Gina does incredible work, and she’s also such a genuinely fun and great person to be around, such positive and upbeat energy! My experience with her was 10/10. I knew I wanted my ...
hair and makeup professionally done for my wedding, but was really nervous about not looking like myself and feeling “overdone.” I’d never had my makeup professionally done before, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I couldn’t have been happier with my results. Gina really listens and partners with you throughout the process to ensure you feel your most confident. I couldn’t recommend her more!

I don’t know how to describe how important Gina was to my wedding day. I never once worried about the logistics, she showed up (on time) with every bit of beauty you could imagine....
All I wanted was to look like a fancy version of me and she did exactly that. Natural makeup with a beautiful braid. Beyond that, Gina connected with my family, she gave me the confidence I needed for my day and I can’t imagine starting wedding day with anyone else. Thank you so much for everything ❤️

Excellent Result. I cannot recommend Gina enough for her exceptional work on my wedding day. From the moment we discussed my vision, she completely understood the look I wanted and...
executed it flawlessly. I did the trial and also, we discussed how the makeup and hairstyle. The makeup was beyond perfect—she matched my skin tone (I’m an Asian) beautifully and used the colors I had always dreamed of. My hair was styled exactly as I had envisioned, adding that extra touch of elegance to my overall look.
Not only is Gina incredibly talented, but she is also punctual, arriving on time and ready to work her magic. Her friendly and warm demeanor made the entire experience enjoyable, and she went above and beyond by helping me wear my wedding gown with such care and attention to detail.
Thank you, Gina for making me feel like the most beautiful bride on my special day!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Gina for my wedding on 3/14/24. Gina is a kind-hearted professional who listens to your needs and does not make you feel like you have t...
o be anything besides yourself on your big day.
I'm not one to wear lots of make up so I was sensitive to feel like I had too much on. I explained that I didn't want dramatic contours or big eyebrows and she listened to me for sure.
When I sat down in the chair to have my make up done, she said to me, "I can feel your energy and I think you need to take a break and eat something." She was absolutely right, I was nervous as ALL hell, and after I had a bite to eat I felt like an entirely new woman.
If you're looking for someone to go above and beyond for your beauty needs, look no further, as Gina is the best in the Austin area.
We booked services for my bridesmaids, mom, sister, and I also completed a trial with her. She was communicative and excellent every step of the way. My bridesmaids also looked fantastic, and when I asked them about working with her assistant, they said they wouldn't have changed a thing, she did an excellent job for sure. If you are working with a budget, you are not sacrificing services here. I felt that she was very reasonably priced for her work, transparent throughout the entire experience, and her services were outstanding.
She curled my hair, pulled it back with some jewels I bought on Amazon, then she shared the jewels with the rest of my bridesmaids so we all matched, then she airbrushed my face make-up, covering every blemish. I had big bright eyes with complimentary eyeshadow, and a dark lip. I really felt like my features were highlighted, not overwritten.
An extra note, not that she would offer this to your group, but just to show how much of a team player she is-- we were late getting to the venue and ubers were taking a while, she actually drove the girls down to the venue for me with all of their luggage so they could make it on time to photos!! Like WHAT!!?
Gina is an all star human being and a wonderful make up & hair artist. I felt like myself but with longer lashes. She did an outstanding job and I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you again Gina, I am so pleased with my decision to work with you and your team.

rushes and curling irons in her hands are pure magic! She's the make-up artist that all brides are looking for. Someone who makes you look beautiful AND makes you FEEL gorgeous on your wedding day. Isn’t that what we are all searching for?
I went for the slightly elevated natural bridal look and she delivered beyond my expectations. Gina listens and wanted to understand my vision for my wedding hair and makeup.
She arrived early to my home and immediately made me and my entire family comfortable. She got right in with our group! My mom was nervous to get her hair and makeup done, but Gina made her so comfortable and happy with the end result. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and it was all because of Gina.

I had another family connection to her as well, what a small world. I showed my ideal makeup and hair look and Gina made it come to life. I wanted my makeup to look natural and my hair to be extravagant and Gina made me feel like a princess capturing my vision completely. The trial run was great beforehand to give me a taste of what I would look like the day of the wedding. She also had an excellent recommendation on where to go to get some hair extensions. My bridesmaids also got their makeup and hair done and everyone looked gorgeous. Gina and her other stylist worked with everyone’s styles, keeping their suggestions in mind to ensure everyone was happy. The entire bridal party was extremely happy with how they turned out and were ecstatic and amazed at the fantastic job the team did. We all loved the makeup and hair which lasted the entire day! Gina and her stylist were such a joy to work with and I am so glad she was part of my special day! I am however sad to see that she is moving because I don’t get to use for any future events. She was punctual, professional, and made the experience seamless and fun. I would recommend her to anyone!

Having Gina as my Hair and makeup artist was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding! She listened to exactly what I was thinking/wanting for my look as well as my concerns...
and made sure all were perfected. She arrived on time and stuck to the timeline perfectly so we were able to get to our venue on time. All of my girls loved their looks and she was able to accommodate their wishes, including adding in extensions for one girl. She also acted as a savior in many unexpected ways- helping zip a bridesmaid into a stuck dress, helping me deal with a different difficult vendor, taking photos of me and my girls to have right away, buttoning my dress and figuring out a solution when my hairpiece did not come as expected. You will not regret booking Gina for your wedding- I would recommend her to any friend in the future! Beyond the beautiful finished product, working with her and having her there on the big day made everything a breeze.
