About me:

Hi, I'm Karen, the owner of Contour & Cuticles, offering both professional makeup and nail services in Chesterfield, Derbyshire.
I'm a VTCT-qualified makeup artist and Bio Sculpture-qualified nail technician, specialising in wedding and special occasion makeup. My aim is to ensure that brides and their wedding parties look and feel absolutely perfect, just as they envision for their special day.

My passion for makeup began with my own journey—after struggling with oily skin, I spent years perfecting my skincare and makeup routine. As a result, my kit is now tailored to suit a variety of skin types and tones.

Although I'm relatively new to the professional makeup industry, my passion and skills are unwavering. I believe that having the perfect makeup look on one of the biggest days of your life is non-negotiable.

Services I offer:

I offer professional makeup services for the bride, bridesmaids, and any special family members who would like to feel their best on the big day.

When it comes to makeup, I'm a strong advocate for cruelty-free brands and always prioritise vegan options where possible. I use only the highest-quality products that not only align with these values but also ensure your makeup lasts throughout the day with minimal, if any, touch-ups, allowing you to fully enjoy your special day and all its moments.

I use several high-end brands, including Lisa Eldridge, Hourglass, Tarte, Tatcha, Charlotte Tilbury, VB Beauty, and Anastasia Beverly Hills.

A consultation and trial aren't compulsory but highly recommended to ensure the perfect look. I offer them from my quiet and cosy home salon in Chesterfield.

Where I can travel:

I'm more than happy to travel beyond Derbyshire, including neighbouring counties like Nottinghamshire, Yorkshire, or Lincolnshire. I also offer bespoke packages tailored to the size of your bridal party and any travel requirements, ensuring everything fits your needs perfectly.
