Christina Choi Cosmetics Reviews, Prices, Services, Photos

Christina is such a joy to work with. I’m a photographer and have had her do make up on my subjects and have also been the subject of her make up artistry. I hired her as my make up artist for my own wedding and reception and we just did the trial session in which we figure out the look I want for my big celebration.

Christina is a true artist and professional who loves to play up the natural beauty of each of her subjects and also listens to her clients to meet their needs. She also has a very calming and intuitive presence and she clearly enjoys making her clients shine. Christina talked me through her process of adding layers to each look for a different effect and watched to see my responses – subtle to more dramatic – and took pictures along the way so I could review afterwards and think about which one I liked the most. She made me feel comfortable and beautiful. I can’t wait for my big day and know that Christina will help me look my best! Thank you CC!

I went to Christina for my bridal makeup & trial and had a wonderful time working with her. she’s totally changed my experiences working with a professional MUA and I’ll be going back for her class.

I was originally expecting to do my own bridal makeup as I’ve had experiences in the past working with MUAs (as a bridesmaid) that I didn’t want again. I’d gotten out of those sessions changing my makeup afterwards, feeling like it was an expensive way to learn the artist did not have much experience with faces/eyes like mine – most of the time they’d try a pretty style that works well on other faces and features, but just wouldn’t work well for me and my eye shape. I enjoy and use makeup often, so I’ve been comfortable doing it myself for other events since.

This time, I wanted to reduce the stress and have some relaxation for my wedding and being in the Bay Area, I figured I could find a MUA capable of helping me. I was comfortable doing it for my wedding, if needed/I didn’t find someone with the characteristics I was looking for. I searched for someone like Christina who would and could work with Asian features like mine and compliment them with makeup, took a chance, and I’m very happy I did.

Christina was professional and reached back out to me quickly and helped me coordinate time with her for the trial and wedding on relatively short notice. I was lucky my ceremony was on Wednesday, so more availability.

I’ve had the same makeup look I’ve done for over the last decade, but she tried and taught me some new looks I really liked on myself and wore for my wedding.

I’m planning on a larger destination reception next year, and since I won’t have Christina there with me, I’ll be taking her class to prepare to do it myself then.

Highly recommend and thanks to Christina for truly making me feel seen and beautiful for my big day!

I recently had the pleasure of attending an in-person makeup session with the incredibly talented Christine Choi, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. Having initially taken a virtual lesson with her during COVID, I was impressed by her expertise and teaching style. However, the in-person session took my admiration to a whole new level.

From the moment I walked in, Christine’s professionalism shone through. She greeted me warmly and immediately put me at ease, creating an environment that was conducive to learning and experimentation. Her patience was evident as she took the time to understand my preferences and skill level, ensuring that the session was tailored to my needs.

One of the highlights of the session was Christine’s focus on teaching me how to do makeup specifically for single eyelids. This is a technique that requires precision and understanding of individual eye shapes, and Christine executed it flawlessly. Her step-by-step guidance and personalized tips were invaluable, and I left the session feeling confident and equipped with new skills.

What sets Christine apart is not just her technical proficiency, but also her ability to connect with her students on a personal level. She genuinely cares about their progress and goes above and beyond to ensure their success. Her passion for makeup is infectious, and it’s clear that she loves what she does.

In conclusion, I cannot recommend Christine Choi’s in-person sessions highly enough. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced makeup enthusiast, you’ll undoubtedly benefit from her expertise, professionalism, and genuine passion for her craft.

Christina was such a great partner! We offered professional headshots at a leadership team offsite, and Christina provided makeup. The team felt great and looked amazing – such a confidence booster! She made everyone feel so comfortable. I could not recommend her enough! She is incredibly professional and personable.

I recently hired Christina for a photo shoot for my portfolio and I was so glad I found her! The photographer that I hired had suggested a couple of make up artists that he had worked with but when I saw their work I was less than impressed. I did a Google search and was looking for someone that had editorial experience and found Christina. I had no idea what to expect but ended up being so happy not only with the way the makeup was applied but the fact that she paid close attention to every detail and was also able to make educated suggestions on my wardrobe and accessories, due to her editorial background. The results were stunning and I now have a go-to artist! Thank you, Christina!
