Can’t recommend Liv enough!

I can’t thank Liv enough for making me and my bridesmaids look and feel amazing on my wedding day! She was so professional and knowledgeable but also so friendly!
I had a trial before my wedding which lead to us making a few changes which I felt so comfortable discussing with Liv, to get the exact look I wanted for my day which I think is so important!
All 7 of us were so happy with our make up! It lasted all day and evening! One of my bridesmaids has already booked Liv for her own wedding next year and I can’t wait for her to do my make up again then!
The absolute best. I can’t recommend her enough! ✨

The real star of my wedding morning ❤️❤️❤️

Having followed livs work for many years and had make up done before I absolutely knew it was her I wanted to do my face on my special day. I actually checked what dates she was free before I booked my venue 😅 I honestly couldn’t recommend her more. She’s patient, kind, very calm and most importantly so so talented! Nothing was too much trouble, a few of my bridal party who haven’t had their make up done before were blown away by how they looked after the make up & I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day, how every bride should feel and liv truly was a key part in that, I’ll always be so thankful that she was a part of my special day.

If you want a make up artist who feels like a friend and is insanely talented then look no further she is her! ❤️

Mua of dreams!

Liv was my chosen MUA for my wedding day in July 2024.

From initial messages, to wedding trials, to the day itself - Liv was just amazing from start to finish.

Liv was able to cater for a complete array of make-up preferences from full glam to a natural barely-there finish. Although taking so much pride in her work and being so knowledgeable in her field, she made it look completely effortless on the wedding day! To manage 6 women’s wedding make-up, whilst being great company and barely breaking a sweat is sheer talent - this kept us all calm and it really felt like Liv was one of the girl gang!

I really could not fault Liv other than the fact that she can’t be on hand for my glam every day!

As a bride I felt absolutely flawless and a huge part of that was due to Liv’s unbelievable work.

The best of the best ❤️

Absolutely perfect!

Liv is an extremely talented make up artist!
As the mother of the bride, I can whole heartedly recommend her!
From the make up trial through to the “Big Day” Liv was very professional and asked and answered all questions about our skin tones, what we wanted, to any allergies we may have etc etc …….
I absolutely LOVED my make up and it stayed in place ALL day! ( loved the individual lashes she used…. Best thing ever! )
Liv is not only very talented at her job but is so lovely inside and out. She brings with her a calm approach and you can see how much she loves her job and wants you to be really happy with the end result.
I can personally say, that the whole bridal party looked absolutely beautiful…….my daughter looked absolutely stunning and I cried when I saw how beautiful she looked ( and yes, my make up still stayed in place through the tears! )
I will definitely use Liv again and wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to all my family & friends!
A massive thank you Liv, you truly are the best 🥰 xx

The most perfect makeup for my wedding! :)

I booked a trial with Liv where we tried the makeup look I wanted to go for for my big day but on my wedding morning I decided I wanted to go a little more coverage and much glowier - Liv just took this on board and did her thing and WOW I was so in love with how the look turned out! I feel like our trial was the warm up act and then the wedding day was next level and absolutely perfect! I’m so happy with how the total look turned out and it didn’t budge all day! I had so many people commenting late in to the evening of how our together I still looked even after hours of sweating in the sun for pics and dancing in to the evening 😄 whatever magic Liv used I can’t thank her enough, I wouldn’t have changed a thing and she is the kindest soul and just fitted in with the bridal party getting ready. Thanks again! ❤️❤️❤️

Perfect make up for our perfect day!

Liv made me feel like the most beautiful princess ever from the first time we spoke, through trials and even more so on our wedding day! Along with Chlo, she did such a fantastic job with all of my girls, mum and I and we just adored having her there to be a part of it all on the day. All future brides are so incredibly lucky and we would highly recommend! Thanks so much x

Wow wow wow 🤍

I am so happy I booked Liv to my bridal makeup for my June 2024 wedding, plus makeup for my mum and two bridesmaids.

From start to finish Liv was so amazing. She is incredibly talented and professional, and she takes time to listen to your likes and any tweaks/changes you want. She made me feel like an absolute goddess ✨✨ on my wedding day and my skin looked the best it has ever looked, and my bridesmaids looked INSANE.

The best thing about Liv though is how she was with my mum. My mum was really nervous and never wears much makeup, but Liv made her feel so comfortable with the process and my mum was over the moon with her makeup 🥹

Liv, thank you so so much. You are so talented and I would recommend you to ANYBODY looking for bridal makeup in a heartbeat 🤍👰🏼‍♀️

The best MUA ever!

Let’s start by saying Liv was amazing! I cannot recommend her enough, she did my make up for our wedding day and it was perfect! Everyone loved it, and complimented me so much on the day. Liv is so lovely, and we shared a personal moment just us in the bridal suite whilst she started my make up and I’ll cherish those moments forever! Liv also did a couple of the bridesmaids and my Mum who all looked beautiful.

Beautiful flawless make up

I don't even know where to begin but I can't thank Liv enough for everything she did for my wedding morning and the amazing make up I had along with my 4 bridesmaids and my mum. Liv is fantastic at what she does. She has so much patience and is so easy to talk to which I think goes a long way. We had an early start on the day but she arrived early which I just loved. She took some getting ready videos and pictures too which has really helped me jog my memory of the morning as it seems like a blur now. If you're local to Maldon, Witham or Chelmsford I would strongly recommend Liv. She's great at what she does.

The best ✨

Liv was absolutely amazing. Not only was she so professional and knowledgable, she was so friendly and understanding of the look that I wanted.
She was so much more than a makeup artist, she felt like a friend and just went above and beyond with way more than just our makeup.
Couldn’t recommend her highly enough! Can’t wait for future events that she can paint my face for all over again!

The queen of make up artists 💞

Liv made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! (and my engagement party too). Not only is she super talented, but she listens your ideas and takes it all on board. Liv was able to cater for lots of different make up styles for my wedding party. From a full bridal look, a lighter, more subtle look, and also my lovely mum, who was so nervous to have her make up done, but cried with joy when saw what Liv had done for her!
I always, always recommend Liv to my friends, she is just amazing. If you're looking for a kind, calm, talented and reliable make up artist for your special day... Look no further! ❤️💕

Beautiful flawless make up ❤️❤️

Liv is the rarity amongst beauty professionals in that she actually LISTENS. She will work with you to pick the right colours and finish to give you a beautiful make-up perfect for your occasion. It doesn’t look inches deep! It really looks sleek, natural and the exact colours you asked for. She can make up any age to look amazing and is also BRILLIANT at the more mature ladies ensuring we look glamorous and not “Mutton dressed as lamb!” She is equally skilled for the younger faces and I have seen many of her stunning looks created on my daughter and her friends. Just glamorous but not plastered on!! Wedding make up is just incredible too, so so beautifully natural.

Cannot recommend her highly enough. She’s 5* and practically a magician!! ❤️❤️❤️

An amazing make up artist and all round beautiful person!

Liv is a beautiful, amazing girl who helped so much on our big day! She didn’t just do our make up, she helped with smaller touches like drying our bouquets ready for us without us even asking. She was so laid back, friendly and listened to all the girls with what they wanted. The girls were absolutely delighted with their make up and they looked beyond beautiful. Their make up stayed on all night through sweat and tears! Booking liv would be the best thing you did for your big day. Thanks again lovely lady xxxx
