Bridal trial- Completed!

I very rarely wear makeup having spent my life in tonnes of it for shows and plays and I am so happy with my bridal trial! We collaborated, shared ideas and came up with the perfect look, I can't wait to see my actual make up on the day! Nothing Was too much trouble and any changes were welcomed and explained as needed!

Claire is a Wonder Woman!

I got married on the 20th of July so I’m really late at least this review. Sorry Claire!

You were and are wonderful. You brought a sense of calmness over me when I was already worried about wearing to much makeup. You are professional and knowledgeable and you have amazing patience, especially when you came back to let me try different lipsticks!

I felt amazing on the day, you listened to what I needed and provided that. You were flexible with my change of location, you were on time, and even let me sister speak to you about different foundations.

I cannot say a negative thing about you and I am SO SO pleased I chose you for my special day.

Thank you again!

Excellent Personal service

I booked Claire for a make up trail for my maids, mum and myself, for which Claire kept me fully informed of her arrival and when she came to my house, her expert advice was warmly excepted and she did a fantastic job. On the day of my wedding, Claire arrived at our hotel and immediately made us all feel relaxed with her professional approach and expertise. Her advice was warmly excepted by all. As any bride would know that on the day my stress levels were very heightened and Claire did her upmost and succeeded in keeping me calm and relaxed throughout.

Absolutely wonderful

Claire was absolutely amazing on the day of my wedding getting 7 of us ready. Claire is the most friendliest person you'll meet and she makes you feel so comfortable. Claire made all our experiences of having our make-up done fantastic and we all felt amazing after.
Thank you Claire, you gave us a wonderful experience. I highly recommend Claire.

A thoroughly relaxing experience l!

Claire was fantastic to work with, so calm, unflappable and friendly.
Her communication is excellent, we never had to wait very long for a reply to any queries we had along the way,
Her selection of makeup is phenomenal!
She was led by our wishes, never tried to force a look on us but gave excellent guidance if needed.
After the trial makeover we had a couple of last minute changes but she’s so flexible in her approach, nothing was too much trouble!
On the day she was prompt and the 5 of us were wedding ready in good time but it wasn’t rushed at all - .She made it such a relaxing experience.
2 of our party had Rosacea but with Claire’s products and skills, you would never have known.
Whilst applying the makeup she took before and after photos for each person and forwarded them on for us all to keep as memories of that part of the day.

Thank you for everything Claire and for being part of Hannah’s big day!

Calm in any storm

Claire was an absolute gem. Not only did she do two trials to make sure I was 110% happy, she also kept in contact in the run up to the big day, just checking in and making sure I was OK. Claire understands that a wedding day is a special dream and she made sure it was all a dream come true. I didn't have a chief bridesmaid or any adult bridesmaids but I really didn't need any, with Claire by my side. I really enjoyed the morning of my wedding, I felt like I was just having fun with my friends and ta da, I felt and looked stunning. If you are considering Claire, book book book!!!
