Professional, attention to detail, strives for perfection
Gemma has an amazing eye for detail and offers the best service and advice. She done myself (Bride), Mother of Bride and 3 Bridesmaids. She is quick but not at all rushed of “cut corner”. She made us all feel entirely at ease and listened to what I wanted the final outcome to be. She uses the best quality makeup from prep to final touches. I have since used Gemma for other occasions and receive such lovely compliments.

Perfect! 1,000% recommend
Gemma done my makeup (the bride), mother of the bride, 2 bridesmaids and 2 flower girls to say she’s amazing at her job is an understatement, Gemma made me feel like a complete princess & eased my nerves on my big day and I cannot thank her enough, she is extremely professional and stayed with me until I left the room for final touches. Gemma’s Attention to detail is 2nd to none, even putting a little bit of blusher & lip gloss on my flower girls to make them feel involved just made them feel so so special, my make up was flawless and stayed on until the early hours when my big day ended, she’s uses the best quality products, I have used Gemma for other occasions in the past and will continue to do so she’s my go to make up artist
