Hi, and thank you for stopping by! I specialize in creating soft, glowy bridal makeup that highlights your natural beauty and gives you an elegant, radiant look for your special day. My goal is to ensure you feel confident, timeless, and truly yourself as you walk down the aisle. For hairstyling, I focus exclusively on Hollywood waves and soft curls—classic, effortless styles that perfectly complement your bridal vision. Every detail matters to me, and I take pride in making your experience as warm and joyful as it is beautiful. It would be such an honor to be part of your big day. Instagram: xo_blushingbeauty_xo

Leah has done my makeup several times now and from someone who doesn’t often wear makeup, I usually just give her a vague idea of what I want and let her take the reins. She is always attentive and asks me questions along the way to make sure I’m getting what I want. My favorite look so far was on my wedding day! It felt natural for my face/style and held up all day. My bridesmaids all loved their makeup too! I always recommend her to any friends needing their makeup done!

Alameda, CA

    I am a freelance hair + makeup artist specializing in bridal and special event beauty services. Being an artist for over 13 years I take great price in delivering what it takes to be beautiful in your own skin using high quality cosmetics and the most important tool, your beauty.

    I’m SO glad I chose Chelsey! She was such a great and easy person to work with from our first conversation all the way through the wedding, and her work is amazing! The make up turned out BEAUTIFULLY - I wanted the soft glam look from the pictures she posted online and that was exactly what she delivered. I got sooooo many compliments. It held up through plenty of tears. I just got the professional pictures back and the make up looks absolutely stunning. She made all my bridesmaids look amazing and it makes me so happy to see the photos of everyone I love looking so beautiful It was also so fun getting to know her while she was doing the make up. She’s a really awesome and interesting person! She felt like a part of our bridal crew on the day of, everyone loved talking with her while getting their hair and make up done. From a logistics perspective, she was also completely reliable. That brought me a lot of peace of mind when it easily could have been another stressor. She showed up exactly when she said she would and had all the professional supplies. She budgeted enough time to keep things on schedule. I had a destination winter wedding in Yosemite, and a few local vendors warned me that other MUAs sometimes no-show to weddings if the roads are snowy! I brought that up when I first spoke with Chelsey and she immediately gave me confidence that I could rely on her. She was super flexible and professional even when I changed the trial date several times. I finally decided to do the trial the night before the wedding (for the rehearsal dinner), which is of course a risk but I had no regrets! Her price was a little higher than other MUAs I spoke with but, considering the quality of her work and how easy and fun she was to work with, I have absolutely no regrets and strongly recommend her for any brides who might be considering her!!

    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!

She was very communicative, flexible in scheduling, and did beautiful work. She also worked incredibly quickly - my family members were very impressed with how detailed of designs they had on their hands in less than 15 min each. My bridal henna on hands feet turned out incredible and I received numerous compliments. Would absolutely recommend Arati to anyone looking for bridal henna!

    Jasmine is one of a kind! I have known Jasmine before she became Jasmine&Co and she has always had such a kind and helpful spirit. She was the easiest decision with my wedding planning process and I had 2 big events to prepare for. Always had good recommendations for local vendors too!
