Meet Aurora

Makeup Artist & Hairstylist based in central London / King's Cross

Hi, I’m Aurora! A French hair and makeup artist based in London. My journey began over 10 years ago at the renowned Make Up Forever Academy, where I built a solid foundation in my craft. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working in some of Europe’s most beautiful destinations, perfecting my signature style—the effortless French touch. I create radiant, timeless, and polished looks that enhance your natural beauty and feel uniquely you!

With experience working for magazines and VIP clients, I’ve mastered the art of blending soft glamour and elegance into every look. Beyond my artistry, I’m known for my calm and organised approach, making sure your wedding day is as smooth and stress-free as possible. I genuinely treasure the personal connections I build with my brides, and it’s a joy to be part of your special day, ensuring you feel confident, beautiful, and truly looked after.

What do you love about doing weddings?

What I love most about doing weddings is the opportunity to be part of such a meaningful and special day. Having been a bride myself, I truly understand how important it is to feel your most beautiful and confident as you step into one of the biggest moments of your life. Knowing every detail has been thoughtfully considered, there’s something magical about helping a bride feel radiant and at ease.

I also love building personal connections with my clients, understanding their vision, and creating a look that reflects their personality and style. It’s rewarding to contribute to those unforgettable memories and ensure that every bride feels her best on her special day.

What’s one of your career highlights?

One of my career highlights has been the opportunity to work with brides across Europe in some of the most breathtaking locations. From the prestigious Villa d'Este in Lake Como to the charm of the French Riviera, the elegance of Paris, and even the magical desert landscapes of Morocco, each experience has been unique and unforgettable. Helping brides feel their most beautiful and confident in such incredible settings is truly what makes my work so rewarding.

What's your top tip for brides-to-be?

My top tip for brides-to-be is to trust your artist’s guidance and follow their instructions—they’re there to help you look and feel your best! Avoid last-minute experiments, like trying new skincare products or treatments, in the days leading up to the wedding, and stick to what works for you to keep your skin and hair at their best. I also recommend taking time for yourself—whether it’s meditating, doing some light exercise, or simply pausing to breathe. These small moments of self-care will help you feel calm, centered, and ready to enjoy every second of your big day.

What must-have products can be found in your kit?

My must-have for brides: Hollywood Filter, foundation, a waterproof mascara (the Volume of Chanel), Hourglass concealer, Laura Mercier powder, Westman Atelier stick contour, Dior Backstage foundation, Charlotte Tilbury lip liner, Giorgio Armani Liquid Highlighter 02, Liquid Lipstick Lip Blur by Charlotte Tilbury, and Nuxe Body oil!

She made me chic & timeless

Aurora was absolutely fantastique. She made sure every little detail was perfect, and I felt completely relaxed from the moment she started. My hair and makeup turned out so chic and elegant — exactly what I hoped for, but even better.

All my loved ones and family couldn’t stop complimenting me throughout the day. I genuinely felt beautiful and so myself.
Thank you, Aurora, for making me feel amazing on my wedding day!

So Glad I Chose Aurora!!

Aurora was such a pleasure to have on my wedding day. She made everything feel easy and relaxed, with lots of laughs along the way. My hair and makeup looked amazing and lasted all day, but more than that, she made me feel comfortable and confident from start to finish. I’m so glad I chose her.

If you want it even more casual, more emotional, or super short, I can tweak it instantly

So happy with Aurora's work

Aurora did such a great job on my wedding day. She felt like a fifth bridesmaid, so supportive and calm. She did my makeup as the bride, as well as my bridesmaids’, my mum’s and my mother-in-law’s. She even created a schedule for the wedding morning so everyone knew where to be, and everything ran smoothly. Everyone looked beautiful and the makeup lasted all day and night. I would definitely recommend her ❤️

The best choice I made for my Wedding day!!

I can’t thank Aurora enough for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. From the trial to the big day, she was professional, attentive, and such a calming presence. She really listened to what I wanted and gave me me a look that felt like me, only elevated. My hair and makeup lasted all night thought happy tears, dancing, and hugs, and I got so many compliments. Beyond her incredible talent, she was such a joy to have around on such an important (and sometimes stressful!) day. I’m so greatful I had her by my side and would recommend her to any brides in a hearbeat.

Very good job

I’m so glad I had Aurora with me on my wedding day. She did my makeup and my bridesmaids’ and was just the loveliest person to have around on the morning – calm, kind, and super talented.

Our makeup was absolutely beautiful and lasted all day.

My bridesmaids all looked stunning too, and we had such a fun, relaxed time getting ready. I couldn’t recommend her more – she really was such an important part of the day.

She made me feel so beautiful!!

I can’t recommend Aurora enough! From the very beginning, she was warm, professional, and truly listened to what I wanted. On the day of the event, she created a look that made me feel confident and beautiful, while still feeling like me. The makeup lasted perfectly all day and night, even through dancing and a few happy tears!

What really stood out was her calm energy — she made the whole getting-ready process feel relaxed and enjoyable. You can tell she genuinely cares about her work and her clients. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again. Thank you so much for making me feel so special!

A True Artist – Aurora Made Me Feel Like a Queen!

I can’t thank Aurora enough for the incredible work she did on my wedding day. From the moment we met, she made me feel completely at ease. She listened carefully to what I wanted and somehow made it even better than I imagined. The makeup was flawless—soft, elegant, and perfectly suited to my skin tone and features.

She was also a calming presence on a hectic morning, keeping everything on schedule while making the whole experience feel relaxed and special. My bridesmaids and mum were equally thrilled with their looks. Everyone looked stunning, and the makeup held beautifully all day and night.

Aurora is not only insanely talented, but also kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about what she does. I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist!
