✨Lashes make all the difference✨
I specialize in faux lash customization—because no two eyes are the same. The placement and style of your lashes are carefully designed to enhance your natural eye shape and bring balance and beauty to your look.

It’s not one-size-fits-all, it’s artistry. 💫

✨Nothing makes my heart fuller than hearing from my brides ✨
Nora shared this beautiful testimonial about her Joya Beauty experience, and it means the world to me.

My goal is always the same: to make every bride feel comfortable, cared for, and radiant on one of the most photographed days of her life. Knowing I made that kind of impact is the best gift I could ask for.

💍 Brides, when you’re choosing your artist, you deserve someone who shows up fully for you—from the very first conversation to the final lipstick touch on wedding morning. That’s what I promise every Joya bride.

It was such a joy to be part of her intimate celebration and create a look that felt timeless, radiant, and uniquely her.

What is the true meaning of mentor?

A mentor is a person who can support, advise and guide you. They typically take the time to get to know you and the challenges you’re facing and then use their understanding and personal experience to help you improve.
From the first makeup show 20 years ago this man has been my hero, mentor, and dear friend. I hear his voice in my ear with every swipe of my brush
