Tiffany was an incredible makeup artist for my wedding. I was very picky with choosing my MUA and when I saw Tiffany’s work I knew I had found the right artist. She matched my vision completely and gave me makeup that felt like me but enhanced. I felt so beautiful and confident. Tiffany was so sweet and listened to my every need! Her communication before during and after the wedding was also so clear and organized. Could not recommend Tiffany enough!

I grew up with a deep love for painting and art, and that same eye for detail, balance, and color theory shapes every bridal look I create. This has led my work to be published 45+ times and featured by brands such as Covergirl, Wet N' Wild, Ulta Beauty, and more.

She was responsive to every question and flexible with all of my requests. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early, set up quickly, and was completely ready by the time we arrived, ensuring everything ran smoothly and stress-free. She listened to my feedback from the trial and made every adjustment I requested with no problem whatsoever. I felt so beautiful and completely myself, which is exactly what I hoped for. Her calm, professional, and collaborative energy set the perfect tone for the day, and I’m so grateful to have had her there.

I cannot recommend Mia and her team enough! As an out-of-state bride, I wasn’t able to schedule a trial before the wedding, which made me nervous. However, Mia absolutely nailed the look I envisioned on the very first try, and on one of the most important days of my life. She truly has a gift! From our very first consultation, Mia was warm, personable, and felt like someone I had known for years. She instantly made me feel at ease, listened intently to my concerns, and offered thoughtful suggestions that helped bring my vision to life. In the months leading up to the wedding, I experienced significant stress that even led to unexpected hair shedding. Mia went above and beyond to support me, not just as a stylist, but almost like a coach and friend. She shared hair and skincare tips to help me prepare and feel more confident, and her knowledge and empathy made all the difference. On the wedding day, Mia and Nany created a flawless, glowing look that was so me. It was elegant, timeless, and polished, while still feeling like myself. My hair held beautifully, my makeup lasted all night, and I felt absolutely stunning. Mia is not only incredibly talented but also kind, patient, and professional.

I had a last minute wedding celebration with family and I was able to book Viviana with the Bridal Luxe Beauty Team. She was able to meet me at my apartment in LA which was convenient for me. She brought a whole kit so she had lightning and a chair for me and all her makeup ready. I didn't have a lot of references so she talked it through with examples for me. She gave me a glam look that was still soft because I don't normally wear much. She was also able to get my hair into a beautifully twisted high bun. Both my hair and makeup lasted long into the day and night. I couldn't be happier with Viviana's work. I highly recommend!

I booked her right away and on the wedding day, she came to my place, set up quickly, and we had such a good time talking and laughing as she worked.

Hi! My name is Diva- I've been doing bridal makeup for 8 years. Weddings are my favorite thing in the world! I started my career in glamorous Las Vegas, mastered the bridal business in Austin, and perfected chic no makeup-makeup in NYC. I LOVE my job, and I particularly love the world of bridal. Making brides (and grooms) feel like the most fabulous version of themselves on the most magical day of their lives is an unmatched feeling.

Awarded Best of Zola
I had a very short engagement and wasn’t even sure if I’d have time for a makeup trial. I’m glad I did though because I didn’t look my best after the trial. Before I could ruminate on it or say anything though Diva jumped and sent me a message saying that she knew we could do better. She went and got new products that suited me, which made me feel so special. I absolutely loved how I looked on my wedding day but even more was so grateful to have a makeup artist who truly cared and could correct things I couldn’t put into words. That and she did a fabulous job on my mother and MOH (who has the opposite coloring of me and said it was the best glam she’s ever had). Diva is brilliant and I wish I had an excuse to have her do my makeup again and again!

I have curly hair and wanted my curls out on my wedding day. Finding a stylist who knows curly hair was challenging, but thankfully I found Brandy. She had past experience working with curly brides and was able to show me photos of work. From our first consultation, She was quick to respond to my questions, clear in her communication about the services and timeline, and truly understood the look I was going for. On the day, I loved how she styled my curls. They were big and beautiful, and stayed in place the entire night. My makeup was perfect as well, I didn't want to go too heavy and Brandy was able to work with me on how to keep a natural look with a full face of make up. Her and her team also did my bridal parties make up and it made everyone feel calm, confident and beautiful.

I found Megan because I was searching for someone who knew how to handle bangs and wouldn’t let them fall flat (as mine usually do!). She had amazing examples on her IG of other brides with bangs and I reached out to her. She responded in a timely manner, set up a call with me and planned a trial months before my wedding to be sure I was happy with my chosen hairstyle! I also requested a hairstyle for my bridal shower, the day before my wedding, and she made the trek all the way to Santa Barbara to make me feel beautiful when I was very hungover! Megan was amazing with all of my bridesmaids, mom and difficult grandma on the day of my wedding. I am so lucky I found her online and am grateful she was available to do my hair!

Working with Annaliza and the MakeYourselfUp team was an exceptional experience! Annaliza's talent shines through in her makeup and hair artistry, especially on my wedding day. I was beyond thrilled with the results, and the entire process was seamless and enjoyable. Not only did Annaliza work her magic on me, but she also beautified my maid of honor, and her team did eight bridesmaids, including my mom. The transformation was incredible—my mom looked absolutely radiant and years younger! What truly stood out about working with Annaliza was the ease of collaboration.

Her expertise went beyond just executing my ideas; she also made insightful suggestions that enhanced my overall look in ways I hadn’t considered, making the process enjoyable and stress-free. One aspect that truly impressed me was the team’s punctuality. Annaliza and her team arrived 30 minutes early, ensuring we had more than enough time for everyone’s makeup and hair.

I’ve always loved hair and makeup, so getting it professionally done was one of the things I was most excited about for my wedding. Choosing a HMU artist was overwhelming, especially with so many highly recommended options. Emily Lynn & Co. stood out to me because of their natural approach. Their website had an editorial yet relaxed and fun vibe that resonated with me. As a graphic designer, a beautifully designed brand and website played a big role in all my vendor decisions—but Emily Lynn & Co.'s work truly spoke for itself. I had the pleasure of working with Colette as my lead artist, and I can’t recommend her enough. She made the trial experience so comfortable by coming to my apartment, which was so nice. Colette really understood my vision—I wanted to look like myself, not too overdone, but with a touch of soft glam, and she nailed it perfectly. I also had Josie do hair for a few wedding party members, and everyone looked incredible. The atmosphere while getting ready was fun yet wonderfully calm. I highly recommend Emily Lynn & Co. to anyone looking for a top-notch HMU team!

  • Serves Santa Monica, CA

I'm Desiree, or Dez for short. I've been doing makeup for 12 years and hair for about 6! Doing makeup and hair is such an intimate experience- I pride myself on my upbeat energy and helping set a tone of positivity for such a special day, while making you and everyone in your party look and feel incredible.

If you’re on the hunt for the world’s best hair vibes human, stop now and book Dez. I don’t even know where to start. Because yes, my hair was flawless and I felt SO beautiful (she nailed my vision, it lasted through heat, wind, sweat, dancing, hugging, all of it), but that’s not even the part that makes me scream her praises from the rooftops. It was the energy she brought to my wedding morning. I was nervous, overstimulated, and kind of freaking out- the day just felt so BIG, I wanted to make it feel less big (didn't even put on my wedding day getting ready outfit cuz it felt like too much production and wanted to just chill in my sweatshirt lol), and Dez just floated in like this calming, grounding, magical presence. She made me feel like the “non-bridal cool chill bride” I wanted to be, and it felt SO right. Everyone — my mom, my sister, my friends — were obsessed with her. Like we all raved about her for days. And here’s the extra awesome part... I hired her without even doing a trial (after firing my first HMUA), which felt risky but I felt like I could trust she would do a great job without the trial just based off her vibes in email. But I couldn't have any clue how WELL I picked until that morning she showed up. Dez was just instantly that person you trust, who makes you feel safe and amazing, and who also happens to make your hair look better than it ever has in your life. She even came with a little emergency kit (lifesaver!!), which my makeup artist was supposed to do for me and totally forgot about because she was leaving in a hurry. It’s just who she is — thoughtful, prepared, next-level professional but also the chillest person in the room. Also, if I hadn't already booked a new makeup artist I absolutely would have done makeup with her too!! We loved her so much that my mom immediately booked her to do her and her friend's hair and makeup for the Emmy’s this weekend (!!) because obviously she’s now our go-to for any LA/OC glam moment. TBH if you’re reading this just book her. She’s the one.

Known for passion and professionalism while committing to using high-quality products, Danielle Baum Beauty combines the latest trends with timeless techniques, providing an exceptional experience for every client.

I can’t say enough about how amazing it was to work with Danielle. I did a trial and she did hair and makeup for me and my mom on the big day. Danielle is a complete professional communicating clearly and well in advance on what to expect. She is a seasoned pro - not only were our looks flawless, she paused for feedback periodically to ensure that her work was meeting expectations. From our first conversation, she was able to help me go from not knowing what I wanted to a perfect wedding look! I’d like to call out her expertise in two specific areas - color matching and working with extra dry skin. Most makeup artists don’t match my coloring correctly due to red undertones masking how fair I am. Danielle matched my skin perfectly and hid the redness while still not looking like I had too much makeup on. My mom has extremely dry skin with tan lines from her hair and Danielle’s application was perfect hiding the tan lines and looking perfectly glowy. Both my mom and I looked flawless all day and night. I’d like to give an extra shoutout to Danielle for her incredible EQ! She has a very calming presence and can bring peace and calm when it’s so very needed! I can’t say thank you enough!

I was referred to Mandy by my hairstylist and I am forever grateful. Mandy is a down-to-earth bright spirited professional. Other make up artists tend to push and pull you in a direction. Mandy does the opposite. She knows the questions to ask and creates a comfortable environment where you find yourself talking with a friend. Make up can be vulnerable experience for a bride, and all Mandy wants to do is enhance is your beauty and let your smile come through. She is knowledgeable on techniques, trends, and brands. Working with Mandy was a truly collaborative and fun experience. It was comforting to know that she was always focused on me, ready for a touch up or adjustment.

It all started for me at a very young age. In the early 90's when it was all about fashion and the super model, I would OBSESS over the style network and watch runway shows for hours. Fast forward to post high school choices I went to school for esthetics and also got a degree in natural health so that I could offer an additional layer to my makeup knowledge and services. Not soon after I graduated from school I freelanced for the best cosmetic company at that time. Five years after being a brand ambassador for M.A.C I branched off on my own to open a freelance hair and makeup artistry which I eventually moved to Caliornia.

LA Hair and Makeup did a PHENOMENAL job with my wedding hair and makeup! Ashanta (the owner) is so kind, professional, brilliant, and talented. She and her team did makeup for myself and 14 members of my wedding party, and did everything on schedule and to a very high standard of artistry. All of my bridesmaids choose pretty different makeup looks and Ashanta’s team did it all perfectly. I wanted my own hair and makeup look to be sort of vintage-inspired and natural, and I truly could not have been happier with how my bridal hair and makeup turned out— Ashanta is a genius!!

I would like to say preface my review by saying that I don’t normally wear makeup or style my hair. That being said, I spent alot of time looking through portfolios and meeting with potential make up artists. A friend recommended Deserae Barajas, so I booked a makeup preview with her. During our preview, Des asked me about what I envisioned for my wedding. She was also the only MUA that asked to see my wedding dress and Pinterest board so she could better understand my taste and overall wedding aesthetic. My hair and makeup came out beautifully during the preview, so I booked her for my wedding. The day of my wedding, I looked and felt fxxxing gorgeous! Des did a spectacular job on my hair and my makeup. She recommended that I go with a slightly darker shade of lipstick to better compliment my skin tone, and that made all of the difference in my overall look. I got married on Halloween in Southern California, so it was about 87 outside. The heat made me sweat but my hair and makeup still looked flawless! At the reception, I had a great time drinking and dancing. The best part was that I never even had to touch up my makeup! I looked great! I was glad I invested in Des Barajas because her talent and work made it easier for me to enjoy my day. When I received my wedding photos, my husband and I were both floored by how amazing we both looked. I received a ton of compliments on my hair and makeup, and I was finally able to really see why. My face looked amazing, and my hair was beautiful. Working with Des was really easy and comfortable. She listened to what my beauty needs and concerns were, and her talent far exceeded my expectations. I have recommended her to all of my family and friends, and you’d be a fool to not hire her. The girl works wonders! Thank you for making me look and feel beautiful Des!
