Aldona is remarkable - Flawless Bridal Makeup

I cannot recommend Aldona highly enough. I chose not to book a trial for my wedding, as her experience, awards, and glowing reviews gave me complete confidence in her. She listened carefully to what I wanted and created a look that felt like the best version of myself. My makeup was flawless, photographed beautifully, and lasted all day and night. Aldona was calm, friendly, funny, and incredibly professional, which made such a difference on the morning of the wedding. I felt amazing — thank you for being such a special part of our day! xx

Amazing bridal makeup!

Aldona was so wonderful, really followed my brief and did the most perfect wedding makeup! She was open to experimenting and listening to what I wanted but also getting me to trust her process. She uses incredible products and charges a really great price for weddings. Highly recommend!

Amazing, make up lasted all day!

My makeup was absolutely stunning and stayed flawless from morning all the way through the night. Whatever magic Aldona works during the skin prep is incredible—I'm not sure exactly what she does, but the makeup never budges and always looks smooth, fresh, and perfectly blended.

Aldona herself is an absolute pleasure to work with. She’s consistently punctual, incredibly kind, and refreshingly honest about what will complement your features. Her professional eye and gentle approach make the whole experience feel relaxed and enjoyable. I always leave feeling confident, beautiful, and completely taken care of.

Birthday party

I had such a great experience! She listened to exactly what I wanted and created the perfect look for my event. My makeup was soft, glowy, and stayed put the whole evening. I’ll definitely book again.

Highly Recommend Aldona

Aldona is amazing at what she does, she’s so knowledgeable and experienced and pays incredible attention to detail. Wouldn’t consider going anywhere else.
Not only does she have so much knowledge in make up, she has educated me in respect of my skin care regime and the products I need to use, she’s always so willing to help and advise, I wouldn’t consider going anywhere else.
She is very reasonably priced and professional in the work she does.

Aldona is fab, great communication and very accommodating. I asked for a natural look for a wedding, it was exactly the look I wanted. I have since used Aldona for several special occasions and have never been disappointed.

The best there is!

Aldona was simply amazing on our wedding day. She was on time (actually early!), had 7 of us to get ready and got us all finished with time to spare for touch ups before leaving! Whilst also having a laugh and being involved with the atmosphere.

Couldn't have asked for more from her, and she is also such a lovely and warm person who made us all feel such at ease! (Even those who don't normally wear makeup!). Would 100% book her again, 1000 times over and would recommend, and have done, to anyone looking for a make up artist! Amazing!!!

The best in the business

Aldona is due to do me and my bridesmaids next year for my wedding, during the trail process she made me feel extremely comfortable, (I get really nervous when someone else is doing my makeup as I trained in the field myself so initially planned to do my own) however she exceeded all of my expectations, I’ve never felt more beautiful. Her product range is absolutely incredible and I felt like she really listened to what I do and don’t like and created a look that’s absolutely perfect for the big day! This part of the wedding was a big deal for me, as a bride you always want to look your best on the day, i feel completely as ease going into the real thing next year knowing I have aldona by my side. The skill and professionalism this lady has is unbelievable and I will continue to recommend her to anyone I know needing bridal makeup for the future. Also thankyou for being my wedding therapist throughout my trail makeup, you made me forget about all the stressful things I had to plan and made me laugh so much. Roll on next year!
