Excellent Service

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Bowie for my wedding. She’s knowledgeable, experienced, and incredibly adaptable. She listened to my needs, and her professionalism and punctuality were impeccable. My makeup was flawless and lasted all day, even it was raining outside. Highly recommend her for any bride looking for the best!

Amazing makeup artist; a person you can totally rely on and trust on your big day.

I was so thankful that I met Bowie and had her to be my makeup artist for my wedding. I first engaged her for a wedding makeup trial and I would highly recommend for anyone. On the wedding day:
(1) the quality of the makeup - Bowie is really good at it and professional; my makeup lastest all day long and Bowie was there to help with touch-ups (2) Bowie would really go the extra mile to accommodate your preferences - I am an Asian but way tanner so it was important for me to let her find a look that compliments my complexion; also, I did let her know what other eye makeup preferences so she actually studied my features prior to the wedding and bought makeup that suits just for my wedding day! (3) A person to trust on your big day: What I found most important and grateful is that Bowie is genuinely very nice and someone you can trust on the day. She would share all the wedding experience and make sure you don't panic since the start of the day. She makes you feel good and make sure you glow inside out - and that I was most thankful for!

Absolutely recommend Bowie for the quality of her work and her professionalism. Thank you very much again Bowie for all your hard work for my wedding day 💖

Best make-up I've ever had

Bowie has been very helpful since the day I messaged her. As a person who never has make-up, she gave me advice on facial and hair care. She also picked the best make-up and hair style for me. Whenever I had any questions or doubts, she always responses professionally. Although my bridemaid was not available for the make-up trial, she could pick the most suitable make-up and hair style for her based on a selfie. I and my bridemaide are so happy to have her on my special day.

She made my day ! :)

Words can't express how grateful I am for this makeup artist's talent. She is an absolute game-changer and she didn't just enhance my features. Also, she brought out my inner radiance and attention to detail was impeccable, ensuring I felt like the most beautiful version of myself.
Her calming presence during such a hectic time was a bonus. If you're seeking an artist who can turn dreams into reality, look no further. Thank you for making this pre-wedding journey even more special!" 💄💍✨👰🏼

Would recommend Bowie again!

Bowie is really professional, very nice, always quick to respond and gave me helpful tips for make up and hair styles for my wedding day. The make up trial was at her studio in Edinburgh, and very helpful.
The pricing for bridesmaids hair and makeup was very good value for money, I guess this was offset by the bride's package which was much more.
I would go with Bowie again!
