Long Lasting & Luxury Bridal

I specialise in preparing your skin and creating luxurious, long-lasting makeup that helps you feel radiant on your wedding day. I take great care in crafting a bridal look that perfectly reflects your unique style and personality, ensuring you look and feel your best. Bridal makeup is incredibly meaningful to me. It’s more than just artistry; it’s a moment where creativity blends with emotion, and helping you feel truly beautiful as you step into such an important chapter of your life.

Your Seamless Bridal Preparation

On your wedding day, my bridal makeup service is designed to be a calming and enjoyable experience, helping you feel at ease before your big moment. During your trial, we will have explored all the options, ensuring you feel completely confident and relaxed.

I will travel to your chosen location, bringing all the essential products, including skincare and false lashes if desired. With a well-planned schedule in place, the morning will run smoothly and stress-free.

If we set a time for 8:00 AM, I will typically arrive by 7:45 AM to set up, ensuring I’m ready to begin right on time.

Makeup application usually takes between 30 to 45 minutes per person, with bridal makeup requiring around 60 minutes. For a bride with a 1:00 PM ceremony, I aim to have her in my chair by 10:30 AM. This timing allows the photographer, who usually arrives around 11:00 AM, to capture those beautiful makeup moments and final touches. By 11:30 AM, her makeup is complete, giving her plenty of time to enjoy a glass of bubbly, get into her dress, and share special moments with family and friends.

My techniques, along with the high-quality products I use, guarantee that your makeup will remain flawless from morning to night, both in person and in photos. The look we create on your wedding day will match your trial exactly, but if you decide on any last-minute adjustments, I’ll be happy to accommodate them.

NOT SURE WHICH MAKEUP style SUITS YOU?

My signature bridal makeup is a timeless blend of natural elegance and soft glam, designed to enhance your beauty in a way that feels effortlessly you.

A radiant, lit-from-within glow that reflects the love and happiness of your special day. Flawless skin, softly defined eyes, and the perfect lips seamlessly blended for a look that is polished to perfection both in person and on camera.

Every makeup artist has their own signature style, and while my most requested look is soft, radiant, and timeless, I truly believe bridal makeup should be as unique as the bride wearing it. Over the years, I’ve worked with brides who wanted everything from a barely-there, natural finish to full Hollywood glam and the “I completely trust you” bride.

Whether you have a clear vision or are unsure where to start, l’ll work closely with you to bring your dream look to life. With your inspiration and my expert techniques, refined over seven years in the industry, we’ll create a bespoke makeup look that makes you feel your most beautiful and confident on your big day.

The Bridal Makeup Trial

Bridal trials are one of the most favourite parts of my job. It’s a chance for me to sit down with each of my brides, chat about all things weddings plans, honeymoons, and of course, makeup! There are no need to feel nervous about the trial. Some brides come in with a clear vision of their wedding makeup, while others are unsure of what they want and both are absolutely fine with me!

Remember, a trial is exactly that- a trial! It’s the perfect time to experiment with different looks and see what feels best. It’s a collaborative process where we can tweak and adjust until we achieve the perfect result. Never worn lashes before but want to add a little definition? Let’s try a soft half lash during the trial so you can decide if it’s right for the big day! 

I always recommend wearing the makeup for a full day, checking it in different lighting, and even getting a few second opinions. That way, you can be sure it feels just right! We can always make adjustments on the wedding day itself, but the trial helps us establish a clear direction.

It can be useful to schedule your trial alongside a hair trial, dress fitting, hen do, or even a night out this way, you get to make the most of feeling gorgeous while also putting your look to the test!

Makeup trials are open to everyone, having makeup on the day from Mum, Nan, bridesmaids but I always suggest that the bride at least has a trial. There’s s no set rule for when to book one; some brides have just one, while others opt for two or three to explore different styles. 

THE NATURAL BRIDE

A fresh, lightweight foundation that enhances your skin while covering only what is necessary, keeping it looking natural and radiant.

The focus is on the eyes, creating an open and captivating look, with the option to add delicate individual lashes or a subtle strip lash.

Finished with a tinted balm or a soft gloss for a fresh and effortless glow.

THE SOFT GLAM BRIDE

The “SOFT” comes from a flawless yet naturally radiant complexion with medium coverage for a perfected but breathable finish.

A dimensional eye look enhances and brightens the eyes, with soft shimmers or a touch of sparkle adding a beautiful pop.

Completed with a lipstick and optional gloss for a polished and elegant finish.

THE FULL GLAM BRIDE

A full-coverage base that feels weightless while seamlessly concealing any imperfections. Contour can be enhanced for definition or kept subtle for a softer effect.

The eyes take centre stage with a blend of matte and shimmering shadows, creating depth and intensity.

A satin finish is a favourite for this look, ensuring long-lasting perfection throughout the day.

No matter which Signature Style speaks to you, each look is completely tailored and customisable to suit you perfectly on your big day.
