Studio W has left the Building!!

Exciting news - We have decided to expand our company’s wedding services working with vendors and brides in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, San Diego and Las Vegas. *News *News *News - We’ve moved out of our downtown location on Smith St. This started out as a great place to start our boutique makeup studio. As we discovered the Chinatown district in downtown Honolulu was not the right fit for us. We have a high level of standards and sophistication and the atmosphere we create for our clientele is very important to us. So we bid Chinatown – adieux!!!

Movie News- Wendy will be working on an yet untitled project will blog back with all the cool details.

Studio W is adding new staff as we continue to grow and expand!

I had so much fun in the last master class I can’t remember when I laughed so much, thanks ladies for making this last class a blast! Pictured from left to right - Deva, Angelina, Marylou, Me, Selina and Bianca

New Year - Time of Change

My new year’s promise is to update this blog more often! January was fantastic we met so many awesome brides at the Bridal Expo. Special thanks to all the models; who we were able to work our magic on. They all looked so pretty walking the expo floor in their wedding gowns. We can't wait to get some images from Eugene.



We won the brides choice award for 2010 from weddingwire.com!! We are in the top 5% of wedding vendors locally and nationally who have won this award; for quality, excellence in service and professionalism. Yay..






February finishing up the master makeup class- I had some wonderful students in my class. Wishing them all the best on their makeup journeys.. Tiana Tong one of our students, I have to give her a shout - she placed 4th in the world competition for face and body painting in Austria. Pretty cool. I'll include some pics of them doing what they do best, being creative..


























March we are offering our professional makeup artists classes; on Hairstyling- for brides, commercial, fashion looks and photo shoots.
