September 2024 Wedding

I had the most amazing experience with Carys as my wedding makeup artist! Her work is absolutely stunning, and she truly made me and my entire bridal party look and feel beautiful. From the moment I met her at the makeup trial, I knew we were in great hands. Carys is incredibly friendly, and her calming presence made the whole experience so enjoyable.

On the big day, she handled the challenge of getting 9 ladies ready effortlessly, keeping everything on schedule while making sure each person looked perfect. Her attention to detail is amazing, and she knew exactly how to bring out everyone’s natural beauty. The products she used were lovely, and our makeup looked flawless throughout the entire day.

I can’t recommend Carys enough! She’s not only a talented makeup artist but also such a kind and calming person to have around on your wedding day. Thank you, Carys, for making us all feel so gorgeous!

Wedding Makeup

Carys provided makeup for myself, my sister and step-mum.

Carys is a lovely person and made us all feel very relaxed and comfortable on the day. We all loved the makeup and it lasted right until the end of the evening!

From the trial to on the day, Carys made sure I was happy with everything and made sure we all had the makeup looks that we wanted.

Overall we had a great experience, and would definitely recommend Carys.

Friendly, punctual, listens to what you want, great at creating a classic look

Carys, what fantastic for both my trail and on the day of my wedding. She gave good skin care advice as a total novice. She knew from the get go exactly what I wanted; a classic, natural and fresh look for my wedding day. Carys is also just a very good listener and very personable, I felt comfortable enough to tell her if I felt uncomfortable and when I loved her work. And most importantly I felt calm with her on my wedding day, to the point she handed me my breakfast so I could eat before getting dressed!

Excellent service; kind and supportive; beautiful look!

I was extremely pleased with the whole process: Carys was great at responding, had reasonable prices, was punctual, pleasant, and tidy and most importantly of all created the most beautiful bridal look for me. I wanted something natural but special - the makeup was light and elegant and my lovely hairdo was perfect for my fine hair. My maid of honour has already asked for Carys' details for her wedding. Thank you so much, Carys! x

Wedding Make-Up

Carys helped with the make-up for all my bridesmaids for my wedding in May, and she was amazing. She listened to everyone and made sure that they were happy with their make-up. Everyone felt so at ease during the morning and Carys made sure there was as little stress as possible. Everyone commented about how friendly and calming she was, and I cannot thank her enough!

Bridal Makeup

Carys was the ultimate professional. She was attentive, answering any questions we had throughout the whole process.
She offered a trial which was fabulous and gave me and my daughters the opportunity to try out our desired wedding looks. She was flexible with any slight tweaks we preferred for the actual day.
On the day itself she arrived as scheduled and made us all feel at ease. We were all delighted with our finished looks and felt beautiful. I would highly recommend this lovely lady and the outstanding service she provides.

Brilliant from start to finish!

Carys did my bridal make up as well as makeup for 4 members of my bridal party. From my first message to Carys she was warm and friendly, she was keen to understand everything I was looking for and quick to answer all my questions. When myself and my mum had our trials, Carys instantly put us at ease, and made sure we loved our makeup and felt comfortable with the finished look. On the day, she was brilliant at keeping us all calm and making sure all of my bridal party went out feeling our very best! From the moment I met Carys I knew I'd made the right choice, she did beautiful makeup for all of us and you know you are in safe hands!

Highly recommend!! 🩷

Carys did a fantastic job of making me look and feel beautiful for my wedding day - I couldn't be happier with the final result. Carys is not only a talented artist and incredibly professional, she’s also an upbeat person and pleasure to be around.

She was warm, professional, and attentive to my needs and preferences. Carys took the time to understand the look I was going for and provided valuable suggestions that enhanced my vision.

The makeup lasted beautifully throughout the day, and I received numerous compliments on my look! Carys's talent and dedication to her craft truly shone through.

I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking a makeup artist who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about her clients. Thank you, Carys, for making me feel beautiful and confident!

The BEST MUA and Hair Stylist!

Carys was amazing, right from enquiry to the day of the wedding. I couldn't have asked for any more. She listened so carefully to what I wanted and made me feel a million dollars! The make up I had was not over the top, but made me feel special for my wedding. Carys also did my hair, and I loved it, as it suited me and my dress so well. Carys did the make up and hair of my mum and maid of honour too and they both looked beautiful. She gave loads of tips beforehand to improve my skin and stayed in regular contact. Carys really listened to what I wanted at the trial, and followed what I wanted carefully- and recreated the look perfectly on the day! In addition, Carys is just the loveliest person, who was so kind and helpful, and really helped me feel at ease on my big day. I have no hesitation in recommending her services to any other bride!

Beautiful makeup which lasted

Carys was a very last minute replacement when my original make up artist fell poorly the night before my wedding.

I hadn’t had a trial with Carys so she made sure to ask all about my skin type/ concerns and the kind of look I wanted.

I felt comfortable enough to ask for small changes to the makeup and was really happy with the result. She was a friendly and calming presence.

My makeup lasted better than it ever has done before and Carys has since shared the products she used via Instagram DM. I loved the glowing skin especially.

I would 100% book Carys in the future!

Thanks so much!

Lovely start to the wedding day

My daughter booked Carys to do makeup and hair for her, 3 bridesmaids, plus mothers of bride and groom. We spent a really fun chilled morning with Carys and Shannon. They were excellent, put everyone at ease and contributed to a really relaxed and lovely morning. We were all really happy with the end results and would definitely recommend Carys.
