best makeup artist in orange county! dina is amazing! she did my makeup perfect for the ball and her makeup lessons made me feel more confident and now i know where to apply some makeup when i was unsure at first. read more

I hardly ever wear makeup and had no idea where to start, but Dina went above and beyond! I just wanted to learn how to enhance my features, and she made everything so easy to understand. She showed me which products and brushes to use, even did one side of my face and had me do the other so I could really learn. She was super patient, kind, and positive -- it honestly felt like I'd known her for years. She also gave great budget-friendly product recommendations and matched my skin tone perfectly (which is so hard to do!). I highly recommend going to Dina -- she's the best! read more

Makeup by Dina - Makeup Artists Near Me

Dina is very approachable and takes her time explaining why and how to use each product/tool. I loved how her teaching is customized to your facial features and not a rinse and repeat of basic steps. I've hired her before and will continue to hire her for all major events! read more

I cannot recommend Dina enough! She did an absolutely amazing job on my makeup for a wedding and exceeded all my expectations. From the start, she was communicative, kind, and punctual. I showed her an image of the look I wanted to achieve, and she nailed it perfectly--it was exactly what I envisioned! On top of that, we had an unexpected schedule change with the second person in our party needing their makeup. Despite her already busy schedule, she went above and beyond to accommodate us, showing incredible flexibility and care for her clients (which is rare to find). I was blown away by her talent, attention to detail. I will 100% be using her for all my future events and would recommend her to anyone looking for an exceptional makeup artist. Thank you Dina!!! read more

It takes a lot for me to write a review, and the reason I am writing this one is because it really made a difference. I should've written this months ago but of course I'm lazy! Dina is amazing, she got me ready for a family wedding, I have never had such flawless make-up done in the past and I have paid a lot of money for hair and make-up. I do not think I have ever felt so beautiful and so flawless in the past. The products and the finish was just phenomenal. It is a good thing and a bad thing because she is in Southern California and I live in Norcal, now every time I get my make-up done, I am never satisfied because it does not match with her level of work and I expect to look like that every single time. She is not only an artist who just paints the picture, she understands face profile and she understands the shape of your eyes and the type of make-up and style you need to enhance your features which I never knew until she explained it. I hated thick eyeliner, but she convinced me that with my face profile and the shape of my eyes, thick eyeliner would look good and once she did it, I realized how I have been doing everything wrong up until that time. She is very talented and if I could drive to LA every single time to get my make-up done, I would. read more

UPDATE: Anyone who knows me knows I show much respect for individuals as well as businesses. I am an ELITE Yelp reviewer for my tactful and honest reviews. Kindness and compassion from this business was lacking only because the contract was questioned. I will not be bickering back and forth any further. You all can judge for yourself and just be careful to read the contract and question it before you sign it. Contract as is does not protect the client in any way, shape or form. That was my mistake and I admitted it and as you all can see still chose to keep my end of the bargain. To attack someone's personality is a whole new low. People read emails differently I guess. I'm about business and not on a friend level with whom I employ for quick services. To now question if someone is respectful due to questioning a contract is not tactful. I had an important event less than 24 hrs notice the business cancelled my services because all I did was ask questions about the contract and telling this business I was not being thrilled being charged extra fees because I could not make my original flight to DC due to weather which even shut the government down. Please be sure to read full review for all details. UPDATE: I had two days of services scheduled with this business. As you can see by the response from the owner of this business, she was uncomfortable with my email because I told her I could not make it to DC for my first appointment due to weather (government was even shut down) and she still wanted me to pay. I then rose above that and still let her know I would want her for the next day and even pay for the service she didn't give me the day before) yet she cancelled on me w/ less than 24 hr notice because I was not happy that she was going to make me pay for the day before even though I literally could not make the appointment because I wasn't in state yet).. even though I was not happy about a $100 cancelation fee I had told her I would still pay it along with the service she also promised to provide for me the very next day. Thankfully she's right on one thing - I was not a client of her and it all turned out for me as Michelle Obama's makeup artist was able to fit me in and he did an AMAZING job. He was much less stress and drama than this ended up to be. Now, for my original review before response from owner: Holy cow. Worst experience EVER. Because of a horrible storm, my flight was cancelled and then delayed to DC. I was unable to make it in time for my appointment. The government was even shut down!! Dina still wanted to charge me a cancellation fee, even though I explained to her it was out of my control. I had two appointments. One today (which I was unable to make) and one tomorrow. I told her I would let her know about tomorrow / and did so telling her I would like to proceed for tomorrow - however, as you can see SHE cancelled on me even though I told her I would have her money ready for her, just to let me know what I would owe. This is disgustingly unprofessional and just before a large event in DC. Here I am less than 24 hrs without someone to do hair and makeup. I do NOT recommend this place at all. Unprofessional, without compassion and not very business like at all!! read more

Choosing Dina for my wedding day makeup was one of the best decisions I made. From the moment I met her, her professionalism and positive attitude put me at ease.

Not only did she create a stunning look but her calming presence also helped alleviate any pre-wedding nerves.Throughout the entire process, she remained attentive, ensuring every detail was perfect. Her skill and dedication were amazing, her and Yuya really left me feeling absolutely beautiful. I cannot recommend Dina and her team enough.

Dina was referred to me by my hair colorist after I told her that I had given up on finding a makeup artist because I was quickly throwing a wedding together and it was only two weeks away. By sheer luck, Dina was available and I couldn't be more thankful! Dina is a consummate professional - she replied quickly and at all hours of the day. She got me in for a trial within days without any pressure to book her for the actual day. I was so impressed by her talent, so of course I booked her for my wedding. Up until my wedding, Dina was texting me color swatches and inspo looks since I can be super indecisive. She was super patient with my back and forth which kept me calm and assured. On the morning of my wedding, Dina showed up right on time, and was super chill throughout all of the chaos of my family and kids running around. She finished with time to spare and her work was perfection. I have oily skin and the products she used kept me matte all day - even through tears! I have already asked that she do my makeup for another occasion and will continue to use her for every event in the future. Dina really is the best and her prices are very fair. She is worth every penny and more. Thanks Dina! read more

I found Dina on Instagram and needed her for my bridal shower! She was nothing but talented, professional, and kind! Her prices were very fair and she used good quality products. What I loved about her was that she listened to what I wanted, did soft glam on me, and I still looked like myself. She said she likes to research her clients on Instagram to see there everyday makeup so she doesn't do your makeup to look like someone else. My makeup felt very light. In the past, other makeup artists do full coverage and I feel like I'm wearing a mask but Dina applies little by little to achieve that full coverage look without over doing it. I'll definitely use her for future events! read more

Makeup by Dina - Makeup done by Dina. She is the best!!!!! - Makeup Artists Near Me

Dina did my makeup for a Christmas photo shoot. I booked Dina because of her amazing reviews - and she did not let me down. I wear minimal makeup and usually have no clue what I'm doing. I fully trusted Dina to apply as necessary. I came out looking professional and glam. I'm very happy with the results. Dina's studio is conveniently located in Fairfax, but her and her crew can come to you. All of her tools and makeup were clean and laid out - and she made sure to ask me several times if I'm allergic to certain products/materials. I felt comfortable and at ease - knowing she'd take care of me. I definitely will use Dina again for any future photo shoots. read more

I WISH Dina had a Yelp profile for the DMV area too because talk about a versatile artist. Dina not only services California, but also the DMV area on the east coast! And this is an artist you want on your special event day... she just gets it. I am b e y o n d picky with makeup artists... I follow a ton on Instagram, looking for an event to get my makeup professionally done because there is so much talent out there but then when I get my makeup done, I never look like myself. And I always hate feeling unrecognizable just because I am glammed up. Dina's talent is one that captures every girl's natural beauty. She amplifies everyone's beauty, but doesn't make them unrecognizable. Dina is so professional, patient and easygoing, which is exactly what a bride needs when booking vendors for their wedding day. As much as I would have loved to have gotten a trial, my makeup still came out perfect (for two events) because Dina listened to what I wanted as a client. Lastly, Dina is able to do a full range of makeup styles - from glammed out bride to a low key natural bridesmaid look to a special event look for my mom. My mom's makeup has seriously never looked better. Thank you for making us so gorg for my wedding weekend!! I can't wait to share professional pictures :) read more
