Makeup style
If you’re looking for a beautiful natural-looking makeup, I’m your artist! I believe in celebrating your unique features rather than covering up, ensuring that your natural beauty shines through with a style that's both flattering and personalised to you and your wedding.
About me
I used to have bad acne-prone skin which sent my confidence in a downward spiral. I did a lot of research and learned how to do subtle corrective makeup which is transformative with unhappy, blemished skin. It looks and feels super light and natural, whilst covering imperfections without further damaging the skin, and my passion in natural makeup grew from there. For the past ten years, I've been refining my skills on top of a bachelor's degree in makeup, dedicated to bringing out the natural beauty in every client I meet.
Ethos
Conscientious beauty is at the heart of everything I do. All of the products I use are vegan and cruelty-free, reflecting my commitment to ethical beauty practices since I started my business on day one.
Skincare
I also believe that how you feel in just your own skin can massively determine how you feel with your makeup on too. Although I started my career in makeup, I've learned that great makeup starts with great skincare, so I prioritise products that are kind to both your skin and the planet too. As part of my service, I work closely with you in the lead-up to your big day, offering personalised skincare support to ensure you look and feel your absolute best, both on your wedding day and afterwards.
Creating your wedding makeup
I'm here to listen to your ideas and either build on your inspiration to enhance your natural beauty, or to help you from scratch to create your perfect wedding makeup and ensure you walk away feeling confident and bloody beautiful for your day!
Beauty treatments
I also work alongside Dan and Victoria at their tranquil sanctuary, The Greenhouse Spa Retreat. They hold the same ethos as me and offer a multitude of spa and pamper treatments to get you and your bridal party ready for your big day. Dan specialises in massage, and Victoria provides facials, waxing, massage and nail services alongside my own lash lift & tints for those who'd like their bridal glow to last that little bit longer.
