Working with Tiffany was a wonderful experience for my wedding! She was kind, thoughtful, and very attentive to all of my and my husband's questions and needs. I was specifically looking for someone with experience working on Asian features and Tiffany and her team more than delivered! She did both a trial and full makeup for myself and my husband for our wedding and was very easy to work with throughout the entire process. Both Tiffany and her two assistant artists were very patient with any feedback and adjusted each look to my and my bridal party's preferences. We received many compliments from our guests about how wonderful everyone looked! Highly recommend!

Thank you for your sweet words, Melody! We loved taking your soft, Thai-inspired vision from the trial and tailoring it to your features and personal style, rather than simply following a trend. You two make such a gorgeous couple! We were all so happy to be part of your wedding day. Can’t wait to see your fabulous photos!
Updated Review October 2025:
Tiffany is beyond talented and super amazing! My dad, who rarely comments on anything, was very impressed with Tiffany's make up on me; this means something. She spent the whole day with me for my 3 looks and took care of every details. She pays attention to the uniqueness of my facial features and uses her skills in enhancing them with make-up; please note that I use the word enhancing, not altering. She listened to my wishes and executed accordingly. If you want a MUA who knows her crafts and will do everything in her power to make it happen, please book Tiffany. Highly recommends!!!
Prior reviews April 2025:
She was great! Had a trial session with her back in April and it was such a lovely experience. She attends to your preferences, face shape and skin tone as well to create a customized look. The trial session took about a couple of hours, and it is done right at her studio, which she will share the address once you have the session booked/confirmed. We had a great time chatting about our interests as well, so certainly, it will not be an awkward time for you to just sit and twiddle your thumbs lol. Cannot wait to have her and her team help us out at our wedding later this fall 2025!
P.S. photography credit is with a different vendor.

Hey Phuong! Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review! I'm so glad you enjoyed your trial session—it was such a pleasure getting to know you and customizing a look that complements your features and personal style. I always aim to create a relaxing and fun experience, so I'm happy to hear you felt comfortable and connected during our time together. I can't wait to glam you and your bridal party this fall 2025—it's going to be such a beautiful celebration!

Simply put: Tiffany is amazing and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Bay Area makeup artist for ANY special occasion. I’ve seen her a few times over the years and every time she’s delivered flawless foundation matching, perfectly blended eyeshadow that lasts until the following day, makeup that lasts the whole day of your event (including lipstick, which I didn’t even know was possible), professional service, and more.

Hey Celine! Thank you so much for your generous words and continued trust over the years—it truly means a lot to me! I'm so happy to hear the makeup held up beautifully and that you felt confident and flawless for each special occasion. Perfect foundation matching and long-lasting wear are always a top priority, especially for events in the Bay Area where we want you to look fresh from start to finish. I’m so grateful for amazing clients like you who make this work so rewarding. Can’t wait to see you in town again for the next celebration!

Tiffany did an amazing job for my wedding hair and makeup. She knew I wanted natural, elegant style, which she delivered perfectly. She is extremely professional yet very personable and caring. I recommend her highly for any hair or make service!
Tiffany is so sweet and takes her time with every last detail. I have had my hair and makeup trial so far and I cannot wait for my wedding day. She uses very high quality products and does an exceptional job!

From the trial to the final touches, I enjoyed create a personalized look each time to bring out your unique beauty. Thank you again for trusting me!

I got an 1-on-1 makeup class with Tiffany. I asked her to teach me the most foundational skills in makeup, especially applying foundation and eye makeup (the two skills i was not very good at). The class was fun and i feel like time passed by so fast. Tiffany was very detailed and thorough, she explained everything to me as we proceed through each step. I was a bit embarrassed to show her my makeup collection but she assured me that's okay. She would look through the products I have and tell me what works for my skin and my facial features. I also really like the products that she used on my face. I have purchased them after our session :) After the class, i was able to do my own makeup and I feel so happy that my makeup stays all day long and does not look dull or cakey. Highly recommend learning makeup with Tiffany! She's truly a treasure. And make sure that you take note as you will learn a lot of things during the session and might want to look into it later!

Tiffany is very talented at hair and makeup, however, I have to leave a 3 star review because she was an hour late on our actual wedding day and didn’t respond to texts or emails for the first 45min after she was supposed to arrive. Mistakes happen, but not communicating meant that I truly believed she might not be showing up so I frantically called friends and family to help me think of an emergency plan. We ended up having to push the entire wedding back, rushed through the hair and makeup, and it added a huge amount of stress to the day.
I would recommend booking Tiffany as your make up artist for your wedding!! She was responsive, punctual, and I trusted her to make me feel and look beautiful on my wedding day. I knew I wanted something simple and minimal for my face make up, and she did a great job making my make up look just that while also helping to highlight and accentuate my features so that it showed up well in all my photos. I couldn't be happier with the way it looked and it lasted the entire night for me.
On top of this, Tiffany and her team also did my bridesmaids' and mother in law's make up and hair, and made them look so stunning. She completed everyone's hair and make up on time and I am just so happy with the way everything turned out. I would book her again for any future big events I have, I completely trust her to make me look and feel beautiful. Thank you so much Tiffany!

Hey Madalyn,
Thank you so much! It was such a joy to be part of your wedding day and to help you and your loved ones feel beautiful and confident. I’m really glad everything came together smoothly and that you loved your look. Wishing you all the best in this new chapter and Looking forward to see you again for the next special event!

Tiffany and Team
Tiffany is such a talented hair and makeup artist! I’m not much of a hair and makeup person myself, so I really had no choice but to give her free reign. I am so glad I trusted her because I looked gorgeous on my wedding day! I could hardly believe that I could look so beautiful, but the “soft glam” look she customized for me worked wonders! I knew I could count on her after my trial run, and she didn’t disappoint! I looked so amazing on my wedding day that my sister booked her for her own wedding. Book Tiffany and I promise she will not disappoint!

Hey Alexis!
Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly an honor to create your soft glam look and help you feel beautiful on your wedding day. I’m so glad you trusted me, and it means the world that your sweet sister booked me as well—now I get to glam you both again for these special moments! Seeing you shine on your big day was such a joy, and I wish you all the happiness as you begin this wonderful new chapter. Thank you again for letting me be part of your celebration!

If you’re reading this review, do NOT hesitate. Book Tiffany as your MUA immediately! I knew to go to Tiffany because she did my sister’s hair and makeup last year and did a phenomenal job. I booked her as my MUA before I even had the venue locked down, which shows how much I love her. So far, I have done my hair and makeup trial with her. I went to the trial with an idea about what I wanted for my hair, but Tiffany knew instantly that the style would make me look more mature and still showed me the look anyways, and she was right! She helped me with another hairstyle that complimented my face and dress so much more and I have her to thank for the masterpiece that ensued. Tiffany’s experience and expertise is so valuable because she really works with you to make sure that the hairstyle and makeup suits you. In terms of the makeup, she gave me a beautiful soft glam look using her very high quality products. She even shaped my brows. I looked like a new person afterwards. She really took her time with both the hair and the makeup, and gave pointers on how to hydrate my skin and improve my skin routine. My mom and two sisters came to the trial with me and we all laughed and had such a great time. I keep on looking at the photos because I am so happy with the end result . Tiffany is truly an artist and I trust her completely with all my needs. I’m so happy I have her booked for my wedding in October and feel very confident about my look!

Thank you for trusting me to be a part of it. Wishing you so much love and happiness as you begin this beautiful new chapter!
