I cannot recommend Tawnie enough! She did my makeup for my wedding, and I've never felt more beautiful. Not only is she incredibly talented, but she also has an amazing ability to adapt to different skin types and tones--something that was really important for my bridal party. She is also very kind, professional, and has such a calming presence! We did two makeup trials and she was very perceptive on what I needed to do to get my skin looking the best for my wedding! 100/10 recommend her, and her husband Paul, who was our videographer If you're looking for a makeup artist who truly knows how to make you look and feel your best, Tawnie is the one read more

Makeup By Tawnie - Makeup Artists Near Me

I highly recommend Tawnie! My makeup was absolutely perfect on my wedding day. I did a trial the month before and had shown her inspo pics. She told me that it was dramatic and wow did she deliver! I ended up not loving the dramatic look for myself and told her the areas I wanted to "fix". And on wedding day, she listened to my concerns and went above and beyond! My makeup was exactly what I envisioned and lasted through the next day haha. If I need a makeup artist again I would not hesitate to pay her the drive or go up to her. She is also so friendly and kind you feel like you're chatting it up with a girlfriend. Loved my experience from start to finish! read more

From the moment I first connected with Tawnie to the day of my wedding, working with her and Ruby was an absolute dream! Tawnie is incredible with communication--always positive, responsive, and reassuring throughout the entire process. And the final result? Even better than I had imagined! I booked a hair and makeup trial a couple of months before my wedding, and I highly recommend doing the same! The hairstyle I initially thought I wanted ended up not being the look I went with, so having that trial made all the difference. On the big day, my bridesmaids also had their hair and makeup done by Tawnie and Ruby, and they couldn't stop raving about how long their makeup lasted and how much they loved their hairstyles! I was especially impressed by how Ruby tailored each hairstyle to match their personalities--she's not afraid to get creative, and the results were stunning! As for my own makeup, my favorite part was how comfortable I felt wearing it. I have naturally oily skin, and Tawnie worked her magic to give me a matte, soft-glam look that lasted all day while still making sure I looked like myself. One thing I would consider when choosing a hair and makeup team is their overall vibe--because on your wedding day, you want positive, upbeat energy no matter what happens. Tawnie and Ruby are not only incredibly talented but also some of the kindest, most fun people to work with. I couldn't be more grateful for this experience and truly cannot recommend them enough! read more

Very late to post about my April 2024 wedding, but definitely wanted to put in a good word for Tawnie and her hair partner Madelyn. Tawnie was great for both a bridal makeup trial and for wedding day, doing myself, my mom, and a few bridesmaids. Trial: Tawnie made me feel comfortable and had me check in with her after the trial with hourly photos to make sure it would look good the whole day. I never wear makeup, and she definitely put on a lot of things I can't even name! But it didn't feel like I was wearing a heavy mask which was nice. Even though it was a trial, I feel like Tawnie put in a lot of effort! Wedding day: Both ladies had all the ladies ready on time and looking fab! Tawnie was easy to talk to, and I heard good things from all my girls (and my mom). My makeup looked as good as the trial (and Tawnie had notes so I didn't need to remember anything), and even by the end of the night it still had stayed pretty well. read more

Biggest THANK YOU to Tawnie for being our incredible makeup artist for my wedding day! Highly recommend choosing her and her talented team for all your makeup and hair needs! With 8 bridesmaids, 1 mother of the bride, and 1 bride, her and her assistant were able to transform us and make us LOOK and FEEL beautiful on this special day. Not only is she a pro at what she does, she is very down to earth and embodies such a kind demeanor and relatability to each of our differing personalities. Our bridal party consisted of Asian women with varying shades of brown skin tones, which Tawnie was able to highlight and enhance. Even though I didn't have time to do a trial run, I merely showed her inspo photos and she worked her bibbidi-bobbidi magic. You were such a joy to work with and I can't thank you enough for the special touch you and your team brought in making us feel like goddesses! read more

I am so happy I went with Tawnie to do my makeup on my wedding day! The makeup turned out beautifully, was exactly what I had envisioned, and made me feel like the best version of myself. The makeup lasted all day, even on a very hot day in Temecula. Tawnie was also super flexible with my schedule. I ended up booking makeup somewhat last minute for my wedding but luckily my date was available and she was able to squeeze me in for a makeup trial as well. She also did makeup for my bridesmaids and my mom and everyone was very happy with the results! Tawnie is so friendly and easy to work with - I highly recommend! read more

Tawnie did mine and my bridesmaids makeup for my September wedding and I could not have been happier. During the makeup trial I let Tawnie know that I didn't normally wear makeup and she gave me tips and prepared me for what bridal makeup would feel like. She was open to feedback after the trial and was friendly during every interaction I had with her. Her packages were competitive and easy to understand. For someone who is not used to wearing makeup at all, she made me feel beautiful on my wedding day and I can't thank her enough. I highly recommend booking Tawnie for your wedding! read more

I'm a huge believer in things happen for a reason so when my wedding make up artist canceled on me the month before my wedding, Tawnie and her team were there to save me. I found Tawnie on yelp and decided to set up a makeup trial, she responded in a promptly manner. I LOVED my makeup but it was truly Tawnies personality that sold me. She is such a free spirited and down to earth person and I knew she and her team would be perfect for our big day. The day of our wedding Tawnie and her team showed up on time and brought in all of there supplies to our hotel. My wedding party consisted of women of different complexions, and everyone's makeup came out amazing. read more

Tawnie did such an amazing job on mine, my mom, and my bridesmaids makeup for my December wedding. I found her on Instagram and what drew me to her was her diverse profile. She is so down to earth and easy to talk to which made the process so much easier. She's very communicative and listens to every single detail of how you would like your makeup to look. My makeup stayed put the whole entire day and I didn't have to retouch anything. I even ended up sleeping with the makeup on and the next day it was still intact! I highly recommend her if you're looking for an MUA on your big day. read more

First off, I want to make it clear that I did not have the chance to use any of her services due to poor communication and lack of getting a response. I tried reaching out twice but all messages left on read when trying to schedule a hair and make up trial. I was disappointed bc I was looking forward to working with her but do find the lack of communication a bit concerning. read more

My wedding was 10/18/16 in Temecula, so several months prior I had searched high and low for a professional makeup artist to do my makeup for the big day. They were all either too expensive or would only travel to the venue if several people were paying 100+ each for makeup applications. Feeling a bit down, I hesitantly scheduled an appointment at the MAC store (exterior standalone store) at the mall in Temecula for a bridal makeup application the morning of my wedding. No cost for the application, just must purchase $60+ in product. Okay, cool... get my makeup done and come home with awesome makeup. I came in for my appointment and was helped by Tawnie. She was so friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I showed her what I wanted and she quickly went to work on my face. My makeup turned out beautifully and I received SO many compliments at my wedding! I highly recommend Tawnie and would gladly go to her in the future if I ever needed pro makeup done. Thanks Tawnie! read more

I was determined to find someone who could do makeup well and within my budget for my wedding day. I reached out to Tawnie and immediately knew she was someone I wanted to work with!

She did makeup for 9 people the morning of my wedding and my makeup still looked like it was just done at 11pm that night after dancing, crying, and everything in between. She does AMAZING work and is so professional yet personable. I will definitely be reaching out and recommending her for anytime I need makeup done in the future! Thank you again Tawnie- I got so many compliments on my big day because of you!! read more

She encouraged me to reach out to her if I changed my mind about anything between the trial and my wedding day, which I did. She was also very accommodating when I had a last-minute request from a guest to get her makeup done. Tawnie did a great job on my mom and future sister-in-law as well! We all felt beautiful and looked great in pictures.

Flash forward to my wedding, Tawnie and her assistant Jessica (she needed an assistant because there were a lot of us that needed our makeup done in such a short time frame) and boy were they both amazing! Tawnie brought in her own chair and fancy lighting which ended up look great when my photographer and videographer were shooting the girls and I getting ready. Tawnie and Jessica are professional and we had such a great time with them laughing! My makeup lasted the entire night and I felt so confident in all my pictures! They were finished on time with everybody and didn't leave a mess at all. I also hired Madelyn who partners with Tawnie for bridal hair and makeup and she's great also! Madelyn is super funny and easy going and was very easy to work with! My hair and my bridal party's hair was wonderful and everybody loved it!

Tawnie was my makeup artist for my wedding earlier this year. From my very first phone call with Tawnie--I knew she was my makeup artist!! She was friendly, personable, and made the hiring process seamless. I was first drawn to Tawnie because of her very diverse profile of work. My bridal party was going to range from skin tones, ages, and shapes of eyes (I've got Asian eyes). So it was important for me to find a talented makeup artist that had a wide breath of skills. And let me tell you, Tawnie was absolutely AMAZING!! Not only was she effortless able to transform all of us, but she has such an amazing personality. Her personality was radiant, and she made the getting ready process so much fun!! She was joyful, funny, and oh so talented! We were blown away by her skills; and I truly appreciated her as party of team that made my wedding day absolutely perfect!! All of the gals felt like their best selves, and her presences made all the difference for the day! I'd highly recommend Tawnie for all your makeup needs!! Madelyn was my hair stylist for my wedding earlier this year. Madelyn was the perfect hair stylist, as I had no idea how I wanted my hair styled. Madelyn worked with me until we could successfully figure out what type of style I was actually looking for. Her final transformation, blew me away! And I felt beyond stunning. Although my hair doesn't typically hold curls well, whatever she did lasted through the night!! I was so impressed with her skills and talent! Her personality was wonderful and she joked around with all of us, as if she had known us for years! She was an excellent additional to team bride, and all of my gals felt so stunningly gorgeous. The dynamic duo of Tawnie and Madelyn were amazing to have on my wedding day, and they were such a joy to work with. I'd highly recommend both of them, for all your glamour needs! =) If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would in a heart beat! read more

She was so comforting on the morning of, making me feel like I'd known her for years!!!! I even changed my look day of and had no fear because I trust her so much!!

I hired Tawnie to do my makeup for a wedding with very short notice, and she did an amazing job. She had an arsenal of products at the ready, and was able to recommend a primer that really stood up to my really, really oily skin. My makeup lasted all day, and was on point throughout the event. I plan to visit her again soon to get some pointers and makeup recommendations. Thank you Tawnie! I'll be back. read more

Tawnie is incredible! I had a somewhat last-minute engagement photo shoot scheduled in Temecula with for my sister's photography portfolio. I currently live in LA, so finding a makeup artist on short notice out of town was intimidating, but I'm SO GLAD I found Tawnie! First, she was incredibly quick to respond to emails, so we got the appointment set up super easy. We set up one of her "mobile" appointments in which she comes to you with all of her makeup gear (and more, she brings a chair to make it even easier). The appointment was amazing! I'm typically really shy with makeup and I never do anything too intense or adventurous, and Tawnie was very patient, made sure I was comfortable, and listened to what I wanted and didn't push me into any particular "style." She also answered my questions and gently took the reigns when I didn't know what I wanted due to my complete lack of experience. :P My makeup turned out great -- a slightly more natural style but with the glam to stand out in the shoot. And a bonus: it was an incredibly hot, sweaty weekend, and it lasted throughout the whole day's shoot! :) Amazing! read more

I'm so happy I stumbled upon Tawnie on yelp. Just as others have said, the reviews don't lie - she's your girl! 100% professional, detailed and so kind and fun to have with you - especially on a day like your wedding. I know basically next to nothing about makeup, so I was a little apprehensive about having my makeup done and not being able to articulate the look I wanted. Tawnie might not have even know how helpful she was to me. She checked in all along the way, and we played around with some different options during my trial. After the trial I knew I found my girl. It was a no-brainer. She kept in touch as the day got closer and I never had any doubts or fears that she wouldn't deliver 100%! Weddings can be stressful and it was such a luxury to not have to worry about this aspect. Thanks for everything girl! read more
