Heather and Tiffany did an amazing job! They arrived promptly on the wedding day and were quick and efficient. Their prices are very reasonable and their services are easy to understand. After a short description or inspiration photo, they immediately understood what each person wanted and got it right every time. Heather also styled my husband's long curly hair into a beautiful braid. She is the only one he trusts with his hair from this point forward! We had so much fun with them and made us all feel our best!

Beauty By Ayleen 

5.0

  • Starts at $300
  • Serves El Cajon, CA

Hi! My name is Ayleen and I have been a makeup artist for 5 years. In my few years of experience I have been able to learn a lot from working in photoshoots, along with other artists and at countless weddings. From my first bridal makeup I’ve done on a close friend, I knew that’s what I wanted to do as my job. It took a few years to build my career and I am so glad I chased after my dream of becoming a bridal makeup artist. My favorite part of what I do is being able to be a part of such a special day in your life and there’s nothing that makes me happier than making girls feel their best.

Awarded Best of Zola
My mother and I did a trial with Ayleen prior to booking and immediately knew as soon as she arrived that she was our gal. She is so organized, very communicative, and just so talented. I also love that she continues to learn and improve her skills! During our trial, Ayleen first took the time to understand what our skin concerns were (mom having dry, aged skin and myself having oily skin). She took that information and did the appropriate skin prep to have our makeup stay on all day. My mom was absolutely blown away by her makeup and felt so beautiful! I ended up going with a look that turned out to be a bit too warm on my extra-pale skin, but Ayleen had the knowledge to suggest something that will work better for my complexion! However, the look was stunning, falsies applied flawlessly, and overall it was blended to perfection. Do yourself a favor and book with her now while she’s available! Pro tip: if you’re extra pale like I am and are planning to get a spray tan for your big day, do it for your makeup trial as well! It will give you a much better idea of the final look:)

Reveal did an incredible job with my hair and makeup as well as my bridesmaids and the mothers. I got many compliments on both my hair and makeup. My makeup was especially fabulous and lasted all day and night even through my tears and all the dancing. Bridal hair and makeup was 320. The other girls were 220 for hair and makeup. If you wanted just one service, it was 150. I found these prices to be very reasonable. The girls came to our VRBO the morning of and worked efficiently and were very nice.

Styling with Jena

Hi! My name is Jena, a hair and makeup artist based in San Diego, California and Napier, New Zealand. Managing my time between these two locations, I've recently established a skilled team to support my services while I’m away. Each stylist has been personally chosen to align with my style - specializing in timeless and romantic hairstyles with textured twists and braids or a classic updo. My makeup services offer both traditional and airbrush options with complimentary lashes and high-end professional products for a long-lasting, flawless finish. This ensures you maintain your best look throughout the entire day!

Very happy I went through Jena to book my hair and makeup services for my wedding! Her pricing and low service minimums were exactly what I needed since I had a smaller party. I also appreciated her flexibility for me to add additional services later. She wasn’t available for my wedding day so she referred other artists from her team - Pam and Amelia. Both did amazing jobs and loved their energy the morning of the wedding!

Hi and welcome to Natalie Rose Beauty! My name is Natalie and I am the owner and founder of Natalie Rose Beauty! My passion is to make my clients feel like their most beautiful self. I want them to know and trust, I am here to make their day easy, relaxed and special. Honesty is the best policy in my book and I will never steer my clients in the wrong directly. I vow to always collaborate with them on their Wedding Day look so they feel perfect. At the end of the day when you're working with Natalie Rose Beauty, you are working with someone who truly cares about you and how you feel on your Wedding Day.

I worked with Natalie for my wedding in October 2023. I instantly loved Natalie’s portfolio because it gave ma a very natural vibe. I am someone who really doesn’t wear make-up, so it was very important to me to have that “wedding day beautiful” look but also stay true to myself and look natural. Natalie is very easy to work with when it comes to her communication and professionalism. She is very detail oriented and gave me advice on timelines and other things I hadn’t thought of. I had a fun time at our initial trial for hair and make-up. She is a great listener while also bringing her own thoughts and ideas to the table. On wedding day, her and her team showed up and we had a great time. Myself, the bridesmaids, and even the mothers all expressed to each other how impressed we were with their work and how we all felt naturally beautiful. As the bride, i felt a lot of emotions that day and Natalie also was a great support in calming me down and supporting me. Natalie made me feel so beautiful and comfortable with flaunting it!! I had never felt that way before in my life. I cannot recommend her enough. I hope there is another time in my life where i can work with her again.

I at the time of my wedding had hair that reached just below my chin at its longest! Unless you knew me and saw me frequently you would never have guessed! I had a vision for my lips-a specific color, and when I told Kandra this she said great let’s do this. Kandra did my makeup for both my engagement photos and wedding day, she also did my hair on my wedding day. She worked magic! My hair stayed all night and even more impressive in my books my makeup still looked good 12 hours later! I took a pic and sent it to her the next day.

Specializing in working with brides and bridal parties on their significant day is undoubtedly the most fulfilling aspect of my role as a Makeup Artist. The dynamic and high-energy atmosphere of weddings is where I not only excel but find my passion deeply ignited.

I could not have been happier with my wedding makeup! I felt so beautiful. I typically don’t wear a ton of makeup and I felt like Bonnie did a wonderful job balancing a natural look that came out well in photos without making me feel like I had a mask on. I got so many compliments. I also have pretty sensitive skin and we were able to use my trial to not only discuss what look I was going for, but to also figure out what products were gentle enough for my skin before my big day. All of her products are cruelty-free, which not only helped with my skin sensitivity, but it was also important to me as an animal lover. Bonnie was timely and professional. I highly recommend hiring her for your special day!

The quality of her work was flawless - my makeup looked natural and absolutely on point, and it lasted the entire day without a hitch. She had included two makeup trials prior to the wedding so I knew exactly what to expect, and she was more than happy to cater to requests from my bridesmaids as well. I chose to go with the airbrush makeup option, and it was so worth it - my makeup stayed perfect from start to finish.

From the bridal trial to the day of timeline for my wedding party Dana handled it all so that I didn’t have to worry about thinking about anything more than I needed to. Bri was able to get curls to set in my friend with straight hair and my mom said that she never had such great lashes done in her life. I also love that Dana was able to cut and style my hair in advance so that it was perfect and ready for wedding day with one less appointment to worry about.

I have been passionate about making beautiful brides for over 25 years. I have a special talent for transforming people and enhancing their best features. Your perfect look is my goal and I want to exceed your expectations! Bride only or larger groups are all possible. I also offer First Dance lessons. The first dance can be daunting and very scary so I make it simple and easily accomplished in just a few lessons. Lessons are private so you feel more comfortable.

While searching the Internet for a make-up artist for my wedding, I stumbled upon Makeup, Hair & Dance by Meleah and, boy, am I happy I did! Meleah is great! She is quick to respond (unlike so many other makeup artists I had reached out to) and is so accommodating. At first, I just wanted my makeup done, then I decided to add my hair, then my fiancé decided to have his hair (and makeup) done, then we decided to have her teach us some dance steps, and the list goes on! For each addition, Meleah was happy to take on the task. On our wedding day, my hair looked fabulous, my makeup was impeccable, my fiancé looked very handsome, and our dance was so much fun! We had a wonderful, memorable day, but it wouldn’t have been nearly so wonderful without Meleah’s help. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to have found her!
