect throughout the entire night, even after we got off the dance floor! We received so many compliments throughout the entire night too! I really appreciate all the personalized details they put into each girl's hair and makeup, and I especially appreciate them for being so accommodating to also fix my cousin's makeup as well - she absolutely loved her look and it means so much to me that you were able to help her at the last minute. They also did makeup for my husband (the groom), and it looked so natural and his skin looked flawless for all the photos. Thank you Marie and Luna Bella Beauty team for your artistry and for being a part of our special day! I give my highest recommendations for your hair and makeup styling services!

I found her Instagram account, and she was very responsive to all of my messages, and I was able to book two appointments with her; a wedding day trial and one for my wedding day. She was very patient and cooperative with me, especially when I wanted a more glittery glam look for the game day compared to my trial run. Even though I didn't book hair for my trial run, Nikki assured me that she would be able to, and I'm very appreciative that I let her for my wedding day; my hair came out beautiful, voluminous, and lasted all day. Lastly, I don't regret booking with Nikki and recommend to anyone looking for any hair and makeup services.

Sophia is truly exceptional. As a returning client, I can confidently say her consistency,…read moreprofessionalism, and talent are unmatched. I came back to her knowing I could trust her completely, and once again, she exceeded every expectation. Her makeup is natural, radiant, and long-lasting. I don't typically wear makeup, but her application felt light, breathable, and incredibly comfortable all day and all night. She takes the time to truly listen and brings your vision to life with precision and care. She's also so easy to talk to--like catching up with an old friend--which makes the entire experience even more enjoyable. Beyond her artistic skills, she has a rare ability to make you feel beautiful inside and out. Highly recommend!

Her seeming-less style and delicate touch easily stand out from many others (you know, sometimes the makeup is too strong, and you look like a zombie? With Lynn it will never happen). She has the talent to see people as who they are and tailor the one-of-a-kind makeup that's designed only for you. She will spend HOURS with you, even for a trial session, to make sure you look like a dream. And the result? You won't even believe the goodness in the mirror is you A word of tip? Nothing! She's got it all!! The makeup, the hair, and the love. During my wedding weekend, she's never left my eyesight - As a matter of fact, I saw her more than my mom, lol.

Lynn is professional, friendly, extremely talented, and most importantly, her makeup skill is superb! I showed her pictures of the outfits that I would be wearing, and she was able to give me ideas on what makeup style would look best on me based on the outfits as well as my facial features. I was able to tell that she really loves her job. She is very detail-oriented, and she went above and beyond to make sure that my makeup and hair look perfect for the wedding. And it did!! I was sooooo happy to see the way it turned out. And I received so many compliments! :) I cannot say this enough but LYNN IS THE BEST!!!!!

She was incredibly professional, arrived right on time, and came fully prepared with her kit. I can't recommend her enough for any special event. She made all of us feel confident, beautiful, and completely taken care of from start to finish.

After our preview- I felt so comfortable to let Kori know what tweaks I wanted. I ended up choosing a different hairstyle from what we trialed and it was better than imagined. So convenient to have her just work on me and then help with touch ups especially after the first look and for family portraits which we did before she had to leave at 1pm. Makeup and hair lasted all day long and I cried a TON! Of course I had to do some touch ups but the glowy base remained all day long. Thank you so much, Kori! Highly recommend investing in and trusting in Kori for your special events

Anna created the natural makeup look I was going for and worked a miracle to arrange the updo I wanted, which I was worried wouldn't be possible with my very short, thick hair! Everything lasted all day - from the 6:00am start time, to a 10:00am courthouse ceremony, to hiking up a hill in the afternoon during a 95 degree heat wave for photos, and until the reception ended at 10:00pm.

Trang is not only incredibly talented, but she's also genuine, patient, and attentive. She listens to what you want, offers options and suggestions, and makes sure you feel comfortable and confident. You can truly see how passionate she is about what she does. I felt so comfortable with her almost instantly, and that meant so much to me. Wedding mornings can be stressful and overwhelming, and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist by my side. She was so attentive, even to the smallest details. I vividly remember her squeezing her way in during our photoshoot just to apply some glowing lotion to my arms and neck to make sure I looked my absolute best. It was such a small gesture, but it spoke volumes about how much she genuinely cares for her brides. I'll definitely be keeping in touch with her for future photoshoots, makeup appointments, and even hair balayage! I couldn't recommend her enough.

As someone who knows next to nothing about hair and makeup, Kelly was incredibly patient, kind, and helpful throughout the entire process. We did two trials, and while the first makeup trial wasn't quite what I was looking for and the second got much closer, I still wasn't 100% confident we had landed on the perfect look. I tried my best to explain what I wanted, but I just couldn't quite put it into words. Somehow, Kelly understood exactly what I was envisioning and absolutely nailed it. My bridal look was everything I could have hoped for! I wish I had my wedding photos to share because the final look was everything I dreamed of, but I couldn't wait any longer to post this review! I'll include my hair from my 2nd trial instead, which is what we went with. Throughout the process, Kelly never made me feel rushed or dismissed my concerns. She truly listened, offered thoughtful guidance, and worked with me every step of the way until we got it right. She was so easy to work with, genuinely sweet, and her entire team was wonderful. I couldn't have been happier with my experience and would recommend her to any bride!

I made an excellent choice. Kelly's studio is adorable, and even on a Sunday she accommodated our schedule. She listened to our preferences and worked her magic with so much ease. She used airbrush makeup on me, and I was honestly impressed by how fast and flawless the whole process was. I was in and out quickly with both hair and makeup, and she did gorgeous hairstyles for my two daughters as well. I highly recommend Kelly. I have a huge family in Orange County, many in that wedding-filled season of life, so I'm sure I'll be back for her services again. Thank you, Kelly!

I am leaving this review after a 6-month reflection period to warn future South Asian and…read moreolive-skinned clients. I was booked with this salon for an Indian wedding event, and the service was a complete failure for the last event when a new artist subbed in. The artist demonstrated zero training in color theory for olive skin tones, applying a foundation that was completely mismatched, pale, and gray/ashy. When the mismatch was brought to her attention on-site, she first refused to acknowledge it and then couldn't correct it, causing me to miss the scheduled professional photography windows.When I contacted the salon owner later with clear, side-by-side photographic evidence comparing their work to a correct shade match from a prior event / artist, the owner attempted to blame our timeline and completely stopped responding. They will gladly accept high-paying South Asian event bookings but lack the skills, product kits, and customer service to back it up. If you have olive skin, do not risk your major events here. Uploading this is uncomfortable because it does not represent how I look, but I am sharing it to ensure no other South Asian woman goes through this. On the left is the flat, grey, mismatched mask this salon called a 'professional match' for my clear olive skin. On the right is how my skin actually looks when matched by a trained professional (the prior artist I had with the salon) who understands warm undertones. Do not risk your important memories here.
