I'm looking for someone to do my makeup on my wedding.
I tried to do some research on the internet, but most of them are caucasian, and I'm afraid they don't do a good job on asian ppl.
Could you gals recommend some to me?  Do they have a portfolio on the internet?
Thanks so much!

Eva is very good at hairdo, and her make up is good as long as you tell her what u want
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-17 11:46

Thanks Icing!  I'm just looking for a very natural look and simple hair style, so I hope it won't be too hard to find one.
作者: vincy    時間: 2009-5-24 12:15

I hired a lady for half a day from spa to do the make up for me on my wedding. It wasn't expensive and the result was good.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-24 17:13

how much was it? so she stayed there to do retouch for you?
作者: lizzie    時間: 2009-5-26 07:46

I hired Mindy from Lovely Wedding Studio.  $250 for hair and make up and re-touch.  I am a very fussy person and I've got to say that I am really impressed with her service.  Absolutely no complain.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-26 20:59

thanks lizzie, Does Mindy has a portfolio?
作者: lizzie    時間: 2009-5-26 22:28

Here is her website, she does photo packages but I didn't go with that.  I just got make up and hair from her, and rented a Qwa.  My Maid of Honour's make up was absolutely gorgeous too.  You can do a hair & make up trial for $100, which I did as well.

Tell her that you are refer by Liza who just got married.  She will remember me.

Congratulations lizzie! I have to agree with how nice the makeup turned out!
btw. I know your MOH that's why I have seen some of the pictures.

作者: fibbi    時間: 2009-5-27 13:34

Mindy did my makeup too! Nice job! Very natural and didn't "melt" during a super hot day.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-27 15:49

that's great!!! thanks for the recommendation.  Did you gals cry and mess up the makeup? heheh
作者: tsumorichisato    時間: 2009-5-27 16:03

I used Jessica. She had done a 101% great job on my hair. Makeup overall is okay, but you have to tell her exactly what u like. I didn't go with Mindy, she did not do well on the trial. Long story short, she doesn't really listen to me and I don't see she was making me more pretty than usual.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-27 20:40

Usually how long does it take to do makeup and hair on 1 Bride and 3 Bridesmaids? Is 2 hours enough?  Is it better to hire 2 person to do makeup if I have 3-4 ppl ?

tsumorichisato, does Jessica has portfolio online? thanks!
作者: Arlui    時間: 2009-5-28 09:15

1 bride + 3 bridesmaid = 3 hours at least girl...also depends if the make-up artist has an assisstant that she can bring do to your bridesmaid.
for my wedding it was me, 2 bridesmaid and my mom - my makeup artist came with an assitant, started around 6:30 with the 2 bridesmaid and finished me and my mom around 10am...haha..good luck.
作者: tsumorichisato    時間: 2009-5-28 09:23

Jusumsuen,
2 hours..you can barely make it and for sure you need assistant to do the bridesmaids makeup. It took me like 1 hr and half to finish mine. The morning makeup takes the longest.

I don't know if Jessica had online portfolio or not, most of time MUA is more like 人夾人緣. I don't mind to share my pics from both Mindy and Jessica, just PM me if you are interested.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-28 10:04

oh wow....I never realize it would take so long! Now I know!!! Thanks so much!
did any of you gals cry during the ceremony? did you mess up the eye makeup?  How did you deal with it?
作者: icing    時間: 2009-5-28 10:16

I've makeup with Jessica (sis's wedding), Eva (my wedding) and Mindy (MOH)

Jesscia can probably finish faster. Usually Jessica will do the full makeup for the bride and her assistant will do the most parts for others and Jessica will do the final touch up.

Mindy didn't do a good job on my makeup as MOH, probably too rush. She did 4 ppl makeup that day starting at 5am on her OWN. I was the last one, she can barely finish my makeup around 8:15am.

Eva takes longer than Jessica but she does great job too. She brought an assistant on my wedding day too, both morning and night session. I had her re-do my hair and makeup before the church ceremony coz it's summer, the makeup from morning had not melted but just wanted a better look for the ceremony. She changed my makeup and hair at night every time I changed my dresses as well.

Jessica's assistant IMO is ma ma dei ,  I don't know if she still works for her now. She did my mom's makeup and hair and my mom didn't really like it. She has to cover fake lashes with bold eyeliner which I also hate the most when MUA did it.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-28 10:31

so, Eva stayed for the entire day for your wedding? or she left and came back at night time?

jusumsuen 發表於 2009-5-28 10:31 AM

Eva usually come and go at diff time during the day. She could "follow you" if you are planning to have makeup/hair changes thro out your day. And she will show up before wedding banquet. But please be aware that the more times you have the change of "look", the heavier makeup will be at the end of the day. Her makeup is a bit "heavy hand" to my taste. Oh btw she and her assistant expect 2 seats (with food) at the dinner banquet if you want them to be there.
作者: icing    時間: 2009-5-28 10:37

She came to my house first (5:30pm), did mine, my MOH and my mom, then went to my in-laws house to do my huddy's mom makeup. Then she met me at church at 1pm (ceremony starts at 2pm) to change my makeup and hairdo, touch up for MOH, both moms. Then she went to the restaurant at 5pm to do my godmom's makeup and stayed for the rest of the night.

I had hired Eva's husband to do my hubby's hair too. So he did my hubby's mom hair as well, so when Eva went to my in law's house, she just did the makeup for my hubby's mom.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-28 11:07

wow, so she came to change the makeup and hairdo 3 times! Was it expensive?
作者: icing    時間: 2009-5-28 11:23

I know her through Charlies studio.  You can arrage with her directly, less expensive, full day should be around $7XX
作者: 布小熊    時間: 2009-5-28 12:40

So around $7XX just for u and BM right? Cos she charge extra for every single person in addition to the 2.... And she charged for fake eye lashes that we didn't ask her to put on....
(btw I wasn't the bride)
作者: icing    時間: 2009-5-28 12:56

Coz I arrange it through Charlies Studio, so she didn't charged extra for eye lashes.
But I think for her own package, $7xx for bride and MOH.

I've her for makeup for other osscations, she charges extra for eye lashes, just like Jessica charges extra for 安平

ic ic diff ppl like diff style so guess all of us has their own choice of MUA.
o btw, I think my friend had at least 5+ change of hair/makeup that day.
作者: jusumsuen    時間: 2009-5-29 01:48

5+ change of hair and makeup! wow That's a lot!  I guess mine would be easy cuz I probably need one look for the whole day only...hehehe
作者: cremedelacreme    時間: 2009-6-15 21:51

has any people used Daisy from Lisange before?  Do u know if she do a great job in bridal make up?
作者: 小叻    時間: 2009-8-5 22:20

Mindy did my makeup too! Nice job! Very natural and didn't "melt" during a super hot day.

i have seen works from Jessica, Sara & Mindy

Sara tends to overbook, she might change the scheduled time even you have booked her early, because she is working for many many studios and has her own clients too.
Jessica is better than Sara in terms of service, for the work Jessica & Sara is very similar because they are both from Charlies.
Mindy is good, but I have seen a few brides using her, they have 80% similar hair and makeup. However that means she is CONSISTENT.

Makeup and and hair is subjective, you'll need a trial.

Hope that helps!

i'll use mindy for my wedding
作者: cremedelacreme    時間: 2009-9-5 03:06

I am using Mindy too for my wedding day.
作者: lizzie    時間: 2009-9-5 18:15

I had mindy too and she did a very good job.  She did an excellent job on my maid of honour too.   She is also quite nice, not the calculative type.
作者: chunsh    時間: 2009-9-7 22:11

I would like to get some choices so that I can compare. Mindy of course is one of my choices, but that would be great if someone can give me more options besides Sara and Charlie. thanks so much
