Felt like a beauty queen

Victoria really got to know me and how I wanted to feel and look on my wedding and we worked together to make sure I got the look for the pictures. She was enthusiastic and clearly passionate about her work. My make up was amazing and I felt so confident all throughout the day

Absolute perfection

I knew I wanted to book Victoria for my wedding right from the start having seen her incredible work and reviews online. My make up trial earlier in the year was a real treat and I felt like I was sitting chatting with a friend, having loads of fun trying incredible make up products. I don't usually wear a lot of make up and so Victoria was able to adapt for a more natural style that I felt still looked like me. On the day, Victoria kept me calm and relaxed. It's a cliche but I felt like a million dollars. My make up lasted all day and she recommended a couple of products to have in my bag as a top up. Being a Covid 2020 Bride I have already booked Victoria again for our Wedding Party Part 2 this year. Anyone lucky enough to book Victoria will not be disappointed.

Beautiful Make - up

Victoria gave myself, my mum and my bridesmaids the gorgeous natural look we wanted. My make up lasted all day and loved it so much. She was amazing to work with and was such a great addition to the morning

Highly Recommend!

I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've ever worn make-up so I did find the prospect of getting fully 'done up' for my wedding a little daunting. After contacting Victoria, I explained that I wanted to look like myself - with freckles on show as much as possible- just more alive and awake looking.

During my trial, Victoria created a look that was perfect for me and made sure I was happy with it before I left. On the day Victoria was extremely professional, even when faced with an awkward workspace and the chaos of 5 bridesmaids. Aside from a Mascara and Lipstick touch-up just before the evening do, everything stayed in place- no mean feat when the ceremony was at 11am!

I would highly recommend Victoria to any Bride looking for a make-up artist.

Thank you Victoria!

Choosing Victoria to do our makeup was one of the best decisions we made in our whole wedding! In what’s been a very strange year she remained professional, flexible and extremely supportive throughout the whole process. I absolutely loved the make up Victoria did for me at the trial and it was a really relaxing and fun experience, and the fact that Victoria was so ‘on it’ and organised in the lead up to the wedding day was really reassuring, especially with the new COVID safe procedures. It was so lovely to have Victoria’s calming and friendly presence there on the morning of the wedding day and we were all completely blown away by her make up skills. Everyone looked fantastic! I would highly recommend to anyone considering it to book Victoria for their wedding, you will not regret it! I can’t wait for Victoria to do my makeup again at our ‘sequel wedding’ in December this year.

Beautiful make-up & a wonderful Make-Up Artist!

Victoria is amazing!
Victoria did a stunning job of my make up for my October 2020 wedding! She uses great quality products to create a natural but polished look. I still looked and felt like myself, but a much more glowing and radiant version!!
The make-up trial was very insightful and Victoria went to great lengths to ensure the colouring was right and I was happy with the palette. She introduced me to some lovely products that are now staples in my make-up back!
Victoria also did a marvellous job of my Mum's make up on the wedding day, to the brief of 'Julia Robert's eyes'!
Victoria was a delight to be with the morning of the wedding - a calming presence and a lovely person!
In addition, she was so helpful when I asked for any recommendations of certain suppliers and led me to find a wonderful hair stylist also.
Thank you so much, Victoria! I will be recommending her to everyone!

Wow - Dream wedding day make up

Wow where do i start. Wedding day make up was something i was a little anxious about as in the past i have had thick foundation applied and gone oily throughout the day. I wear no foundation daily but knew it was needed for the wedding photos. I longed for a natural base and romantic look with a little more emphasis on the eyes. Finding the right makeup artist for me was as important as the dress.

And then i found her!
Victoria Abbosh is a very special make up artist. She was extremely welcoming calming really listened to me and understood me. She is a perfectionist and dearly wants you to look your best.

During my make up trails Victoria also educated me on new ranges of make up/ moisturisers that she was using, since then i have purchased many items for my own personal use and am ever grateful for having my eyes opened to such wonderful products.

On the day Victoria produced the most wonderful wedding make up. She worked her way through 3 bridesmaids,mother of the bride and myself. I seriously didn't believe that my make up would last all day due to past experiences and i had all my purchases at hand but i was turely amazed all i did was touch up with powder twice in the day and considering it was a boiling hot summers day i could not believe how beautiful my make up stayed all day.

I can not recommend Victoria enough she really is an angel. Her whole presence calm nature and professionalism and unequivocal. Victoria is very passionate about making you look special and i could not have wished for my make up to look more beautiful. Thank you Victoria from the bottom of my heart xx

Incredible!

The make-up Victoria did for the whole bridal party was incredible! We got so many compliments on how natural and beautiful the make-up was. She made the whole process - from the trial, to the day of the wedding an absolute pleasure. I can't express how grateful I am for everything that Victoria did - thank you so much

The make up looked beautiful and lasted really well

Victoria did my make up, and make up for my bridesmaids and mum, on my wedding day. The make up looked beautiful, and lasted really well throughout the day, despite it being a super hot day.

Victoria did a great job at a “natural look” style which is exactly what we were after. She also has a great eye for colour, and did things like picking make up colours to emphasise the eye colours of the bridesmaids and based on the colour of their dresses.

I would thoroughly recommend Victoria. It was a pleasure working with her, she always made us feel relaxed and was so friendly.

She was also really helpful in the run up to the wedding, recommending different products to me when I had questions. The make up trial at her house was also lovely and fun! Thank you Victoria!

Very happy I hired Victoria!

I hired Victoria to do makeup for myself and my bridesmaids on my wedding day and I'm very happy I did! I hadn't had my makeup done professionally before and Victoria was very patient with me in working to find a look that I was comfortable with. My makeup lasted the whole day and I felt far less self conscious about having cameras pointed at me all day than I normally would be.

I knew I could trust Victoria 100%

I was lucky enough to have Victoria do my bridal make up on my big day in February 2019. I knew after our trial that I could trust Victoria 100%. I knew I wanted something fairly natural and Victoria was able to advise me and put me totally at ease as somebody that doesn't know a lot about make up. Victoria recommended some pre-wedding routines to prepare my skin and was so easy going and relaxed on the day despite having several people to make up. The make up lasted the entire day and I received several comments about how fresh I looked. I would not hesitate to use Victoria again if I were ever in her local area again

I cannot thank Victoria enough.

Right from the start, you were incredibly easy to work with and totally on board with my vision of how my bride tribe and I would look and feel. I could not have asked for a more knowledgeable, helpful and easy-going make-up artist to help me and my favourite women look and feel as fantastic as we did! We were all just so pleased with the way that you did our make-up - it was so in tune with each of our individual needs and styles. This was particularly important to me as neither myself nor my bridesmaids are avid wearers of make-up and it was a huge worry prior to the day. I needed have thought twice about it though as you effortlessly put us all at ease, used lightweight, comfortable products and still gave us all a glow that has been captured beautifully in the photos. So many people complimented us on how natural your make up was, and I was so enamoured with mine that I have gone and bought some of your recommended products so that I can try to recreate just a little of what you gave me on the day. It all went so smoothly too, from my first online enquiry with you, to my trial and the day itself, there wasn't a single hiccup which meant that I was stress free and able to relax and enjoy everything. I cannot thank you enough.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Victoria to any bride!

From the moment I met Victoria for my make up trial I knew she was the make up artist for me. She understood exactly the understated look I wanted for my wedding day, so I knew I was in safe hands and would look not only like a bride on the day- but most importantly still like me. On the day it was a pleasure to have Victoria there whilst we were getting ready, she made everyone feel at ease and quickly became part of the group. In addition, despite not meeting my bridesmaids before the day Victoria was quickly able to ascertain there make up likes and dislikes whilst keeping an overall thread running through the looks created.

My Mum, Mother in Law, Bridesmaids and I were all delighted with our make up for the day and it had such staying power with minimal touch ups required meaning we could party the day away with no make up worries. Overall I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Victoria to any bride!
