Recap — Aug 30 Beauty Social
What a turnout! Sunday, August 30 at the Holiday Inn & Suites was one of our best sessions yet — and we were so happy to welcome new contestants who came with friends and family.

Professional Makeup
The Chamber provided makeup and taught the young women how to apply it professionally — from everyday polish to full pageant glam.
Catwalk Training
Led by Ashley Lai, Miss LA Chinatown 1st Princess 2026. Thank you, Ashley, for sharing your poise and stage presence with our contestants.
Photoshoot
Professional headshots for every contestant, courtesy of Mr. Minh Trinh. Thank you, Minh, for capturing everyone beautifully.
