Whether you're dreaming of a dramatic updo or casual curls, funky makeup or the girl-next-door glow, Santa Clarita's finest beauty professionals can turn imagination into reality.


A twist on the classic updo, combined with a glowing neutral makeup palate, is a combination that will surely prevent wedding pictures from looking dated a decade from now. For a touch of symbolic nostalgia, use a favorite family member's rhinestone pendant, a stick-pin or a flower from their garden in your hair.

Perfect wedding eye makeup should do more than downplay the fact that you haven't slept in two days. Eyes, we are told, are windows to the soul. Yours should "pop" with a balanced use of highlighter, contour and liner - and don't forget lots of waterproof mascara! Relaxed waves, added to this soft look, equal girl-next-door gorgeous.

For most of the wedding ceremony, your guests will be staring at the back of your head. Entrance them with a partial-updo that's incredibly feminine and elegant. As for the reception, bat those lush lashes and enjoy the moment!

Weddings don't have to be overly formal events. Let your hair down (literally and figuratively) and embrace your fun, flirty self - you know, the woman he fell in love with! Stay-put makeup will make your day even more stress free.
