I am ecstatic to have found Joelle! Back in the early aughts, I had the opportunity to have my m/u done by some of Hollywood’s top artists and I can honestly say no one made me feel as gorgeous and glam as Joelle did! Her work was stunning!! I’m trying to figure out another event where I can call on her. THANK YOU Joelle for taking such great care of me, including the masque you used to prep! My skin felt like silk for a few days afterward! Until next time ~ which i hope is very soon! Xo

Details: Special occasion • 45 - 64 years old • Standard (brushes, sponges, etc.) • 1 person • My home, venue, etc.

Wow, thank you so much for such an incredible review! I’m beyond honored to hear that you felt as gorgeous and glam as you did with your makeup. It was a pleasure to work with you, and I’m so happy to hear your skin felt amazing after the prep. I can’t wait for the next opportunity to create another stunning look for you. Until then, take care, and I look forward to working with you again soon! Xo”

My sister and I travelled from Virginia to be present at our nephew's wedding, and it was during this special occasion that we entrusted Joelle to work her makeup magic. I can't stress enough how truly exceptional she is. She arrived promptly, exuding warmth that immediately put us at ease. Joelle not only accommodated our unique makeup preferences with attentive care but also showcased her remarkable skill. Her artistry left us feeling like glamorous stars, and I find myself wishing for her transformative touch in Virginia every day. Joelle, your talent, generosity, and time are deeply appreciated. For those seeking the pinnacle of makeup artistry in California, look no further than Joelle – she's simply unparalleled.

Details: Wedding • 26 - 44 years old • I'm flexible • False lashes • 2 people • My home, venue, etc.

Joelle was great to work with! She’s extremely meticulous on her application so just make sure you book enough time for her to do her magic. She traveled nearly 3 hours to do my glam for an event and I’m so very grateful she did!
