Most beautiful I’ve ever felt!

Gemma is a true professional: prompt, relaxed and friendly, brings out the best of everyone’s natural beauty, listens to what you want, she’s so calming when you’re nervous and I’ve never felt so beautiful as when she’s done my makeup and hair.

Highly recommend - such a pleasure to have Gemma part of our big day!

I can't recommend Gemma highly enough as your hair and make up artist for the big day. The trial was really helpful and we made some small tweaks on the day, having chatted via email first sharing some pictures etc. so that I felt 100% comfortable and 'me'.
Not only is she incredibly talented (her light touch, natural skin coverage was exceptional) but she's also such a great person to spend time with the morning of. Nothing is too much. Gemma was calm, responsive and always prompt. I got married in Richmond in London; went for a taupy eye make up and a low bun (which she made work even with my short hair!) and my maid of honour had a beautiful up-do, high ponytail.
Great value for money compared to some quotes I received!
Huge thanks, Gemma.

Bridal make up & hairs

Gemma did a glowy, natural look to me and my two bridesmaid. She's been kind, funny, she understood completely what i wanted.
She's your MUA!

Best bridal experience with Gemma

A big big thank you to the really lovely Gemma who made me feel amazing on my wedding day! I absolutely loved my hair and makeup and so did my bridesmaids and my mum. My hair and makeup lasted all day and night. Gemma listened to everything we asked for and also provided expertise when we were undecided on what to go for. Gemma is really talented and also a great calming influence - just what you want on your wedding morning! I felt at ease right from our first meeting and knew I was in good hands. Thank you so much :) xxx

Gemma is incredible! Couldn't recommend her more highly

I have recommended Gemma to friends because I think she is as good as it gets. I contacted lots of different suppliers as Gemma was easily the best option - she is really easy to be around, incredibly gifted, and she understands what you want even if you find it hard to put into words. She made me feel so comfortable even as someone who doesn't often do their hair and makeup properly and even at the end of my wedding day I still felt I looked my best. Thank you Gemma!

Wedding make up

Gemma did wedding make up for myself and my bridesmaids and everything was amazing. We all loved our make-up and Gemma was so lovely and calming on the day, especially when the nerves started to kick in!

She is just amazing!

Gemma was amazing! She was really patient with me, trying out different looks until we found the perfect one. She was brilliant on the day and fit right in with all the bridesmaids, it was like having another friend there! I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a professional makeup artist for special events!
