You are uniquely beautiful. Linda's approach is to highlight your best features and stay true to your individual style. Trained by Chanel Cosmetics, Linda has worked as a freelance makeup artist since 2005. She specializes in hair and makeup for weddings, media & fashion, and formal events with an eye for creating looks that are stunning in person and in photographs.
Linda is amazing! She is professional, talented, warm and a joy to work with. I coordinated my wedding on the Big Island from California, and I reached out to Linda based on reviews from a few websites. She was quick and helpful in responding to my emails so I decided to book her for my wedding makeup and a trial run.
Please send me a message with details on your event including dates, time, location, and any other details you would like to share. I will be in touch soon! Please Note: I am no longer located in Hawaii and therefore, I am no longer performing wedding services on the Big Island, or any other islands.

So happy to have found Linda to do my wedding make-up. Her warmth and awesome personality immediately put me at ease...we had never met before but I felt like I was hanging out with one of my girlfriends!
My make-up was flawless (even through all the happy tears) and I loved the products she used. I highly recommend her!

Linda is the best of the best! ✨⭐️My day was stressful to begin with, then last minute my hairdresser canceled on me😮...however Linda was able to put me at ease and went above and beyond to get my makeup and… hair done on time! (I remind you hair wasn’t in our agreement) Linda made me look and feel amazing for my photo shoot. She is extremely professional and has a heart of gold to match it! If you want quality service I recommend Linda!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Linda is a fabulous makeup artist. I have worked with Linda on several photoshoots and have referred her to many of my clients and all have been very happy with her makeup skills. She recently did makeup for a Day of the Dead creative studio photoshoot. Linda is reliable, professional, and very talented.

Linda is wonderful – she’s super talented and is just a great person. She did my makeup and hair for my wedding, my mom’s makeup and my sister’s hair. I live in the desert, so when I go somewhere with humidity, my hair gets crazy. I showed her a photo of what I’d like my hair to look like and she did it perfectly – and my hair wasn’t frizzy! I don’t wear a lot of makeup normally, but she made my skin glow and I still looked like myself for the wedding, which was very important to me. It was pretty hot during the ceremony, but my makeup stayed on (even with me crying! Lol) for the

I was recommended to Linda by my photographer. I did look at other MUAs on Instagram and Linda’s Instagram scrolling through all the photos before I reached out. She was quick to respond and answered all my questions. I was worried about spending the money on my makeup and not liking it or being too overdone. Linda was on time, professional, and… did an AMAZING job on my hair and makeup!! I showed her some inspiration I found on Pinterest and she did exactly what I asked for. I wish she could be my stylist everyday! Looking back at the photos, I am very happy that I choose Linda.

I am so happy that I had Linda for the wedding makeup! I did a trial run before the rehearsal dinner and I wasn’t sure how much makeup I wanted for my wedding. Linda knew which look would look good for me and all of my friends and families were impressed by her work. Linda also did the hair&makeup for my sister, sisters in law, and a mother in law. They all looked fantastic and they were really happy with her work. On the wedding day, it rained a bit but everyone’s make-up was waterproof and they looked pretty until the end! I was very impressed! I highly recommend her to any one who’s having

I needed my makeup done for a headshot, but I still wanted to look like me. Linda intuitively understood me and how to bring forth my best features. My pictures turned out amazing and gave me new found confidence in my professional image. I love the products she used on me, and her wonderful energy and presence put me at ease.

Linda did my hair and makeup for my wedding and she was so great to work with. She understood exactly what I was going for with my wedding day look; even with very little direction from my part.
I felt flawless after my hair and makeup were done. My husband told me after our first look that I was more beautiful then he could have imagined. I was so happy to hear that! I wanted to cry. I absolutely recommend Linda for your wedding day hair and makeup! She was definitely the best choice I could have made for my wedding!

I LOVED every minute of my experience with Linda. I was having my maternity pictures taken, & Linda made me feel like a new Mommy! I love that she is passionate about her art/profession, & it showed when she revealed my look. She has the best products, techniques, & results! If you are on the big island looking for a makeup artist, connect with Linda..you won’t be disappointed. I felt more beautiful inside & out, & I know you will too when you have Linda as your makeup artist!

If you need a makeup artist and you happen to be on the big island of Hawaii look no further. First off I had a very difficult time trying to find a makeup artist who was even reliable enough to respond in a decent amount of time. From the initial contact I was so happy and finally felt as if my wedding was coming together. She did such an amazing job with my makeup. She gave me the exact look I was going for. I'm definitely a brown girl and I'm always afraid colors won't match. She got my color perfect! I received so many compliments thank you so much Linda. My makeup lasted the entire night and

It was such a pleasure to work with Linda. She was very professional and very detail-oriented. She also had excellent communication with me before my wedding. I got so many compliments on my wedding day! I loved a lot of the products she used so she was kind enough to email me a list of some products she used. She also uses high-end, good quality products so that definitely was a plus. I’m so glad I chose Linda to be my makeup artist. It was such a great experience and I felt so pampered and beautiful!

I hired Linda for hair & makeup services for my wedding. She exceeded my expectations & I could not have entrusted anyone more to make me look and feel more beautiful on my wedding day. Linda showed up to my hotel room early and she was so enthusiastic and fun while working with my bridal party. You could really tell that she shared in our joy and loves what she does. I’d recommend Linda to anyone looking for a hair and/or makeup artist for their wedding!

Linda is a truly awesome makeup artist. My youngest daughter got married in Kona, Hawaii this past Saturday and Linda was her artist. Initially my daughter had a difficult time locating someone to do her makeup because they kept giving her the run around. Then she found Linda online. From the initial contact Linda proved to be a woman of her word.… She was in constant connection with her until the day of her wedding. She arrived on time and went right to work. She is friendly, compassionate, professional and even humorous at times. She made my beautiful daughter more glamorous than ever

Linda is AMAZING! Linda did the makeup for my daughter's wedding along with both of the mothers. It was such a great treat to have someone so skilled do my make-up. No smudges when tears of joy were flowing, and my lashes stayed on until the next day when I sadly pealed them off. Linda made me feel beautiful, and it was so nice to be pampered… on such a wonderful day. Her artistic skills, efficiency, and great personality made the experience wonderful. I highly recommend Linda for bringing out the natural beauty in you and tailoring your makeup for you, so you feel comfortable and beautiful

I was so lucky to have Linda do my makeup for my wedding. She did the makeup for me, my mom, and two of my bridesmaids and she did a fabulous job! She was very professional, knowledgeable, patient and also willing to satisfy our needs and wants. She used good quality makeup products and made me feel like the prettiest bride ever. The makeup was… also very long lasting. I cried from the start of the wedding...and was tipsy by the end. But I got back to my hotel room with my makeup still looking fantastic, and no scary black eyes!
My mom and bridesmaids were very happy about their makeup too
