    Jasmine is the best MUA! She was very communicative and informative about the whole process. I told her that I like a very soft glam to natural look, and the makeup came out so much better than I expected. I normally don’t wear much makeup but I felt so beautiful with the makeup she had done. The makeup stayed on all day long for both the trial and the wedding day. She was very understanding of the few changes I wanted made from the trial to the wedding day. She also did my wedding hairstyling and I loved it, she knew exactly what I wanted. She did the makeup of my bridesmaids and my Mom/MIL as well. Loved all of it! Thank you so much Jasmine!

    Samantha Keefauver was an absolute dream to work with for my wedding day! From the moment I reached out, Sam was incredibly approachable, knowledgeable, and friendly. The platform she works through was also nice to use as it kept communication streamlined and all in one place (especially since wedding planning can overwhelm you with emails). She took the time to understand my vision and was so patient in walking me through the process. On my wedding day, Sam and her entire team were consummate professionals.

    I have always been passionate about beauty! When clients ask me how long I have been doing this, my answer is: "I have about 13 years of experience doing makeup but 7 years doing makeup professionally". I started off initially doing makeup for friends and family, then family friends + friends of friends. I then got a job working at Sephora where I learned a lot about products and working w/ different skin types/tones, ages and styles of makeup etc for 7 years. In 2018 I decided to assist another bridal MUA and that is where I was introduced to the bridal/wedding world & I have loved it since! Booking 2025 weddings now!

    Makeup by Danica Roe was a pleasure to work alongside with for our mutual bride. As a professional photographer, timeliness and make up is so important to us when photographing weddings. Danica had our bride ready promptly and beautifully. The quality of her work was excellent - it looked smooth, matte, and soft. She demonstrated patience and took direction well when posing for photos. I appreciate her friendliness and wanting to help pose with our bride for some “touch up” photos.

    Awarded Best of Zola
    Ngan's team did hair & makeup for myself, my maid of honor, my sister, and my mom for my wedding at the Claremont Hotel on 10/12/24. I found Ngan through Zola- she stood out because her website was very straightforward (both pictures and prices included) and because her pictures were aligned from what I wanted ("my face but better"). I also specifically wanted someone who could do both hair and makeup since it was one less vendor to worry about finding. Ngan clearly knows what she's doing. Her emails are VERY detailed and straightforward. I did the trial 2 weeks before and she was extremely patient in making sure I looked how I wanted and made adjustments as necessary. I would highly recommend doing the trial- it made getting ready smoother before the wedding, plus my fiance (now husband) and I took advantage of the results of the trial to do a nice dinner later :). Ngan did my hair and makeup for the wedding while a senior assistant (Marilyn) did hair and makeup for my MoH, sister, and mom. It was a very relaxed but productive atmosphere- my sister and MoH literally were doing their nails on the floor of my hotel room while the rest of us got our hair and makeup done. There were multiple conversations going on among the five of us, and it felt pretty natural. Marilyn also made some recs regarding my mom's hair since it was on the shorter side and she wanted curls, but the pictures I found on Pinterest were for hair slightly longer than hers, and my mom ended up looking great! She looked really happy. I'm only giving Ngan and one other vendor I worked with for the wedding five stars- she and Marilyn were such a great fit for us. Her pricing is also VERY fair, especially with how happy we were with the results. 100% would recommend to others!
