Glam My Face By Sara 

5.0

  • Team of 4
  • Starts at $1,245
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

Welcome. Whether it's your big day or a special occasion, I want you to be comfortable. Whether its subtly enhancing your features for a more natural look or an eclectic colorful style, my experience will help you look and feel your best! My experience with a variety of Skin Tones, Skin Types, Facial Features, Ages, Ethnic Backgrounds, and Customs has allowed me to achieve a wide range of desired looks, precision, and detail. Making you happy is my Number 1 Priority.

Sara did my makeup for my sister in laws wedding. I don't wear makeup often and she took all my concerns into account because I wanted a subtle glam. During the process she makes you feel relaxed and even though I knew she had 3 other people to work on I didn't feel like she was rushing, it felt like I was the only one. To say I felt beautiful in an understatement. I felt like no one could tell me anything! Even my husband who "prefers natural" had his breath taken away. It lasted through the wedding and dancing all night!

I have known Analissa for a long time, as we have a friend in common. When it came time for my wedding, I immediately thought of her, as I had seen firsthand how beautifully she had done our friend's hair. I had given her an inspirational picture of my hair, and she did miracles with the volume and length. ' Til this day, I think, I looked the most beautiful I ever have. And considering my husband and I continue to be happily married, some credit must go to Analissa. I'm so glad she could join us in this celebration as well. She is as sweet as can be, listens to what you have in mind, and gives suggestions for improvement. I 100% trust her with my hair and makeup. Don't hesitate; she will become your right-hand girl on all your special occasions. Thank you, Annaliza, for making me feel special and like the most beautiful woman on our special day.

LA HAIR AND MAKEUP

  • Team of 5
  • Serves Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

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 highly recommend Blushed by Brink for anyone looking for hair and makeup in the San Diego area! Madison was so kind and an absolute joy to talk to/work with. This was my first time having my makeup done professionally and Madison was so patient with me, listened to all my feedback and made changes accordingly, and even let me do a second makeup trial to make sure I was 100% happy with the final result. Day of the wedding I changed my mind regarding the positioning of the low bun and even though we were short on time, she completely redid the bun to make sure it was exactly what I wanted. Hair/make up was definitely the thing I was most nervous about because I'm so particular, but I felt so comfortable and confident and truly felt like myself. Highly recommend Madison and Blushed by Brink for your wedding day!

Jenn did an absolutely astounding job for my wedding day along with my rehearsal dinner and engagement photos. She brings a calming authority to the day which helps keep everyone on schedule and kept me relaxed and in the moment. She has major talent and skill but didn't make me look unlike myself. I looked like the absolute best version of myself but I didn't feel like I was caked in makeup either. I have scheduled her for other friend's weddings and will continue to use her for all of my makeup needs as she truly is professional artist.
