I'm not used to wearing heavy makeup, and she found the perfect balance in making me feel done up, while also feeling comfortable/like myself. She is punctual, and a relaxing presence to be around while getting ready for what can be a stressful day. I'm Indian and initially incorrectly thought I needed a South Asian HMUA, but Chau did a fantastic job with both makeup and my hair, placing the tikka, and securing jasmine flowers to my hair. Highly recommend Chau!

I originally had her assistant at one of the weddings and felt my makeup was decent but not the way I would like for our wedding. I went to another artist for a trial but felt like she wasn't able to execute what I was asking for. In reality, I shouldn't have gone on a search, I came back to Chau and her attentiveness and consideration was worth it! She knows what she is doing and I could trust her the entire process. My makeup was prefect! She covered all the areas I requested and prepped the makeup in case of tears. My hair was beautiful and she knew what to do to accentuate the accessories I had. Her assistants are skilled but may be off the mark sometimes. My bridesmaid's foundation was a few shades too light as she has a darker complexion. She didn't notice until after everything was already on and didn't want the artist to redo all her work. It was still decent but something to keep in mind. Don't look any further for a makeup artist as she is worth the price!

Roya immediately responded which I appreciated because it was so last minute and I needed to find someone and I'm glad I found Roya. First, when I say Roya has everything, she has EVERYTHING. From skincare to prep your skin, to makeup, to brushes, to etc. which was nice because I forgot my foundation but she had the makeup foundation I use and color! Phew, I was saved. I showed Roya what I was wearing and what I don't want and I let her do the rest. After all, she is a makeup artist and she knows what is best therefore I trusted her and she did not disappoint. Roya is great at enhancing your beauty and making sure your face is not all caked up. The hardest part for me with makeup is putting falsies on since my eyes are sensitive and I tear up but she let me know that she is great at it and I won't feel it or tear up and guess what?! I didn't!!! I was so shocked and amazed!!! Overall I fell in love with my makeup, Roya is wonderful and definitely someone I will return back to for doing my makeup! I am so excited for another event so she can do my makeup. My makeup lasted my whole photoshoot and throughout the night! Thank you roya!

She made me feel confident by enhancing my natural features instead of overdoing it. She really listened to my preferences and offered guidance when I wasn't sure. The result was soft, timeless, and perfect for photos. She also gave me great advice for touch-ups to make sure I stayed photo-ready throughout the day. Beyond her skill, Chau has such a warm and calming presence. She made the whole process stress-free, which was exactly what I needed before my engagement session.

She answers your questions in a timely manner and very professional. You can tell that she is very passionate about her works. I was not sure if I need her to stay to do the touch up after the ceremony. She suggested that it is not necessary. She left me some lip makeup for the simple touch up if needed. Her makeup lasted more than 8 hours without any problem. Strongly recommend! I wish that I can give her 10 out of 10 stars instead of 5 stars on yelp. She is super creative, easy to work with and provide you with suggestions based what you prefer. Thank you Nina - You made my day..

We had the pleasure to work with Grace and had an overall pleasant experience. From beginning to…read moreend, Grace was extremely detailed and thoughtful with understanding all of my requests for my bridal look. The best part about Grace was that she was always extremely responsive and flexible with scheduling. She helped guide me through different hair accessory options and provided detailed advice on what type of hair extensions I could consider. Before the trial and the wedding day, I prepared a brief slide deck that included photos of my vision and my wedding parties' preferences. She always communicated ahead of time so I could ensure the team was well prepared. During the trial, Grace was extremely cooperative in aligning my trial with my engagement photoshoot. She was super flexible and listened to all my feedback during the session. For example, she noted my oily skin/eyelids, was attentive to how I preferred my bangs, helped add volume to the areas I was concerned, and even included some of my favorite makeup products that I brought along with me. We communicated very well and it was such a joy to work with someone that I vibed so well with! The trial experience made it easier for me to trust in her completely during the wedding day. On the wedding day, Grace was very thoughtful and considered the proper amount of time her team would need to complete a round of hair and makeup for a group of 10, including the bride, groom, bridesmaids, MOB, MOG, and sister. Their team arrived on time and setup was completely seamless. I really appreciated their thoughtful consideration to layer in good quality skincare to make the makeup long lasting. Grace was also super helpful in leading her team, by helping touch up after hair and make up were completed by the other team members, and checking in to ensure the team was not running too far behind. As expected with all hair & make-up prep, there are always a few delays, but Grace was able to ensure that everyone caught up on time smoothly and was ready by the agreed time of 12:30PM. Specifically for the bride, Grace did an amazing job! I was so grateful to work with her again after the engagement shoot and easily enjoyed the few hours together. Grace was very gentle and put a lot of thought and care into my overall look. I appreciated how Grace always took my feedback into consideration. For example, I was very comfortable speaking with her about when my eyelashes or hair extensions were placed in an uncomfortable position. As always, Grace ensured I was comfortable and happy with the final outcome. I was also soooo thankful that Grace was around during the wedding day since the weather was quite hot. I appreciated how Grace took time to touch up my makeup and hair constantly during the photoshoot. She was so patient and caring and it's a great quality to have as a HMUA. Our bridesmaids as well were quite happy with their hair and makeup looks and the team was very friendly and accomodating. Half the girls got up-dos and the others got half up-half down hairstyles that lasted the entire night! The groom also was satisfied with his look and looked younger than ever Overall, we highly recommend Grace and her team! They were all so professional and sweet! Grace also provided complimentary services throughout the evening that were much appreciated! Thank you again for supporting our entire day from beginning to end! You're the best!! Can't wait to use your services for future events as well

I don't normally wear a lot of makeup, and I wanted to feel stress-free and beautiful on my wedding day.

Grace and Selina, her assistant artist, created such a peaceful atmosphere for us as we were getting ready. It was an extra bonus that they could speak Chinese with my mom and mother-in-law, so they both felt really comfortable communicating their preferences. They arrived on time to our very remote venue and even finished 15 minutes ahead of schedule! Between the trial and the wedding day, Grace was always warm, professional, communicative, and receptive to my needs. She really listened to all of my feedback and understood my particularities, my dry skin and made all the adjustments I wanted so I would feel 100% happy.
