Cristal was the most talented and most lovely makeup artist I could ever have asked for on my big day!! She really listened to me when I expressed the look I was going for, got excited about it, and made it even better than I could have imagined. Had a trial with someone before her, but Stephani blew the other artist out of the water. She is so incredibly talented, and in addition such a lovely, kind and fun, down-to-earth person to chat with. She did a great job on all my bridesmaids, was very professional. So happy to have had you there Christal!! ❤️ Thank you.
Cristal did a great job on my makeup for my elopement in Big Sur! She was friendly, punctual and customized the look based on what I wanted - somewhere between natural and glam. My makeup stayed in place all day and my skin never got shiny. Cristal also did a great job on falsh lashes - they didn't irritate me at all. I also appreciated that she took covid safety seriously.

I started by working for a popular cosmetic brand in retail. It was during that time when I learned that an experience is always more important than a product. This inspired me to take my makeup artistry to the next level by representing myself. Luxury Makeup by Cristal was established.
The word "luxury" to me means personal, customized, high focus on detail delivered with professional skills and my full presence. I am proud to say my heart was fully involved in the last ten years doing makeup and will continue to give my utmost concentration to deliver the results you want on your wedding day
