Wedding make up - what a babe!
Jo did my wedding make up and I honestly cannot recommend her enough. I was really nervous about it so had a trial a few months before and she was able to recreate exactly what I wanted, making sure I still looked natural and the best version of myself. On the day itself she also had my mum’s and bridesmaid’s make up to do but she was cool as a cucumber and really reassuring to have around on the most stressful day of your life!! Thank you so much x

Jo is incredible!
Jo is a wonderful MUA and hair stylist who takes into consideration all of your likes and preferences. She was very responsive when booking my wedding in June 2025 as well as the trials too.
She is a very calm and supportive person who kept the ‘getting ready vibe’ just right for my big day.
She is a true perfectionist and took her time getting everything just so.
I have never felt so beautiful as Jo made me feel on my wedding day. I had so much compliments on how natural and dewy my make up looked.
I also loved my lashes, they looked very natural and even lasted into my honeymoon the next week!
I can’t recommend Jo enough, just book her now before it’s too late!

Jo made me feel like the best version of myself
Jo was absolutely incredible. I loved her natural, glowy style — it was exactly what I wanted — and she made me feel like the best version of myself. She was so communicative and kind throughout, with such a calming energy on the day (which was invaluable!). Jo and her team worked tirelessly to make sure all my bridesmaids looked gorgeous, and they honestly did — people were still talking about how much they loved their hair and makeup weeks afterwards. We are so grateful. A huge thank you, Jo — and if you’re considering booking her, HIRE HER!

Wedding day make up for bride and friends
Jo was fabulous, we discussed what sort of look I want for the wedding day in the trial, she was able to give me ideas and suggestions to nail the look to exactly what I had in mind. I am Indian origin, I was a bit sceptical when I was choosing a makeup artist, but Jo put me at ease, her makeup kit is vast and suits all skin colours, she knew exactly what foundation and contouring products will suit me, she also did a great job with my thick and dense Indian hair. The makeup stayed on well throughout the wedding day.

Amazing makeup artist!
Jo did my makeup for my wedding in September last year and I can honestly say she did the most amazing job!! I was so happy with the final look, it was just what I wanted. Jo really listened to my wishes all the way along and was more than happy to make any changes I requested. Jo also did my nieces makeup and they were honestly so happy. She kept the look really natural and it was perfect for their ages. Would highly recommend her!

wedding 8/7/23
I just wanted to say a massive thank you for doing mine and my wedding parties make up on the 8th July. We had an absolutely fantastic day from start to finish! I loved how my make up looked and loved the whole getting ready experience. Will recommend you highly whenever I get the chance.

Soothing and Calming
Joanne was a lovely calming presence to have on the morning of the wedding, she has a light touch and listened to what I wanted at my trial. I felt beautiful all day and she also provided a small sample of the lipstick to keep me looking fresh throughout the day.
