makeup artist rec

I'm getting married at the Hyatt Morristown on September 18, 2010.  I need someone to do my makeup, but I need recommendations.  Can anyone help?  I'm asian, so I'd prefer an asian makeup artist or someone who has a lot of experience with asian faces.  Any recommendations? I'd prefer someone who can come to the hotel to do the makeup and who is reasonabley priced.

Thanks.

    I used Gina Brozon and would highly recommend her: http://ginabrozon.com/

    I don't know about her experience with Asian brides, but she did a wonderful job on me, my sister/MOH (we're fair-skinned Irish) and my other bridesmaid (Cuban).

    Ditto MB - Highly recommend Gina Brozon. Not sure about her experience with asian brides, but I'm sure if you ask she has plenty of pictures of her work and you can judge for yourself.

    My cousin is a co-owner of a spa and has created her own makeup line.  She is busy each and every weekend with brides and bridal parties.  She will be doing me and my entire bridal party!  I would give her a call.  Tell her you were referred by Carrie.  Her name is Leanne.

    Thanks for responding to this oft posted question.  I've been scouring the boards for recommendations and got a bunch.  I found the "search boards" line right after I posted. 

    I've emailed a bunch, including Gina to see about their experience with Asian faces and regarding availability!

    Thanks again.

    Christina Reciniti - my bridesmaids were a league of nations; Irish, Chinese, Itallian, etc.  She is a pro!

    Thanks for the suggestions, I've emailed a bunch and a lot of them are already booked... I'm trying to decide if I want to go with Christine at colormakeupstudio.com or Jillyana Scarpa or the salon across the street from the hotel, which is much cheaper... i have to do trials I guess, but it's so much money...
    Has anyone ever used Aura Salon in Morristown?  How is their makeup?
