I found Serena on Instagram and am so glad I did! My whole experience with her was amazing. She was so prompt in responding anytime I emailed her or text her. She was flexible with setting up my trial since I lived far from her and work late hours. We had a total of 8 girls to get done in 3 hours and Serena and her assistant knocked all the services out without a problem. She was so professional and so relaxed and fun to talk to and took my change requests from the trial and nailed them on my wedding day! My girls, mom and mother in law and myself all looked and felt beautiful!! Thank you so much, Serena!!

I couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding. From the beginning to the very end and beyond, Serena was amazing, friendly, and a pleasure! She responds in a timely manner, answers all your questions, and is very knowledgeable in cosmetics. I absolutely LOVED my makeup; it was perfectly done. She not only did my makeup, but my entire bridal party as well. I wanted a natural look, and she delivered. She exceeded my expectations. Everyone complimented us on our makeup and how beautiful we looked. I was also pleasantly surprised that the makeup lasted all night. My now husband was very specific on how he wanted my makeup to look. I don't usually wear a lot of makeup, and he was concerned that a makeup artist would cake on makeup and make me look unnatural. He was very vocal and wasn't shy to put his two cents in, and she was great the entire time. When he saw our makeup, he loved it!!! If you're in Temecula or close to that area, I would definitely recommend Serena. She's professional and made me feel at ease the entire time.

Makeup for my rehearsal dinner from Serena

Serena did my makeup for my rehearsal dinner as well as the makeup for my bridal party the day of my wedding. She is professional and so talented and did a wonderful job of making me feel a little extra fancy but also still looking like myself. She is also so sweet and fun and such a joy to be around. I can't say enough good things about her!

Couldn't be more pleased with how my bridal make-up turned out from Serena! She absolutely nailed my vision and was one of my fave wedding vendors that I worked with! I've gotten my make-up done twice as a bridesmaid from her and loved her work so when it was my turn as the bride, it was a no-brainer to go with her! She is so sweet and easy to work with and really brings a fun vibe to the getting ready portion of the day. Plus my wedding day weather was 80 degrees and humid and the make-up stayed ALL DAY!! Everyone commented how good it looked, even 12 hours later at the after party. My bridesmaids all loved their make-up too which is not always typical with other wedding MUA's - usually all the effort is on the bride and bridesmaids get a generic application. But not with Serena! She truly takes pride in her work and wants the whole bridal party to feel and look their best and listened to each individual bridesmaid's vision and tailored the make-up to them. You can't go wrong with Serena for your wedding day make-up; I highly recommend booking her!

Serena is absolutely amazing! She made me feel 100% confident on the most important day of my life. She is so kind, and gives you exactly what you want. I have gotten my make up done a few times before, and always have to make adjustments but with her it was absolutely perfect. It lasted all night, and I received so many compliments. I can't wait for another big event so she can do my make up again.

Serena is the BEST. I met her back in the beginning of 2020 for my wedding make up trial and immediately booked her. Sadly we had to postpone 3 times, thankfully Serena was available for all my new dates. We finally got to have our wedding and the day could not have gone better. I feel like Serena wasn't just my make up artist, she became my friend this last 2 years. My wedding day make up was 10/10 and all my bridesmaids said "this is the best I've ever felt" after seeing their make up in the mirror. We got compliments all night and I would recommend Serena to anyone who is getting married! We actually just booked her again for my cousins wedding in May and I can't wait to get my make up done again by her :)

Serena was awesome and so sweet ! She did my makeup for my wedding, She was super easy to talk to and she made time to make sure that I was happy with everything. Before the big day I had a pimple crisis and she made sure to tell me that everything would be ok and she would still be able to cover it if it was still there on the day of. She recommended a great hairstylist for my girls. The makeup felt light and stayed put for the whole day / night even the next day with out smudging ! The only thing i reapplied was my lip gloss. Mind you my wedding was in Temecula in September so it was around 95- 100 degrees that day. When I washed my face It was easy to take off and I didn't break out after in the days to come. This was huge for me because every time I got my makeup done previously by other places I would always break out for the next couple weeks. Next time I need makeup I will def. be calling her. Thank you !

I have to start off this review by saying (1) Serena is AMAZING, (2) Serena is the sweetest and so talented, and (3) Serena is the ONLY person that has ever done my makeup where I didn't have to run and touch something up or make small tweaks afterwards. I am sooo particular about my brows and she did them PERFECT on the first try. (P.S. she also uses the best products and even influenced me to buy a few!!!) She was so patient and understanding when we had to postpone multiple times due to COVID. When our day finally came she was punctual and made me feel so calm and at ease despite so much craziness and anticipation. Between her and her assistant, she did MUA for me, 9 bridesmaids, and 4 moms ALL before 11:30AM. My wedding makeup was beyond gorgeous. I looked like an enhanced version of myself and I've never felt more beautiful in my entire life. My makeup and lashes lasted allll day until I peeled them off at 3AM. I will MOST definitely be using Serena in the future when I want to look beautiful!!

Serena did my make up for my wedding and she made me look and feel like a goddess! We did a trial session to work out the kinks of how we wanted the final product to look and she even ordered special products upon my request to make sure everything was perfect. The day of the wedding she was so calming, patient, understanding and just an all out super star! She made everyone feel so comfortable in her chair and everyone felt so confident in their make up after having visited her. I would 100% recommend her and use her again for any big event I needed make up done for! Thanks for making me feel and look my best on my big day!

Amazing, talented, sweet, professional... Serena made me feel like the most beautiful bride ever. She listened to everyone of us about what we wanted for our makeup and she went over and beyond. If you want to be able to trust someone to help make your special day stress free and amazing I would definitely go with Serena!! She will NOT DISAPPOINT! Cause I know you're going to book an appointment with her for your wedding day makeup ask her about Chloe!! Chloe did my wedding hair and all of my bridesmaids and did not discount either! They are an amazing team and work great together!

Serena was amazing! I had to postpone my wedding due to Covid, and my original MU wasn't available for my rescheduled date. She recommended Serena and I'm so glad she did! She is so sweet and was so flexible with everything going on. I was so glad to have her on my wedding day!

Love the makeup that Serena did for my family photos! I flew down to Temecula from San Francisco to visit family and take our family photos. I was concerned I couldn't find a makeup artist last minute but Serena was luckily available that weekend despite her busy schedule. Thanks Serena!! Love how my makeup was done and how it looked in our family photos!

Kelsey D.

I can not say enough positive things about Serena! She's been doing my make up for every special occasion over the last 3 years, from showers to weddings she's made me feel beautiful every time! If your looking for someone who takes pride in their work and makes you feel comfortable and beautiful she is definitely your girl!

Serena is brilliant!!! She did my makeup for my beautiful Temecula wedding and there's nobody else I will trust my face to from this day forward. My friends and I were searching endlessly for a makeup artist who would do " natural glam". Serena really knows how to spice up your look but still make you look like yourself. I don't know how I got so blessed to come across her page but ladies.. YOU WILL NOT REGRET BOOKING WITH SERENA! She is such a kind person and I felt like my wedding would not have been the same without her. Love, the happiest and luckiest bride read more

Serena is amazing!!! I was so nervous about having my makeup professionally done because that had never gone well before but Serena was a God send. She made me so comfortable at my makeup trial and put together a look that aligned with exactly what I wanted (even though it was a bit different from the popular style of the moment. Then on wedding day she arrived early and was so great with each of my bridesmaids, listening to their individual needs while still aligning with my vision. She also made some small tweaks from my trial to give me the makeup look of my dreams!! Highly recommend Serena to anyone looking to get their makeup done professionally!! read more

Serena is amazing! I had to postpone my wedding and my first MUA wasn't available but recommended Serena and I couldn't be happier that she did. I loved the way my trial turned out and loved my day of wedding makeup even more. It was over 100 degrees at my wedding and I never had to question if my makeup was smearing, running, etc. Serena really listened to what I wanted and made me and my Bridesmaids feel beautiful. I am always looking for an excuse to have her do my make up again! read more

She has this amazing way to make you feel more beautiful than you thought possible while also keeping you feeling natural and looking like yourself. She was so kind and willing to travel to San Diego, brings her own assistance, her own complete setup, keeps a great timeline that takes all the stress away, and keeps your morning light and fun on your big day :-) I highly recommend Serena for any of your MUA needs and will always be choosing her for any of my own future needs! read more

This review is long over-do, but wow does this woman deserve it! Serena did makeup for my bridal party on my wedding day and went above and beyond. I don't normally wear makeup on the day-to-day and I didn't want to feel like I was wearing 10 pounds of cover-up at my wedding. Serena listened when I told her that I wanted a natural look, and still somehow managed to make me look like a super star! My whole bridal party looked stunning and classy. She is truly an artist. Serena and her partner in crime Chloe (who does hair - also amazing!), worked on 9 of us total on my wedding day and not only made us all look beautiful, but really helped to make my day special. Prices were competitive, they were on-time and professional, and they were so much fun to hang out with all morning! If you are looking for a makeup stylist for ANY occasion in southern CA, LOOK NO FURTHER! SERENA IS YOUR GIRL! read more

Serena is amazinggg! I found her via all her 5 star reviews, and believe me she lives up to the hype! She's so sweet, was incredibly communicative and helpful going above and beyond throughout the planning process, she did a fantastic job doing trials for me, my mom and my mother in law and is great at understanding what you want. The day of the wedding, everyone looked STUNNING thanks to Serena and how talented she is! She is also just such a joy to have on your wedding day and makes everyone feel so at ease and comfortable. I am incredibly picky and usually don't like getting my makeup done because often times I feel like artists over do it and I don't look like myself, but Serena strikes the PERFECT balance of keeping it natural enough to still look and feel like you but also glam enough to feel like an elevated extra beautiful version of yourself for your special day. Also I cried like 8,000 times on my wedding day and somehow this makeup lasted through all that! Highly, highly recommend!!! (Note, I unfortunately don't have any professional photos back yet but I'm attaching some taken via the bridal party's iPhones the day of to show what it looked like) I'm so grateful to have found Serena!! read more

Serena is the real deal. I have been on the hunt for a makeup artist that I really love for years since moving to Temecula. I tried out a few girls out here and ended up trying out some artists in San Diego but was never really happy with their work. It's not that they were BAD makeup artists... I'm sure they did a great job, but I didn't feel like MYSELF after they were done. What Serena really excels at is paying attention to the small details. She doesn't even need to know what I'll be wearing to figure out the perfect color palette that will match with any/everything and make me look like a damn glowing goddess at the same time. I get super excited to get my makeup done by her and have gone to her numerous times now. I cannot wait to see her again, so I can take a million selfies and brag about her to my friends some more. read more

Serena is amazing! I've had several makeup artist all my life for photo shoots and professional photos and no one even comes close to how talented and professional Serena is. Most makeup artists cake on the makeup leaving me feel like thick plaster on my face or it sweats off. I'm very fair skinned and I've always been afraid of makeup artist using too dark of colors but Serena nailed it! She understood my concerns and made my face look flawless and light. I've used Serena several times now for our family portraits, a wedding, bridesmaids and every holiday season she does my makeup for my husband's law enforcement formals. She is my go to! She makes you feel comfortable, confident and keeps you relaxed. I cannot say enough about her work! I won't have anyone else do my makeup! read more

Stop reading reviews and book Serena! She did the makeup for my wedding (Bride, 4 bridesmaids, and mother of bride) and everyone looked stunning! She was super professional, got everyone done right on the timeline, and is so sweet! Everyone was really happy with their makeup, especially me! The look she created for everyone was exactly what I asked her for, natural - but just better. Most importantly, we all still looked like ourselves. It was the perfect mix of natural, and glam. Also, our makeup lasted all day even through a hot July day in Temecula. Don't hesitate and book her before someone else does! She's amazing!! read more

Serena is incredible! Her makeup skills and kind personality are unmatched. I was introduced to Serena at my sister-in-law's wedding about 10 months ago. She did such a great job I hired her for my own wedding. She has the ability to do airbrush make up which I cannot recommend enough!! It doesn't look caked on yet lasts 24 hours (believe me I know, I slept in it :)). You truly will look flawless and feel so confident all day. I will definitely be hiring Serena again! read more

Serena is absolutely amazing!!! I was in a bit of a jam trying to find a makeup artist but one of my bridesmaids recommended Serena and I am so happy I went with her!! We weren't able to fit in a trial run since 2020 was such a crazy year but I showed her a couple pictures of what I liked and she made me feel so incredibly beautiful. Everything about my makeup was perfect and it lasted all night long... Even through the hours of dancing and getting cake shoved in my face! I will absolutely recommend Serena to any bride who is looking for a makeup artist for their special day! read more

Serena is one of the best! Serena did my makeup for a photo shoot for a high end boutique in Del Mar and the makeup came out magically! I had so much fun working with her and was so obsessed with how well the makeup came out that we worked together again for another photo shoot and she worked her magic again! Would highly recommend to anyone! read more

If you are in the area and need an AMAZING makeup artist, look no further. Serena is your girl! Serena did my makeup for my bridal shower and my wedding and I've never felt more beautiful. I've heard that women try a few different makeup artists when looking for THEE makeup artist for their wedding day and that wasn't even an option for me. The second I looked into the mirror I knew I wouldn't find a better match. I received an abundant amount of compliments at my shower as well as my wedding and I was truly glowing. Serena is amazing, professional, punctual and made my wedding makeup dreams come true. And let me also mention, she has the best display of makeup I've ever seen! Perfect for every style and skin tone. Trust me, you will not be disappointed with Serena! She will be my forever makeup artist for every occasion! read more

Serena is not only an incredibly talented makeup artist, sitting with her before my wedding was one of the most relaxing parts of the whole day. As a bride, you can be so wrapped up in stress and details and all of that seemed to just melt away while she worked her magic. She also had 2 moms, 3 bridesmaids, and me done with plenty of time to spare! I highly recommend Serena for any occasion, but especially enjoyed her calm presence on my wedding day. Thank you Serena!!! read more

Serena is AMAZING! I had some bad luck finding a makeup artist for my wedding that could work and understand my skin. I ended up being refereed to Serena and I couldn't have been happier. She listened and took my concerns in consideration when doing my makeup and made me look absolutely FLAWLESS! I was prepared to have to blot or powder my usually oily skin the day of my wedding, but I didn't need any touch ups! My makeup lasted ALL DAY! I really can't express how truly happy I am with her work. She is pure magic! I cannot wait until the next time I get to have my makeup done by Serena. read more

Serena is the best!! I could not have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding! She did my makeup along with 9 others! She brought an assistant, stayed on schedule, was friendly, and every single one of us LOVED our makeup! She listened to everyone's style preferences and did her thing and made everyone from mothers, bridesmaids to the bride feel so beautiful. Prior to the wedding she was also so easy to work with. She is very responsive whether it is email or text and she is very organized. I had a hard time picking out my lip color so she started giving me recommendations based off my skin color, sending photos, brands, asking for updates, etc. She truly went above and beyond and is a professional at what she does! I will definitely be using her again for more events in the future!! read more

I reached out to a few stylists, but Alex was one of the first to respond, and from the very beginning, she stood out to me. Not only was her work stunning, she patiently educated me about the process, was fully transparent and gracious with her pricing, and made sure I knew exactly what to expect! Her communication was absolutely top-notch, she was always quick to respond, and even answered random bridal questions I threw her way (like asking for a wedding planner recs -- shoutout to Cassie @ClassyKayEvents!) Alex was truly there for me every step of the way and made the entire process so easy and stress-free. Beyond Alex herself, her team was just as wonderful! From my bridal preview to the wedding day, they were my ultimate hype women. Kaitlyn (makeup) and Jesica (hair) were both so talented, kind, and professional. They not only made me look amazing, but also made me feel so supported and confident. I should mention -- I'm not a hair and makeup girl at all. I usually only wear makeup for special occasions, and even then it's pretty minimal. But these ladies made me feel so beautiful that I actually wish I did my hair and makeup more often! Also my skin can be temperamental but after their application, I had zero issues. On the day of the wedding, the team was early, organized, and ready to go. Alex had created an incredible timeline for all 11 of my bridesmaids, and her team (Kaitlyn, Jesica, Kari, and Karina) worked seamlessly together to keep everything running smoothly. They were not only efficient but also so sweet and willing to help with anything that popped up. I'm unbelievably impressed and beyond grateful to Alex and her amazing team! They made me feel so beautiful, calm, and special on one of the most important days of my life. My only regret is that I can't relive it all again!

If I could leave zero stars, I would.

In no time the worst part was over and she applied the numbing cream and I was instantly numb. The rest of the session was a breeze! I am so in love with my results and it's only been 24 hours. If you're tired of doing your brows everyday please do yourself a favor and schedule with this brow queen! You will not regret it, I PROMISE! Can't wait for my touch up! :)

We shared our inspiration photos for both hair and makeup, and Alena and Mercedes absolutely brought our vision to life--with a level of care, artistry, and professionalism that exceeded all expectations. Alena, who did our hair, was simply phenomenal. She carefully walked through the inspo photos we provided and made thoughtful suggestions based on our face shapes and event needs. I told her I wanted volume at the crown, but still needed a style that would hold all night long--and wow, did she deliver. My hair stayed perfectly in place for 12+ hours, with lightweight hairspray that didn't feel stiff and a secure yet gentle hold using bobby pins. Alena's approach was kind, open, and collaborative, and her execution was perfection. I truly felt beautiful and comfortable the entire night. Mercedes, who did our makeup, was equally amazing. She matched our references exactly--giving my daughter a fresh, natural glow, and giving me a smoky glam look with a subtle shadow wing that was elegant and dramatic without being overdone. She even added a touch of body oil on exposed areas for that extra touch of radiance! Her attention to detail and commitment to making us feel confident and camera-ready was incredible. The reviews were right--these ladies are magic. I live in San Diego, and I will happily make the drive back to Temecula for my next event. Yes--even if it means going all the way back to downtown SD.

I do not even know where to begin with how wonderful Leah and Brittany are…read more I hired Leah to do hair & makeup for myself and my bridal party, and from start to finish, she was an absolute joy. My trial went flawlessly, and Leah made me feel so unbelievably comfortable right from the start (she is also a perfectionist - which is something you will appreciate on your wedding day). I can honestly say that her and her co-worker, Brittany, were one of the biggest reasons my wedding day was as special as it was. Not only did they make us LOOK beautiful, but they made us FEEL beautiful. My advice for brides-to-be is DO NOT SKIMP ON THIS SERVICE! Leah and her team are more than worth the cost (also, splurge and get the airbrush, it's amazing). Even before the day of, Leah was such a huge support and I don't know how many times she talked me off the ledge or out of my stress (which wasn't even her responsibility) about the wedding. She gave me a list of "nice to haves" which came in SO MUCH handy the day of. Leah and Brittany listened to our every want and need, and completely brought each of our hair and makeup visions to life on my wedding day. I changed and added things (like a true bridezilla) up until the very last minute and Leah accommodated me, no questions asked. Not to mention they stayed for extra time to make sure we were all touched up for photos. If I could recommend her 1,000x a day, I would. An absolute 10/10 experience, from start to finish. I can't thank Leah and Brittany enough for all they did. Don't even think or blink twice about hiring them!

There were a few times I waffled on some stuff (as the communication with the two other girls I was trying to book for would change) but she was very patient and professional. I was able to book her for a Saturday morning. Leah traveled to our hotel room and was very prompt and arrived on the dot of our agreed time. I have to admit, I was kind of hungover from the festivities that took place the night before, but she was just very pleasant and really nice. Normally I wouldn't like being around people when I have those type of mornings, but she was just super chill. She listened to my makeup preference and did a great job with the airbrush application. She even recommended some makeup products and techniques. It was a very good experience and Leah and her hairdresser were so personable that it was like getting your prep done by a close friend! She would even show us funny videos on her phone. We felt really comfortable with her. The results were worth every penny and I am so glad we got the opportunity to work with her. I absolutely can't believe I forgot to yelp about this but I wish I could give them six stars! We were getting compliments left and right. Thanks Leah for the awesome experience and results!

SERENA is absolutely everything I dreamt up and more, I don't even know where to start? Lol She is such a special person, the kindest soul, super accommodating, professional/on top of it, very responsive, has the best energy/vibe, the trendiest and cutest human, and is THE BEST MAKEUP ARTIST EVER!!!! I have never let anyone else do my makeup, I am super particular about it and typically have to make my own adjustments but NOT WITH Serena! When she did my trial I was blown away. She listens to exactly what you want, has a vision, and executes it perfectly. Better than you ever even envisioned. She did my trial, rehearsal lunch makeup, and day of wedding makeup........ and absolutely nailed it each time. I was truly obsessed, she understood the assignment lol and made me feel so confident/beautiful but still myself which is so important during these exciting but overwhelming times! I never even thought to get my makeup done for my rehearsal lunch but being the sweetest human ever, she reached out asking if I was interested in that and I honestly couldn't have been happier that she did. I felt so beautiful, elevated, and pampered going into all the wedding festivities and I am just so grateful for her. She not only made me look INCREDIBLE but was my cheerleader and therapist all at once LOL making sure my nerves were calm and I was feeling my best, which is more than you could ever ask for! I truly know my wedding would not have been the same without her. She showed up early, brought her own assistant, had her entire set up ready to go, and helped get 10 plus ladies looking the MOST beautiful and out the door with more than enough time to spare and have fun before heading to the venue. Every single one of my bridesmaids were obsessed with their makeup as well and you don't always find that. My makeup lasted ALL night..... that is no exaggeration because I was scrubbing it off the next morning (WINNING) LOLSerena is an ARTIST and takes so much pride in her work. Her goal is to have you leaving looking/feeling your absolute best and I cannot recommend her for your BIG DAY enough. Your vendors play such a huge role the day of and I am so indebted to Serena for how she made me feel and how beautiful she made me look! Serena is the only person allowed to touch my face from here on out! LOL so don't walk - RUN TO BOOK her for your wedding day, there is no one else. I LOVE YOU SERENA! read more

If you are searching for a makeup artist, Book Serena Now!! I found her instagram and right away I knew I wanted her to do my makeup for my wedding. Post wedding - I am so grateful I booked her. I can go on about her, but here are a few reasons why she is the best! #1. I am a covid bride so, I postponed on her twice and the third time we had to switch locations. Even though there was a lot of uncertainty I was throwing at her, she was patient and there for me up to the day of my wedding! #2. My photographer had a very strict timeline of when we all needed to be ready and I was worried, but Serena was on time and got all of us ready with some planned extra time for touchups - my photographer was impressed! #3. She actually listens to what kind of style you like and goes with it. I already knew I made the right choice before my wedding day, but to see all my girls vibe with her and love her made me even more happier. I can easily say she is a friend now and I am coming to her for future occasions! Thank you, Serena. You are the best!! read more

You need to drop everything you are doing for wedding planning and book Serena immediately!!! I found her through her Instagram and am so happy that I ended up booking her. Not only is she fantastic at her job, professional and always on time but she is just an overall wonderful human being. I'll break down why I loved her so much below. 1. She is INCREDIBLE at doing makeup. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. All of my bridesmaids were in awe of how gorgeous they felt. 2. She is very organized and always on time. She's so organized we finished ahead of schedule on my wedding day! My photographer was in awe because that never happens!! I was so calm all day because Serena started the whole morning off right. 3. She is just a good kind person. My bridesmaids and I felt like we had another friend there getting ready instead of a vendor. She is a joy to be around and will bring great energy to your wedding day. Overall, I can't recommend Serena enough!!! She was fantastic and I am so grateful for her! read more

I could not have found a better make-up artist then Serena for the most special day! Not only was Serena so sweet when I first reached out to her but she also checked in with me before the wedding, asked if I have any questions and made sure we were all set up for the big day! I live in out of town and was not able to make it to a trial run which can be very scary for any bride. Only seeing pictures made me confident in her work and she did not disappoint. She exceeded my expectations. She was right on time, had the best attitude and was so friendly to my bridesmaids and mother. My bridesmaids and mother looked so beautiful and loved their makeup as well! She is SUPER talented, and knows so much about makeup and cosmetics! Serena made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!

Serena did my make up for my wedding this past July. I LOVED my make up, she did such an amazing job. She is extremely professional, friendly and was so easy to work with. I had a negative experience with another make up artist who was so difficult to work with during COVID, so I was disheartened going in - working with Serena totally changed my mood and I am so thankful to her for such a positive experience. Many of the ladies getting their make up done with me were hesitant and anxious about professional makeup, but Serena & her wonderful assistant helped put them at ease, and everybody loved their make up!

I am super picky when it comes to make up and was hesitant to have someone other than myself do my make up, well let me just say I should have never felt that way! She is such a good listener, took time to understand what I was looking for, and spent a lot of time at my trial making sure I was happy and felt beautiful. She uses all the best makeup that I love, was so sweet and I felt so comfortable with her. She made myself and all my gals look flawless. We all felt so beautiful.

Serena did my wedding make up and I couldn't have asked for a better MUA! She also did ALL of my bridesmaids AND my moms so it was a packed morning but she planned and timed out all the girls so well, we didn't have to worry about anything. She was also able to politely take charge of all of us ladies so we could stay organized and on time. My make up was beautiful, her products lasted throughout the whole day (even when it got a little toasty & breezy). She listened to what I wanted - I told her I dont normally wear a lot of make up so she made me look natural but beautiful and photo ready. Would def recommend! read more

Serena was amazing to work with! She was so sweet and killed my girls & I makeup! Our makeup stayed on all night and looked great! It was exactly what I wanted and didn't look caked on either it was very natural! She did 8 girls makeup the day of the wedding and was on schedule throughout the whole day! Everything ran so smooth! I would definitely recommend !! Thank you so much :) read more

I cannot say enough good things about Serena. She has done my makeup twice, one for my sister-in-law's wedding and once again for mine! She is an absolute magician with makeup, not to mention is a genuinely amazing person. So incredibly grateful for her skills, perfecting my wedding look and making me feel beautiful! She will always be my first choice for special occasion makeup. read more

My daughter and I got our makeup done by Serena for our family pictures and she did an AMAZING job! She came highly recommended by a friend. I was so nervous because I haven't had my makeup done in years. We were both so happy with how it turned out. She made us both feel so comfortable! If I need my makeup done again she will definitely be my girl! read more

Serena was amazing! She gave me exactly what I was looking for. I have very sensitive skin and dry skin and she made sure to take my skin type I to account. Serena was timely and stayed with me to do touch ups after she finished all my bridesmaids! Thank you for amazing makeup! read more
