Beauty by Stacey Wedding Makeup and Hair Artist

I have been a makeup artist in and around Southern California since 2004, but my work has taken me all over the state, country and even abroad. Over the years, I have been lucky enough to work on a number of high end projects in the fashion, beauty, bridal, commercial, and editorial sectors. My inspiration is to enhance beauty naturally. I believe that beauty first comes from within and it’s my job to complete the picture by making my client feel beautiful on the outside. I’d love to be apart of your special day. I’d love to hear from you!

I worked with Stacey's agency starting back in 2019 when I was looking for May 2020 MUA's. She was referred by my photographer. Stacey set me up with Tiffany which was a perfect match! They were helpful and supportive during two wedding postpon...
ements. By the time my final wedding day rolled around in Nov 2021 we had to redo our bridal trial and I'm so happy we touched base after two years of waiting! Tiffany is very talented and you can tell she's passionate about her brides. She was a doll to have getting ready in the bridal suite. Both the mothers of bride/groom (especially MOB who was hesitant to get her make up done) looked amazing. My bridesmaids looked wonderful and glowing. My bridal make up was so stunning and I'm glad I spoke up and asked for a bit more "drama" which photographed really well! Thank you Stacey for the organization and THANK YOU TIFFANY as my artist.

Stacey and her entire team are the sweetest people!! I had the pleasure to work with her twice as a COVID bride and I could not have LOVED her more! Her spirit, her joy and her work are incredible. She was such a joy to have around on a special...
day like a wedding. She was so attentive prior to the day, answered all my questions and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. When I had to re-schedule my larger celebration a year later she was personally booked with another wedding but I got to work with 3 amazing members of her team and couldn’t have been happier. Madison Brinkerhoff, Ashley Barrett and Megan Lopez were wonderful. My whole bridal party kept raving about how sweet each of them was and I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to do hair/makeup for the wedding. I couldn’t recommend Stacey and her team anymore!!! Choosing her was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day for sure!!

tire morning getting ready ran so smoothly. Stacey put together a schedule which was so helpful and we ended up all being ready ahead of schedule! We postponed our wedding a year due to covid and working with Stacey on finding a new date and adjusting our plans was so easy. We ended up doing two bridal trials after I decided to change directions on some make-up choices and Stacey went out of her way to fit me into her schedule. I am so happy with how my bridal hair and make-up turned out. My make-up lasted so well through a really hot day outside and my hair still had its curl at the end of the night! I received so many compliments from guests and the bridal party on how much they loved the work the Beauty By Stacey team did. Thank you Stacey, Kheana, Elisa and Cindy ♥️

I LOVE Stacey — not only did she talk to me about Harry Potter and cats, but she also made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. Double-win. I had never had my hair or my make-up professionally done in the past, so I had no idea what the experie...
nce would be. I’m sure I was a bundle of nerves when Stacey showed up for my trial (which I highly recommend doing!), but there was honestly nothing that I should have worried about. Stacey is an expert at highlighting your natural beauty; I never felt like any part of me was being hidden under heavy makeup. I was authentically me at my wedding, and that was so wonderful. Stacey also worked with me to make sure I was pleased with my makeup and hair and was happy to make any small tweaks to my look. On the day of the wedding, Stacey and her team arrived early and worked efficiently to make sure myself and my bridal party were done on-time for pictures before the ceremony. We had such a fun time with Stacey and her team, listening to music and chatting. It definitely helped me settle down before seeing my husband for the first time! As an extra bonus, my hair and make-up lasted throughout the warm June day and through all the dancing I did at the reception! I am so grateful to Stacey for helping me feel confident and beautiful on this important day.

Stacey and her team did such a beautiful job with hair and makeup for myself and my wedding party. I love the "natural skin" finish she espouses. I felt radiant but still like myself on my wedding day. It was important to me to find someone who...
could handle a large group (pre-covid) across a variety of ages/skin tones and Stacey and team really delivered - everyone looked phenomenal! I was also impressed with how fast, efficient, and organized they were. We even finished up ahead of schedule - NOT an easy feat with a large group! The cherry on top is that Stacey is such a warm, friendly person and a pleasure to be around. She even helped me with some finishing touches during pictures and when I changed for my reception. Highly recommend her!

A few last things of note: she was there exactly on time, was easy to pay and they did touch ups at the end of the (marathon) getting ready session so everybody left for the venue looking perfect. She's your girl in the San Diego area for any hair and makeup needs.

When we found Stacey, it was truly meant to be. My expectations were high, but she blew all expectations out of the water! She was super professional, super personable, wonderful at what she does, and just a great human being. She was always quick to respond and really listened to our needs to make sure that everything was perfect. There was a total of 9 girls (including two brides!) and Stacey, Tiana, Gaby, Bianca, and Kate helped us get ready with time to spare keeping the mood fun, relaxed, and just made our experience really wonderful that I will treasure for years to come. They never made us feel any different for being a same-sex couple, and just treated us like brides and made us feel like queens (or Disney princesses!).

My hair is just kind of a problem. I was very happy with it day-of! However, I could have used a little more inspiration or suggestion. But, hair was not my priority at all and it worked out great.

I cannot say enough great things about Stacey! As a bride, there will naturally be many stressful moments, so that's why it was important for me to work with a beauty expert who not only had incredible make-up & hair skills (which she's a true ...
pro) but to also have someone by my side who just made me feel happy! My husband and I were married over Columbus Day weekend, and throughout all 3 of the wedding events, she not only made me feel beautiful on the outside, but had a way of keeping things zen throughout the entire time. She is so easy to get along with and she truly knows how to bring out your best features while making sure you look like you on your big day! Stacey was with me throughout my entire wedding day - she was the first person I saw and she stayed with me throughout all of my photos, all the way to our evening reception. And one tip for all the brides out there, surround yourself with people that make you feel good. That is exactly what Stacey did for me. Throughout all the touch-ups, 2 different hair styles, and even going above and beyond to ensure that my dress was in place for all the photos, she is a gem. Working with Stacey for your big day will be the best decision you make. Stacey, thank you and your team for making me and my family feel so comfortable and beautiful! I'll never forget us chilling to our favorite tunes the morning of my wedding day. Thank you for being simply wonderful!

So happy I went with Stacey! She was very organized, checking in with me every so often and keeping in great touch with my coordinator. She gave me a schedule of when each person would get their makeup done, and she really stuck to it. She was ...
on time too! For both my engagement shoot and my wedding I ended up with exactly the makeup I wanted, which is doubly amazing because I basically told her "I dont really wear makeup or know anything about makeup, please make me look nice without making me look like im wearing a bunch of makeup?" I felt so comfortable in what she gave me - I knew I would look awesome in pictures but I still felt like myself. My two bridesmaids, who are similar to me when it comes to makeup, both mentioned the same. Stacey was also so patient and kind with my mother and grandmother-in-law, who are Spanish speakers. She was also very patient when my numbers for makeup kept changing, and even sent me some additional photos when my Mom was going back and forth about wanting her makeup done. She ended up not doing it, but after seeing me she told me she wished she had had Stacey do her makeup, she loved how I looked formal but not overly "done up". (You can tell we're real fashionistas over here....) Long story short, I absolutely recommend Stacey!

I knew I wanted a natural look and Stacey really delivered - i felt beautiful and got a million compliments.

This took a lot of stress off of me since I knew the makeup would look great and would last through the day. Stacey was also absolutely wonderful with my mom who also wanted a really natural look (she never wears make-up). She took the time to explain everything and my mom was SO pleased with how her makeup turned out. If you're looking for a hair and make-up artist for your wedding day, you won't go wrong by hiring Stacey! She will create any look you want and will make you look and feel absolutely beautiful!

Stacey is THE BEST!!! Not only is the amazing at what she does, but she’s all around the sweetest person to work with. Let me start by saying that I was REALLY afraid to hire a wedding makeup artist…I kept seeing a lot of over-the-top glam from...
other MUAs, and I dreaded looking too overdone and not like myself. It was really important to me to hire someone who understood the sun-kissed dewy natural look that I wanted for myself and my bridesmaids…that’s where Stacey comes in! Stacey and her team really delivered exactly what I was looking for and made me feel beautiful!!! We did a trial session a couple months before the wedding (highly recommend this no matter who you end up working with!) where we workshopped my wedding day beauty together, and she took detailed notes of all my feedback. She even checked in on me several hours later to ask how well the makeup was lasting! By the time my wedding day came around, she knew exactly what I wanted and totally nailed it! Her team also executed my bridesmaids’ looks perfectly while keeping each of their individual beauty needs in mind. Everyone was so impressed with their hair and makeup, and felt beautiful and confident all day long! Stacey and her team are professional but really FUN, they were right on time and stuck to schedule, played the best music, and made everyone feel super comfortable in the chair! What’s more, I didn’t realize how important it ended up being to have a glam squad with such a calming presence. As many brides know, getting ready the day of your wedding is generally very chaotic, and it feels like you’re being pulled in a million different directions on top of being overwhelmed about the day you’ve imagined for so long. Stacey and her team have wonderful energy and really helped center me in the hours leading up to my ceremony. Stacey is just a lovely, lovely person, and I hope I have the chance to work with her again soon! Stop scrolling and hire her before she books up!

t Stacey came all the way to the middle of nowhere to do my makeup. I asked if she would be able to do my mom and mother in laws makeup as well. They both kept saying how much they loved their makeup and conservations. She has this calming energy about her. It was what I needed on that day as well. As a fellow makeup artist and hairstylist I am very picky about who I would trust to do my makeup and there is nobody better than Stacey. I gave her one picture of a color palette I liked and she killed it. I looked in the mirror when I was done and I was almost in tears! Everyone complimented my makeup that day. Even when I show people photos they also say how great my makeup looks. I even slept in it that night( ended up being too tired to remove) and it still looked the same the day after! I’d don’t know what her magic powers are but if you are getting married and need a makeup artist, Stacey is the one. She is crazy talented and one of the most genuine, kind hearted people I have ever met. -Courtney Mooney

I definitely recommend doing a HMUA trial though, just so that you can share your wishes, exchange ideas and calm your mind. She is there to make you feel your absolute best in your own skin, not to put on a mask, and she did it wonderfully. Aside from that, Stacey acts with such a high degree of professionalism, but also always with heart and a smile on her face, making it a pleasure to work with her.

The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because we were initially supposed to have Stacey herself and then a month or so after booking, we were told there was a scheduling mix-up. In the end, she still made sure we were set with a team of her artists, and it all worked out.

She was very reassuring and everything went so smoothly the day of the wedding. Stacey and Gabby did an amazing job on everyone in my bridal party.

That made the decision of having hair up easier. I showed Stacey a slightly different style from what she had done at the trial and she executed it even better than the photo. I had a really lacy elegant gown and she did a hairdo that many people commented looked like a British Royal look (it really complemented the dress). She added in some flowers in just the right spots to further the hairdo. My makeup lasted throughout the day and evening even while we were running around taking photos in the rain!

You ruined my wedding day. Absolutely devastating... It saddens me to have to write this review but I feel is important other brides to be know my experience with Stacey I'm still in shock and so disappointed at how things turned out. My hair...
and makeup was nothing like the inspo pics I shared, and all that was promised and discussed prior to my big day, ignored. No care for timeline to ensure there was plenty of time to get the bride’s hair and make up done properly. No make-up touch ups, nothing...I didn't even get a touch up kit so I could touch it up myself prior photos which is standard when it comes to weddings - Stacey left a makeup brush with lip-gloss wrapped in tissue paper which by the time we got back to the villa to get ready for photos had dried up! My hair and makeup styles were simple (see pic attached). makeup was a natural bronzed look and hair a sleek side part with loose curls. The end result? An absolute disaster, I can't even bring myself to look at the pictures not to mentioned the little wave I had in my hair dropped before I walked down the aisle looking frizzy and dull - just awful. Stacey did very little to fix the issue, she tried to convince me to walk down the aisle with a hairstyle that was unacceptable so she could be done with the job. Our videographer had to jump in and help as she knew I couldn't walk down the aisle looking like that. After trying to fix the initial bad job for over 30min we had to wash my hair and start over. Stacey did a rushed, bad dry-off job making it worse. We ran out of time and as I was panicking trying to get dressed and make the terrible hair and makeup work, everyone in the room jumped in to help but Stacey, the person responsible, quietly left without saying a word to me, not even an apology or an attempt to make it right. She had been paid so who cares, right?! Her lack of care and problem solving caused major issues and completely ruined my day. I was late for the ceremony which impacted first look pictures with my uncle, getting ready pics with my bridesmaids and my mum, I missed out on all those moments and don't have any pictures of it! I was so upset and stressed out I couldn't enjoy the walking down the aisle and looking at my husband moments as all I could think about was the messy makeup and frizzy hair. It also impacted our cocktail hour and time for couple photos which was cut in half! These are moments you can't do over, they are lifetime moments forever tainted! I know it means nothing to Stacey s she was paid upfront but it meant the world to me. I was so stressed I don't remember walking down the aisle and only noticed I had my dress belt in the wrong way halfway through the pictures. The whole experience was devastating and I don't think she has any idea how much it affected me. She ruined my wedding day.

Hi Michelle, It saddens me to read your review and hear how you feel. I know weddings can be stressful, especially on the day itself. I am also disappointed knowing your day didn't turn out the way you would liked for it to. I felt I did my j...
ob wholeheartedly as I do with all of my weddings. I do respect your right to state your opinion. But any bride who has worked with me knows my work ethic, and how dedicated I am to them. My record will stand on its own merit. Luckily, there are two perspectives to every scenario. Firstly, I really wish you hadn’t declined the bridal trial before your wedding; which I highly recommend to all of my brides, in which 99% of my brides do book. This would have given me a better idea of exactly what you wanted, make notes, adjustments, and, most importantly, know your hair texture/behavior and tailor it to your desired hairstyle. I have many out of town brides, such as yourself, and they understand the importance of this trial. Knowing the texture of their hair, and later being able to report back to me on how well their curls held, for example, enables me to adjust on their wedding day. Unfortunately touch-up kits are not standard. But I would have been more than happy to provide you with one, if requested ahead of time. I do also provide a bridal touch up service, where I can stay behind till after first look or ceremony, for example, to better service my brides. I am a little confused when you said that you weren't happy with how your makeup turned out. On the day itself, after making a few adjustments, you were overjoyed when you looked in the mirror. You even said I was a “LEGEND!”. When I am at my weddings, I am always very methodical about checking time to correspond with my timeline, which I send at least a few weeks before the wedding day itself. I always book an adequate amount of time per service. On the day itself I arrived to The Parker Palm Springs early. I checked into the front desk (as I wasn’t allowed to go directly to the room) and the receptionist told me, after speaking with someone from your room on the phone, that someone would be coming for me. I waited in the lobby for over 15 mins until one of your bridesmaids met me to walk me back to your villa. Per the timeline that I sent out, I always add in extra time for arrival and set up, before the first client is in my chair. I was already behind schedule from waiting, and therefore started later than my scheduled timeline. Unfortunately even more time was lost while I waited around for over 20 mins, while you ran around the room appearing flustered and stressed, at which time we should have already started your scheduled makeup. Because of these delays, we were forced to go over the allotted time, at which point I stayed an extra two hours to rework your hair. Due to the additional time lost while you were deliberating whether to wash out your hair, I asked the hair trained videographer to assist and speed things along. It saddens me that you feel that I don't care, as my number one priority is my bride's happiness. I am very disappointed that you were unhappy with my services. And for that I truly am sincerely sorry.

She is one of the most professional vendors I have worked with in SD. She is responsive, fair, well-priced, kind, humble, easy-going and most importantly... excellent in her craft. I asked Stacey for a sun-kissed, California girl look and she made all my bridesmaids and me look like we just stepped off the beach. What makes Stacey unlike most make-up artists (...and so, so special) is that she has the ability to create any look you wish. Most artists have one or two makeup looks they have mastered and stick to them (hence so many pictures of brides look the same). Stacey actually listens, takes notes, photos and guides you with her knowledge on how to get the look you want. She is also so funny and cool, you literally want to add her to your bridal party. Thank you Stacey for being so awesome.

On the day of my wedding, Tiana and another makeup artist (sorry forgot her name) assisted my bridal party and I with our makeup and hair. They all had different ideas on how they wanted their hair and makeup done and these ladies were able to accommodate them without a problem. My bridal party loved their hair and makeup and they all looked absolutely stunning. Tiana brought so much laughter to the day and completely calmed me. She just let me enjoy the process and pampered me on my wedding day. Her work is unbelievable and flawless! I had some last minute changes and she had no problem adjusting my original plan. I felt beautiful and gorgeous on the day of my wedding. I know it’s all because of her, she truly is an artist! I received many compliments on my hair and makeup during the wedding and after when people viewed photos. I could not have been happier with my outcome. I could go on and on about how wonderful these ladies were and how much I appreciated them. Having them being part of my wedding was one of the best decisions I made. I completely recommend Stacey, Tiana, and her team!!

I felt anxious in those "getting ready" photos. Also, since my hair didn't heat as long, the style fell pretty quickly at the reception. They forgot to put mascara to blend the false lashes so they look natural, even though it was done in the trial. They also forgot to put lipstick on my mom, so we had to do rushed fixes.

a couple ideas for hair and makeup into what I wanted exactly. She is very patient, talented, professional, and so sweet! For the day of the wedding, Stacey and her assistant Rachelle, were a rockstar team. They made myself, my daughter (maid of honor), and my mom look and feel amazing. I would highly recommend Stacey for your special day!

Stacey was wonderful! She came to my hotel room to do my wedding make up and bridal party hair. Her web site is informative and easy to use. I liked that I originally got a lot of info just from looking at her site. She always called and e-mail...
ed me back quickly and it was easy to secure the date with her my making a PayPal payment. She was so nice and super fun to have with me and my girls getting ready for my big day! We all had a great time chatting with Stacey and she did an absolutely fabulous job on my Bridal make up and styling my bridesmaids hair. We were all so happy with the results and she was reasonably priced. I found many hair/make up artists charged to travel to you on your wedding day but Stacey was not. I got the air brush make up and I REALLY liked it. it was not greasy (my face is) and it help up great all night even after the frosting facial I got at my cake cutting :) I followed Stacey's advise and kept the make up look clean and classic and I am so happy with how all my pics look! I highly recommend Beauty by Stacey, she is professional, talented and fun!"

Stacey is truly a gifted makeup artist! Now, in the interest of full disclosure, Stacey is my cousin. Our relationship does not change the fact that she has a real gift for creating beautiful makeup and is a true artist. Throughout my planning ...
process, Stacey was so willing to help me figure out what my makeup should look like. She let me bounce ideas off her, she gave me honest feedback based on her experience and also sent me many ideas/examples to look at. She was also willing to do a couple of trials with me, and I greatly appreciate her willingness to make time for me despite my indecisiveness! Come the wedding day, she was super prompt and professional. She has a bright spirit which makes everyone around her happy and calm. When I finally looked in the hand mirror to see what she had created, I almost started crying. My makeup was PERFECT, and it lasted the entire day without needing a touch up. That’s what I call GREAT makeup!

I called Stacey looking for makeup and hair for my wedding in October, I was looking for someone who could do dramatic eye makeup and use the products that I already use. She wasn't available but one of her other artists was, Courtney Ullrich....
Courtney was so professional and so sweet. She came from San Diego county to Orange County on a Friday evening to do a trail run at my house. She used all the products I love (MAC, Bobbi Brown, Nars) and she was able to do my makeup the exact way I love it, dramatic and wedding appropriate. She contoured my nose and our photos turned out so amazing. I would definitely recommend Beauty by Stacey and above that Courtney without a doubt. On the day of the wedding Courtney brought another artist to assist her, they showed up early (8:00am!) and were helpful did 5 people's hair and makeup and they even stayed until my ceremony was over to touch up my makeup. They were amazing! Thank you so much!

I originally met Stacey at a vendor fair at my wedding venue, where she was having a raffle for free day of bridal makeup. So naturally I entered myself in the raffle, and when I got the email 2 days later saying I won the raffle, that day I di...
dn't realize exactly how lucky I was to have Stacey as my wedding makeup artist, but I do now! Stacey has been absolutely amazing, from doing my makeup for engagement photos, to coming and doing a special bridal trial, because as most brides do I had a mini freak out and needed some reassurance, and the day of the wedding my makeup along with my bridesmaids makeup was flawless! Among the many stresses a bride goes through the day of her wedding, my wedding makeup was not one of them because I knew I was in good hands with Stacey! Stacey is so much fun to work with and an absolute professional! She is incredibly patient, perpetually happy, and incredibly TALENTED! I would definitely recommend booking Stacey to do you makeup for any special occasion!

I want to first off tell you that I signed up just so that I can spread the word about the AMAZING job Stacey did for me on my wedding day. I am not one for wearing makeup so I was very hesitant about how I would look and feel. Needless to say,...
with Stacey's skills my makeup was flawless, natural and more importantly beautiful. Her techniques and ability really helped accentuate my facial features, my makeup didn't feel heavy and it lasted from sunrise to well into the night. If you want everyone to comment on how gorgeous and beautiful you look I would highly recommend booking Stacey.
