Thank you Julie for doing mine and my bridesmaids’s make up. Everyone looked amazing.

Felt So Beautiful

Julie did my makeup for my wedding in 2024 as well as my bridesmaids. I felt really beautiful. Julie did a look that transitioned beautifully to the evening and was there on the day in plenty of time to get us all ready. The trial was done at my house which made it very easy for me to make the time to have this done and Julie made any tweaks I needed.

Julie Made My Wedding Day Perfect!

Julie was absolutely incredible on my wedding day! From the moment I first got in touch, she was professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. She really listened to what I wanted and offered great advice. On the day itself, everything ran so smoothly thanks to her. I felt completely relaxed and confident knowing she had everything under control. I can't recommend her highly enough – thank you Julie for making my wedding so special!"

Wedding mua

I booked Julie for my wedding make up artist after many recommendations. I was not disappointed!

Julie initially asked me to collect pictures of the styles and type of make up look I liked ahead of my make up trial- really good idea!
Julie also gathered more info about the style of wedding I was having that helped narrow down (with her wealth of experience) a couple of options for me and also my mum.

On the day Julie arrived in good time together with her box of tricks that meant my makeup didn’t shift all day! She also gave me a bit of lipstick to top up my colour as the day went on.
Helpful tip she shared was whilst I wanted a natural look there had to be enough colour for me not to look washed out in the photos (photos apparently drain your colour - who knew!)

Very competitively priced-you get what you pay for!

If you want to look a million dollars Julie has all the smoke and mirrors and tricks to make that happen!

Super professional and above all friendly.

Wedding Make-Up

Julie was a real find.
She was very understanding at the make-up trial and produced just what the bride wanted (a subtle and flattering finish which created impact but she still looked like herself). Julie was happy to do a few tweaks when asked as well.
On the wedding morning, we had a very tight schedule and there were 5 of us for make-up, each with our own requirements and preferences. We were all happy with the results and all happened according to the timetable.
As mother of the bride and someone who usually wears very little make-up, I was pleased with the subtle yet effective result.
The bridesmaids preferred more of an impact with their make-up and were also happy.
Julie fitted in so well that it felt like she was part of things without being in the way. We were all at ease and chatting while make-up was done.
Julie is a lovely lady and the service we received was just right.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
