Seeking Referrals for a Professional Makeup Artist

Hi! I have an important event to attend in late May. I would like to hire a professional makeup aritist to apply my makeup at my home. Anyone have a good experience with someone and care to pass along the artist's contact info? I have often gone to makeup counters at dept stores, but (with all due respect), I have most often had someone with a heavy hand doing my makeup (aka- cake face).

Edit: I live in Fullerton with a budget around $100
Thanks so much in advance!

What can I do next?

I know a great person - Cherry - she's own Cherry's Salon in West Covina but does home visits too. She's always busy so you have to schedule an appt in advance. She's really good - she also does the hair and make up for Phillipian pageant contestants. I think you'll like her. She came to my house to do the bridal party for my sister's wedding and I've been going to her for 8 years.

Here's the contact info for the make-up artist that I used for my wedding a few years ago:

Tamari Zeiler
Lancome Beauty Advisor
Macy's Lakewood
340 Lakewood Center Mall
Lakewood, CA 90712
562-529-511 ext. 2358

I don't know if she's still there, as it's been a few years now. But she was wonderful. I went into Macy's for a trial run before my wedding and loved the colors that she chose for my face...very natural. She came to my house on an early Saturday morning on the day of my wedding, was prompt, and made me look beautiful for my wedding.

Good luck!

I'm a wedding photographer and photographed a bride whose make-up was awesome and lasted all day without looking caked-on or melting away throughout the long day. I asked her for the info on her make-up artist (that came to her at the Mission Inn in Riverside even though the salon is in Glendale) and here it is...
-----------------------
The name of the salon that came to do both my hair and make-up at the hotel is Bella Nella Salon...they are fantastic. I strongly urge this person to specifially ask for Jennifer. Jennifer is fabulous and does any style of make-up she requests...They are located in Glendale. Let me know if you need any additional info.

(you can view a few images of this bride on our blog at http://www.silverlineblog.blogspot.com/ but you have to scroll down to the March 22nd entry for Nancy.)
