Flawless Faces

desmaids and mother looked insanely beautiful like I couldn't even believe it. I mean they are gorgeous girls to start with but Carina did such a great job and the makeup photographed so well! I LOVED my makeup, it was exactly what I wanted and Carina listened to what I voiced I wanted. It was a hot day and all of our makeup held up all day long! We got so many compliments on our makeup. She was great with all different ages as well as ethnicities. She did 8 of us total that day and kept right on schedule. She made my wedding day perfect and was so relaxed throughout the entire process.

d into the next day without moving. They were super sweet and came prepared. I highly recommend them for anyone who wants to be beautiful!

-up. I was happy with my hair, I thought it looked good, but did not ultimately get the style I was going for. I felt like the hair stylists were not as current on the styles or skilled in getting the look I wanted. I ended up settling after the 2nd stylist, but like I said - I love my pictures and I felt like I looked great. I would recommend flawless faces for makeup - she is fantastic!

ith your hair & makeup team before the big day. Having that trial helped me really buckle down what it was that I exactly wanted and helped develop that relationship with my stylists. Susie did hair and Sara did makeup for myself and all my bridesmaids and the moms. They did an absolutely fantastic job and all of us ladies kept saying how beautiful we felt. The moms and girls kept talking about how lovely they all felt :). I had the girls choose the hairstyle they wanted, so Susie had quite a task with accommodating all these different hairstyles, which she did a great job with. My wedding hair was even more stunning than I could have imagined! Sara brought such a calm, gentle energy to the craziness of a wedding morning and made each girl feel gorgeous. My mom and mother-in-law were both a little nervous about getting their makeup done, mainly because they were worried about wrinkles etc. Sara made them feel at ease and used the airbrush foundation on them, myself, and some of the bridesmaids. A definite must! The airbrush gives you that "flawless face" and your makeup lasts all day! Susie and Sara were early to their scheduled start times and got all 8 of us done in a super efficient timely manner! They were so wonderful to all of us and made me feel completely at ease. Thank you to Carina for accommodating some last minute additions to hair and for organizing all the scheduling! Thank you Flawless Faces! xoxo, Samantha

fee. Which would be fine if I knew about it but fine whatever. But then a week later after that there was a assistant fee which isn't a lot but it's still the fact this is all in the month of my wedding and I thought we already had it figured out and getting a fourth contract was upsetting (The first one was another girls contract). The contract needs to be filled out first with the fees .. That's why there is a trial to get informed about where it is (traveling fee) and the prices on everything (assistant fee) but I was not. So I was upset about that but told her the day of and she said don't worry about the assistant fee. So that was nice but I wish it was all presented to me on the day of the trial especially because I told her I picked her because it was only 215 but she didn't say oh the traveling feel and the assistant fee in there. But I just want to inform people to make sure about the fees but I would go with them again because the makeup was perfect. I absolutely loved Shanon she was very professional and did an amazing job. Shanon knew exactly how to talk to a stressed out bride!

more than I wanted for my wedding day look. My makeup and hair stylist was Ally, and she was hands-down the best!!!! I only booked because I trusted her right away at the trial that she'd style my hair and makeup to be whatever I really wanted. The morning of wedding. She was on time and set up quickly. She did a great job on all of my bridesmaids makeup too. I was beyond happy with how great my makeup looked on my fair skin and my hair was curled perfectly. I'd book flawless faces if you could work with Ally.

to our liking, different for each girl, but all looking like one wedding party. We all looked beyond gorgeous for our wedding photos! Michelle did hair for the ladies, some in up-do's some in loose waves, all stunning. Carina is the owner of FF and she has such a warm heart. You can tell beauty is her life, she really loves what she does and she makes you feel more beautiful than you could have pictured. So responsive and helpful, the studio is adorable, Flawless Faces can't be beat!

but all of our makeup stayed truly flawless all night. Cara did a great job in making sure that we all looked natural yet so beautiful by highlighting our individual features. They are actually very affordable too and they came to our hotel in Dana Point to do everyone's makeup. I would highly recommend using Flawless Faces!!

finish on my special day. The girls all looked fabulous too! Shanon and Stephanie were so fun, and easy to work with. I cannot thank them, or Flawless Faces enough for the fantastic job they did beautifying everyone for on my wedding day! Sincerely, Ashley Boyle

things on our wedding day. I would dream about it leading up to our big day and I get emotional just thinking about it all. Wanting your makeup to last through the day, the tears and the many hugs and kisses. Needing your hair to stay just the way it was when you left your room. These ladies didn’t disappoint not one bit and I couldn’t thank them enough. My makeup and hair looked amazing from the beginning of the day until the end and would recommend them to everyone!! Not only did my hair and head piece stay in place but my makeup looked as good throughout the day as the moment it was put on. Not to mention giving me touch up lip stick and gloss to giving me something to calm my nerves as the moments came closer to me leaving for our beautiful Wayfarers Chapel. I love these ladies and will forever remember them for making me so beautiful on one of the most important days of my life.

g day and it's all thanks to Carina and Sarah. They did such an amazing job making my girls and I flawless for my big day. My hair and makeup still looked amazing at the end of the night. I highly recommend flawless faces!

e decided to do the airbrush and it was totally worth the extra $10! every girl including myself felt amazing! and the makeup lasted all night... I literally did not touch anything up once...just lipstick. Ashley did our hair, and she is just as AMAZING. I love that she did a different style for every girl, but she had braids in each style. Once again... no one had to touch up their hair all night!! everything about this company is amazing, great customer service, wonderful and experienced employees and such a cute studio. I recommend them with confidence to any bride!!!

l how Karina just kind of knew how you would like your make up done. She was great at letting you know that it's going to feel like you may have a lot of make up on, but it's not going to look like it and that was 100% true!!! I won't ever use anyone else again for any professional make up I need done for any photo op.! And neither will my friends, I have already referred Karina to at least 5 other friends and they have had nothing but amazing things to say.

mothers makeup first and I can honestly say that I have never seen my mom look more gorgeous in my life! My mom couldn't stop taking selfies, that's how happy she was with how she looked. Next was my grandmother, Shannon was so patient and understanding with what my grandma wanted and was comfortable with and again, I have never seen her look more stunning. There were a couple of mishaps while getting ready such as my mom forgetting my veil and having to rush off to get it in another city from where we were! My nerves were SHOT to say the least but Shannon was so comforting with me. She made sure I had water and something to eat so I wouldn't pass out with the stress and nerves combined. We were running an hour late because of the veil issue however Shannon never rushed my makeup application and I never felt any tension from her. She worked with my photographer and videographers without any issues and was so professional and sweet with them. When I finally caught a glimpse of myself I was blown away. She made me look like a much better glammed version of myself!! I felt STUNNING and honestly flawless. The compliments were and still are endless about how my makeup looked. I felt like a melt worthy princess because of her. The experience with Shannon was more than I could ever have expected and I am thankful for her for more than just her amazing makeup application, she is a wonderful person!!!! Thank you SO much!! Heather Ross (formerly Ingle)

ke up (and the bridesmaids) done - especially after spending so much on photography. Everyone told me they have never seen me look so beautiful and I am so in love with my pictures and how we look in them! A huge thank you to Carina and the Flawless Faces team for being a part of my big day.

and I did not feel like I had anything caked on. They did an excellent job not only on me, but my bridal party, mom and mother-in-law as well, making each of them look their absolute best self. Best part is everyone's makeup stayed absolutely perfect throughout the entire evening (and some had it done at 9am!) Would absolutely use them again.

ick which was so great for getting 7people done in a timely manner. She was very sweet and great to work with. Highly recommend this company!!!!

ts listened to what I wanted, rather than some other makeup professionals I had gone to for trial sessions. Since my wedding, I have returned to Carina for hair and makeup for other special events. I always feel my best after visiting Flawless Faces. I also had a private makeup lesson last summer. I receive daily compliments on my makeup, thanks to the techniques I learned from Carina! Amazing!

otos as a trial run and she did such an amazing job and our photos turned out perfect. I knew she was the one for the wedding and the bridesmaids for make-up. She did an amazing job on everyone's make-up for my wedding. My make-up was flawless and photographed so well and all the bridesmaids looked gorgeous and she tied in our colors into their make-up to make it look so gorgeous but not crazy colored make-up. Love Carina and her girls and will definitely use them for any occasion I need my make-up done and recommend them to everyone!!! Thanks Carina!

d early and literally just stood there with her makeup luggage in hand waiting to be paid which was rude since no one else was done and I had to write out a check while getting my hair done in the chair. It was also not told to us that the girls all get paid separately, not through the company. The communication of the owner is lacking.

ll throughout the planning process. I highly recommend doing a trial run before the big day. You'll get a chance to meet your artist and communicate what you want. Shannon and Ashley were so friendly and understood what I wanted. I would highly recommend them.

started to get crunched for time I started to get a little worried). Everyone in the bridal party looked incredible and I loved the way by hair and make-up looked. They listed to what I wanted and made me feel so special. I would highly recommend Flawless Faces (especially Jo, Sarah and Leilani). They did an amazing job!

my bridesmaid, and each bridesmaid looked stunning!! It really meant a lot to me and I think the girls looked flawless! I really appreciated your expertise and professionalism to get the girls ready in time. If you need me to write a review or recommendation, I am more than happy to. The girls looked completely flawless and received so many compliments on how stunning they looked. All thanks to you and your team!!! Thank you for being such a integral part of my day! I wish your team continued success and I look forward to working with you in the near future! Thanks, Carina !!! Your team is kind, loving, gentle, and so easy to work with. The entire group became part of my family .. and I still go back once in awhile to get my hair and makeup done by these girls....

professional. I always highly recommend the Flawless Faces team to my friends and family and many have become repeat customers. You won't be disappointed!

Fiji Islands. Carina worked all 5 days of the wedding getting us ready for each function and camera ready. There are very few make up artists that put in the extra attention and hard work that Carina did. Long after she completed my makeup for my wedding she was still following me around with her palette of makeup touching me up so I looked perfect all day and night long. I cannot thank her enough for her expertise and making me look and feel beautiful! Since my wedding I have referred her to every bride I meet and continue to use her services! She is the absolute best!

she helped me figure out the timing and was very thorough in communicating all contracts, plans, and information - I really felt like everything was taken care of, which is really all a bride can hope for! She set me up to have Heather do our makeup and Susie do my hair. Both were on time and ready and so awesome to work with - even at an early 6am appointment time! Our makeup was truly flawless, really everything I hoped for!! My hair was perfect - I was set on having a classic high bun and Susie made it even better than I could have hoped for. Both makeup & hair lasted ALL day, from 6am, till the night was over, around 10pm! Really the best in business, I will definitely be recommending Flawless Faces to everyone and will be using them for any future hair/makeup needs I may have!!

y where no one can be late! it was a SUPER hot day 106 degrees! we were all worried we would melt but we were put at ease by our stylests who made us into picture perfect dolls! everyone including my bridal party loved both hair and makeup im still getting compliments today!

lways got back to me within a day or two. After confirming the number of girls needing her service and the time we would need to be done by, Carina provided me with a timeline outlining how much time it would take for each girl. According to her timeline, we would begin at 7:20 and be finished by noon. Based on this timeline, I scheduled my photographer and videographer to arrive around 11:00am so they could capture my makeup being done. On the morning of the wedding, Carina arrived at 6:45am – no one was awake yet as we weren’t expecting her for another 35 minutes. My bridesmaid let her in and told her that no one was ready yet but Carina was adamant about starting right away because she had a schedule to stick to. It was pointed out to her that she was quite early and she seemed put out by having to wait and gave the girls attitude. We began makeup on time at 7:20. Even after starting on time and taking a 15 minute break to eat, Carina was finished with all 7 girls by 10:45am and left by 11am causing me to have no video or photos of my makeup being done. I don’t know if she had another wedding to get to or if she just overestimated how much time it would take for all of us but the fact that she arrived so early and finished over an hour ahead of schedule made me feel like she had better places to be. Carina is great at what she does and all of the girls’ makeup looked beautiful. But her rushed attitude put a lot of undue stress on my wedding day. Not the way I wanted to start off my morning at all.

ere top priorities for me the day of my wedding and I was extremely happy and pleased with Flawless Faces. They also did hair and make-up for my step-mom and she looked gorgeous and was also very happy! Thank you!

ions. From the first point of contact, Carina showed such professionalism with her ability to respond. She and her team were able to accommodate my large bridal party, 10 bridesmaids, and a number of family members who also wanted to look flawless on the day of my wedding. At my trial appointment I was able to show pictures of my dress, bridesmaid dresses, blogs and ideas that I liked. Carina and Michelle both took time to listen to my ideas, but were also able to immediately understand what I was looking for based on my descriptions. My makeup at the trial looked fabulous and lasted for hours, long into the late hours of the night. My hair actually started to come undone a bit and when I mentioned this to Carina she immediately invited me back for another hair trial free of charge. She absolutely wanted me to feel confident in the work that she and her team would provide on the big day. The second hair trial went beautifully and Michelle even tried a few different options with me to make sure that I loved the way my hair would look. On a side note, Carina's shop is adorable with a number of accessories, gift ideas, and makeup options to purchase. I was able to find the accessory to use in my hair for the day of the wedding, it went absolutely perfect with my dress and overall look. Carina created a timeline for the entire group so that we would each be ready with plenty of time. On the day of the wedding, she and her team showed up perfectly on time to the hotel and spent so much time with each of us for hair and makeup. We were ready exactly at the time requested by the photographer and everyone looked absolutely stunning. I could not have been more happy with the quality of work provided. Our make up looked beautiful in the photos, with the dresses, and lasted the entire evening. Everyone's hair turned out beautifully and created such a perfect look to match the dresses and the romantic feel of the day. Carina and her team at Flawless Faces were so much fun to get ready with and they did an absolutely stunning job! I cannot wait to work with them again in the future for my makeup and hair needs!

to get my makeup and hair done with these ladies again!

ore anyone answered the phone.

e whole night, from 7AM to midnight, no problemo. I found that I kept going back to Carina's website rather than others because it looked more natural. When I did my trial, I was not quite sold because it looked SO heavy compared to my regular mineral makeup, but my fiance saw me and told me how beautiful my makeup looked and the look on his face was enough to convince me. After having my makeup done for the engagement photos, and then the wedding, I was more used to this made up look on me. It was still shocking to see it on my friends that all wear little makeup. It does look good in the photos and my bridesmaids were all very happy with it. We were all very happy with our hair too. At first my bangs were pinned back too tight but Michele worked on loosening them up into more of a swoop until I was happy with them. My bridesmaids were all very happy with their hair, they all chose their own styles. Carina took pictures and posted them to her blog. I didn't like some of the pictures she posted, I would have liked her to pose us better, or to take several and just post the few best ones. Overall though, we were all happy with our hair and makeup and it was very convenient to have them come to our hotel room. They showed up on time and we ended up a little ahead of schedule by the time they did all of us. We were actually all done by the time the videographer showed up so we had to fake some of it for the video. :)

helle was fast yet thorough in her hair designs, and framed our looks beautifully. Both were down to earth, and very easy to work with. They both came early and were very professional. I'm grateful to them for making us all have that extra glow on our wedding day!

k with. I had a large wedding party and she took her time and made each girl look absolutely stunning without looking "too made over." She is very easy going and has such a pleasant demeanor which is exactly the kind person you need around you on such a stressful day...especially with all the chaos we had running around our room the day of the wedding. Lots happening! I did a trial with her about a month before the wedding and brought a picture of my dress and ran through my idea of the kind of bridal make up I envisioned. With her expertise, she created and incredible look during the trial...a look that I didn't feel "too made over" or like I was wearing a mask. I plan to see her for any and all upcoming events when I need to get all dolled up. Thanks Jo!

and makeup done anytime I went to an event. I love the location of the studio and the decor in the studio as well. Definately would go back if I need my hair and makeup done in OC again!

ing! She is so sweet and her work is incredible! My bridesmaids and mom can't stop talking about how much they loved there makeup! Michelle was wonderful! I didn't have a picture of how i wanted my hair done i just described it to her and she did it spot on to what i imagined! She was so fast the day of the wedding and she got everyone done in record time!! All my girls loved there hair as well! I highly recommend flawless faces for any of your hair and makeup needs! I continue to use them for all my hair and makeup needs!!

k for more services in the future or recommend them to my friends.

ng and it lasted through a whole night of happy tears and dancing! I even woke up the next morning still flawless! I would recommend Flawless Faces for any special event, especially your wedding day!

hat used her for their weddings and she really knows how to do natural yet stunning makeup. She also does the makeup for the Orange County Housewives show. She really knows her stuff and is a reasonable price for weddings. I would highly recommend using her. She is the best!

r staff highly!

amazing! My guests (including the guys) all said they loved my look! I looked like me, just prettier! They both were on-time and we finised earlier than expected. They arrived at my house at 6:30 and we finished 2 bridesmaids, 1 mom, 3 flower girls, and myself by 10am. I will use Flawless Faces again for any formal event!!! Love you guys!

ext morning before our ceremony. Michelle did my hair and I was so pleased with the results. I had a few pictures showing the type of hairstyle I wanted, and she picked the one she thought would be best for my hair and it looked wonderful. My makeup was done by Cara and she was awesome as well. She did my makeup beautifully while still making me look natural. I loved the colors she picked for my eyes, cheeks, and lips too. Any feedback or adjustments I wanted to make she did flawlessly! I highly recommend Flawless Faces to anyone needing their makeup/hair done and will always come back here in the future if the need arises!

iment I received that day. LOVE HER!

them! They are popular though, so book early :)

s and I hired them for my Engagement session makeup and the pictures were amazing! They knew exactly what to do to make me look beautiful in my pictures. For my wedding I used Kelly, and even though I was very happy with their work, I knew what to expect at that point. Well the day of the wedding, I have to say that Kelly exceeded my expectations by far. She got me! She knew exactly right to the very last detail what would look great on me and what I wanted to 'say' with my makeup. She was awesome! I had to send my thank you's to Flawless Faces because I was so grateful for my makeup that day. Even after 10hrs I have to say my make up looked great. I don’t know what they do or how they do it, but they sure know what it takes to get that look for the camera!

an AMAZING job and everyone looked absolutely stunning. I would recommend them to ANYONE!

you and your bridesmaids are going to look your best on such an important day. They did a great job of making me look like a way better version of my normal self. And the hair and makeup LASTED the entire day. Molly's airbrushing work was great - you hardly even feel like you're wearing makeup and she also knows what color tones photograph best. Michelle did a great job giving each of us a different hair style while still keeping my bridesmaids looking cohesive. They were both right on time and stayed on schedule. If you get them you won't regret it!! :)

FLAWLESS and perfect! Carina was amazing to work with and I would recommend her and Rachael to everyone!
