My name is Dayna Leigh, I am an experienced Luxury makeup artist based in Colchester, Essex. I have 10+ years makeup experience specialising in Bridal.
​I offer mobile service and will travel to either your home or selected venue within Essex and Suffolk.
My kit is exclusively made up of high end products such as Dior, Charlotte tilbury, Nars & Yves Saint Laurent catering for all ages and skin tones. I feel makeup can make anyone feel more confident within them self. It can cover a simple blemish, an unwanted birth mark, a scar that may be an unhappy memory or a regrettable tattoo.

Thank You for Making us Beautiful!

Dayna was amazing from start to finish. When myself and my bridesmaid went for our trial she really took her time with us, ensuring we were happy with everything and trying out different products, accounting for the areas we felt needed most work and looking after our somewhat troublesome skin.
She is such a lovely, friendly, warm person and put us at ease immediately.
On the day Dayna helped settle any nerves and the morning was so relaxed, fun and ran very smoothly despite a venue change in the middle of it.
Thank you Dayna! I felt very beautiful and very well cared for from our first conversation to when I walked down the aisle, you're the best!!

October 2025 bride

Dayna was absolutely incredible for my wedding day. She immediately put myself and my bridal party at ease and was so professional and responsive in the lead up to the big day. Dayna completely understood the tweaks I wanted to make for the wedding day after my trial appointment (even though I was terrible at explaining it!). My makeup lasted all night and I had compliments from guests well into the early hours. I would go to Dayna again in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a professional, warm and extremely talented makeup artist, then Dayna is for you.

Amazing service from the lovely Dayna!

Dayna Leigh Makeup was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. The trial was fantastic – she offered great advice about products and was clearly very knowledgeable. Communication was excellent throughout, and she was incredibly helpful during those final, getting-ready moments. The makeup looked flawless and lasted all day, with so many compliments from guests. Highly recommend!

Amazing MUA

Dayna was absolutely brilliant in the lead up and on the wedding day.
Dayna’s communication in the lead up was perfect and when it came to the trial I thought I loved it then but on the day somehow it looked even better!
Dayna was the perfect edition to our day and nothing was too much for her. She helped me get into my dress, was there right up until the end with final touch ups and just made the morning so seamless.
Everyone was amazed at Dayna’s eye for detail and just getting it right. My mum has never had her make up done and was so happy with how she looked.
I would honestly recommend Dayna to anyone who is looking for an MUA whether for a wedding or any other event!

The perfect make up artist🤍

Dayna, thank you!
I went with Dayna for my wedding make up after spending hours on instagram, hitched etc! I fell in love with the look she created. At my trial Dayna made me feel at ease and followed my lead and created the exact look I wanted. On the wedding day Dayna was everything you could ask for and more, not only did she do my make up perfectly but she also was there for a chat and a breather every time I needed her. Dayna helped get my dress on, adjusted my jewellery, even fetched the scissors! Honestly nothing was too much and I feel so grateful I chose not just a make up artist but a friend for my wedding day. Not to mention the three bridesmaids and mother of the bride also all LOVED their make up. Would 1 million perfect recommend. Thank you xxxx

Best version of myself

Dayna was kind & helpful from the start & throughout. I had a makeup trial before the wedding and knew I had chosen the right MUA for me. Dayna was very flexible and understanding throughout.
Dayna truly made me look & feel the best version of myself, I couldn’t recommend her enough.
My makeup lasted the full wedding day & was still going strong the next morning! My sister (MOH) was very happy with her makeup & pleased her lashes lasted days after the wedding
Thank you Dayna for being part of the most magical day of my life.
