I hired Lisa for an in home makeup tutorial. She was wonderful and went through all of the products and palettes I currently own and how to use them. The lesson lasted for about an hour and half and we were able to go over the full face. I have a lot of events I will be attending this year (10 year high school reunion) and wanted to be fully prepared to get glam. She was very informative and showed me her favorite products that I needed (all of which were very inexpensive). Would highly recommend her for private tutorials or day of events ! Thanks Lisa

Hair and makeup by Lisa G!

Lisa G is magical! I have visited her at The Foundation Studios many times to get my hair and makeup done for events and photoshoots and she is the ONLY artist that I will let touch my face and hair! She knows exactly how to give you the look you're looking for, whether it's for a photoshoot, your wedding, or a fun night out, Lisa G is your girl! Also be sure to check out her spray tanning and skin care services! The Foundation Studios has it all, I promise you will not be disappointed!!

My wedding hair and makeup by Lisa!!

Lisa is amazing and words cannot express how talented she truly is! Her makeup selection is extensive, technique on point, and her energy is contagious. I had Lisa do my make up and hair for my wedding day. I was aware of her vast experience and work within the pageant world; working backstage at Miss California USA and Miss Universe; just to name a few. Being a former Miss Illinois, my expectations for makeup were high and my search was very selective. After looking at Lisa's work online and speaking with her for the first time, over the phone, I knew she was absolutely the one! She is one of the sweetest people I've ever met. Her humor and knowledge on the industry kept us busy chatting and my nerves at bay! She also did my moms hair and my two sister's (also former pageants girls ) hair and makeup... They were 100% impressed and in love with their looks as well. I worked with Lisa, from afar, given that I live in Chicago and my wedding was there in California. She was always very quick to respond to calls and emails. We e mailed back and forth with pictures and ideas of the look we were going for. She can do anything! Overall, I highly recommend Lisa for your wedding ( you'll be an ultra glam, sexy bride!), photo shoots, events, or even a night out. I can't wait to get to California and have my makeup done by her again.. Even if it's just for a dinner out with the hubby!

Wedding hair and makeup by Lisa G.

I was planning my wedding in Southern California while I was living in Sweden, so finding a place to do my wedding hair and makeup seemed like a daunting task. I am SO GLAD I found Lisa. I cannot even begin to describe how incredible she is. When I met with her, I sort of had an idea of what I wanted, but she was willing to work with me to try a few different styles until we found exactly what would look best. She is a miracle worker. I got kind of funky sunburn a couple days before my wedding and she was able to make it disappear with her magical airbrush skills :) I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup on my wedding day. The makeup looked natural yet still glamorous, and was perfect for all the photographs, and my hairstyle lasted all day, even after hours in the wind and sun. She was so fun and personable, too. I would recommend Lisa to everyone. I cannot say enough good things about her. She is worth every penny.

If there is one person you need to have for your big day or any special occasion it is Lisa. Lisa was actually recommended to me from our jeweler. Trust me when it comes to my hair and make-up I am SUPER particular so I did my research before I scheduled my first hair and make-up trail with Lisa. 5 minutes after meeting Lisa into my trial I was SOLD. Not only was her personality stellar, but she completely understood my vision and I let my guard down and actually got to enjoy being pampered. Lisa and I did 2 trials before my big day and honestly you probably only need one but I wanted to do one closer to the big day for my bridal shower. I hired Lisa to do my hair and make-up as well as my entire bridal party and mother. Everyone was blown away. We are still getting compliments from our wedding in July from guests on how great EVERYONE looked and how can they find Lisa. Without a doubt Lisa will be my go-to hair and make-up artist for all special occasions she is simply phenomenal!!

Aside from my skin I also receive spray tanning from Lisa and it's by far the most superior tan I have gotten.

I can't say enough great things about Crystal at Bare Body Sugar & Tan. I've been going to her for…read moreover 5 years now, and she is hands down the best. She does all of my sugaring, my spray tans for special occasions, and my brows, and every single service is consistently amazing. Crystal is professional, knowledgeable, and makes you feel completely comfortable the moment you walk in. Her sugaring is quick and thorough, her spray tans look natural and flawless (never orange!), and my brows always come out perfectly shaped. She truly pays attention to detail and takes pride in her work. On top of that, she's warm, friendly, and easy to talk to, which makes every appointment something I actually look forward to. If you're looking for someone you can trust with your skin and beauty needs, Crystal is it. Highly recommend!

I am SO happy I found this gem! I've been in for sugar wax and a spray tans and always leave…read morefeeling like a brand-new woman. She is incredibly gentle, detail oriented, and truly cares about your comfort. The sugar wax was the least painful experience I've ever had, and my spray tan came out perfectly even!! No streaks, no orange, just a beautiful natural glow! Here we are two years later and she officially has her own space!! It is clean, welcoming, and so cute! You can tell she puts her heart into her work and into making clients feel confident. I'm already obsessed and will definitely be returning. If you're thinking about booking... do it. She's amazing!
