About

** 2024 diary is now closed! **


Jess Pacey is a bridal makeup and beauty specialist based in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, offering services for weddings and other milestone events.

In 2013 Jess qualified as a beauty therapist and, through the summer, enrolled at Bath Academy of Media Makeup, where she was taught by numerous renowned makeup artists on the fashion, bridal and beauty makeup course. It was here her passion for creating bespoke bridal makeup flourished.

Jess's style is very natural, she loves to meet brides-to-be who never wear any makeup or very minimal on a day-to-day basis and amaze them with what makeup can do and how it can define and highlight their natural features. Yet, working with other makeup artists early in her career, she soon understood that makeup is also very significant to every individual and can show off their personality. So whether it is working to create a flawless base, adding a little shimmer and sparkle to the eyes, or going all out with a glamorous winged eyeliner and a red lip, Jess loves to know she has helped someone feel a more beautiful version of themselves, for one of the most special days of their lives.

As well as a love for makeup, Jess is highly passionate about the beauty industry, especially skincare products! She truly believes a good skincare routine creates the perfect base for makeup. Jess is always trying out and researching new products and kit, as well as offering advice and recommending products and regimes to her clients, which she believes will enhance their complexion and everyday routines.

Over the past ten years, most of her brides have got married in Scarborough and the surrounding areas.

She regularly visits Hackness Grange, Ox Pasture Hall, Raven Hall, and Sneaton Castle, as well as being a recommended supplier of Sandburn Hall.

Highly recommend

Communication with Jess from start to finish was excellent. Unfortunately due to poor health, my skin is very temperamental, which I was very concerned about. Jess was so caring and recommended me some products, which have been amazing. She made myself and my bridesmaids so comfortable and made us look and feel incredible all day! Would highly recommend to any future brides!

The best of the best!

I had followed Jess for a while on Instagram and I knew if I was to get married she would be the one who would do my makeup, so when I booked my wedding she was one of the first people I booked!

At my trial Jess asked about my skin type and what type of look I was wanting and the final look even at the trial was great. I was a little unsure about the lipstick once I got home and some aspects of my skincare and Jess was great at giving me suggestions.

On the day, Jess arrived on time despite the venue being around a 1 hour travel from Scarborough. She was absolutely amazing and tailored each bridesmaids makeup to what they wanted as each bridesmaids wanted something a little different and they all commented how well their makeup lasted. Even my Mum who doesn’t wear a lot of make up commented how ‘incredible’ her makeup looked. My make up looked amazing, and lasted all need even through a few tears and a lot of dancing!!

Jess worked really well with the girl doing my hair and everyone got finished where there was no mad rush at the end to get into our dresses, where Jess was more than happy to stay until we left to give us some finishing touches once we were ready.

Professional and friendly!

I booked Jess to do my wedding make-up in October 2019. Unfortunately due to the Pandemic we had to postpone our wedding until July 2021 but Jess was very flexible when we moved to our new date. She put so much care and attention into my make-up and my three bridesmaids. The make-up stayed in place all day and I had lots of compliments!

Friendly, very talented makeup professional

Jess was friendly, professional and listened to what I wanted, was happily willing to change anything I wasn't keen on (not being used to wearing makeup) and everyone commented on how my makeup made my eyes look so blue. She made me look and feel beautiful. Can't thank her enough and would recommend her to anyone wanting their makeup done for any special occasion. She's very talented.

Incredible!

Jess was so supportive and so attentive through the whole process. She listened carefully to what I wanted and crafted a gorgeous look for me. I felt so beautiful! She paid close attention to colours and undertones and really made everyone in the party glow.
I had a last minute issue and asked if there was any way she could do a larger party. While she was unable to do all of us herself, she reached out to the equally wonderful Clare on my behalf; she helped ease my worries and was so incredibly supportive!!
I honestly couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding!!
Do yourself a favour and ask for Jess for your wedding!! She will not disappoint!!
