    Dream make-up

    I chose Gemma based on recommendations from friends who loved their wedding make-up, and I am so glad I did! Gemma was so friendly and professional from the first contact, she made the entire process so straightforward and stress-free. I loved how knowledgable she was and I discovered new products which I use to this day. I adored my final wedding look and loved how Gemma went above and beyond to make sure the preparation generally went smoothly. I would 100% recommend Gemma!

    Couldn’t recommend highly enough

    I loved having Gemma for my make up artist during my wedding day, she exceeded my expectations! From the moment we met, she made me feel comfortable and at ease. She truly listened to all details of my vision for my bridal look.

    On the day of the wedding, she created a flawless, look that made me feel like the best version of myself including a few tweaks of colour from our trial day. The makeup stayed perfect all day and night including through tears! She was ahead of schedule but not rushing and at the end gave us all an individual touch up (6 people in total)! Also constantly checking on me for needing food/water and calming me down when having a few moments which shows how caring she is as a professional.

    I received countless compliments from my friends and family on how natural yet stunning my makeup was. I can’t recommend Gemma highly enough!

    Oh Amanda!! This got me emotional and is just the sweetest review! You really were a dream from enquiry to wedding day - I still look back at our glam now and love it!! Thank you so much as this means the world to me. Best morning with you all xx

    The best makeup artist!!

    Couldn’t have wished for a better make up artist! Nothing was too much trouble.

    Gemma is extremely responsive, organised & great at her job.

    More than a Makeup Artist

    Gemma was absolutely fantastic! I knew from the moment I saw her makeup style, she was what I was looking for on my wedding day. On the day, it was like having another friend there, helping me get ready. Gemma was more than just a hair stylist - she was an emotional support, found me some food when I forgot to eat in the morning, helped me put shoes and jewellery on, and just went over and above what I expected. My makeup was FLAWLESS all day with no touch-ups needed, which was a miracle! Gemma made the day so much easier and I couldn't have asked for anyone better - thank you so much!!

    GemMakeup's reply:

    Oh Laura!! Thank you SO much for just the sweetest feedback! This makes me so happy and you were just an absolute dream from enquiry to wedding day. I wish we could do it all over again - you looked SO beautiful too!! xx

    Outstanding!

    I had the pleasure of Gemma for a trial and my wedding day. She was so relaxing, calm and trusting. She made me and my bridesmaids feel at ease on the day and feel beautiful. She really knows about skin and make up and what works with each individual person. I feel like she’s so calm on the day which is what you need on your wedding day, it’s like having a facial before your wedding!. I would 100% recommend Gemma for make up especially your wedding day if you want someone who is reliable, honest and friendly who will make you feel like a million dollars 💕🙏.

    Thank you!

    still looking for a makeup artist? Gemma is your woman!

    Gemma did both my makeup trial and my bridal makeup. I’m not a massive makeup person so I was anxious for this to be done but as soon as I met Gemma she made me feel so at ease. I was instantly impressed as soon as I had my trial and did exactly what I asked for and more! My wedding day Gemma made me feel like a princess and so calm and collected. Thank you Gemma for everything 🤍

    Aww thank you so much Chloe!! Your kind words mean so much to me - It was an absolute pleasure glamming and meeting you all! What a fun wedding morning and the loveliest group of girlies ever!! xxx

    Just the best!

    Gem was amazing from start to finish. She was so understanding of my specific needs and worries about reactions to products. I needed products with little or no scent and she did great, she knows her products inside out and selected the perfect ones for me. My trial was wonderful and I really enjoyed chatting away with her throughout. On my wedding day she made me feel so beautiful, I couldn’t have wished for a better makeup artist. My bridesmaids looked fantastic and she made my daughter so happy giving her little sparkly eyes, little touches that mean the world. So very happy with her wonderful work.

    Oh Alice!! Thank you SO much for the loveliest review - this means so much to me!! I enjoyed every minute from getting to know you on your trial and glamming you all on your wedding day! 🩷🩷 Thank you my lovely xx

    Absolutely amazing!

    Gemma was truly one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. Her makeup skills are phenomenal and flawless but she’s also a fantastic person to have around you on the morning of the wedding. She’s kind and patient, professional and friendly and nothing is too much hassle for her, she goes above and beyond for you and makes you feel like a princess the whole time. My bridal trial and wedding day makeup was perfect and lasted all night. Gemma is absolutely fantastic at what she does!

    GemMakeup's reply:
