Thank you Claire for your talent in making me look and feel like a million dollars. You and Liz were amazing and reassuring on the morning of the wedding and thank you for the lovely moments you captured via video and photos. Would highly recommend your services.

Wedding Makeup

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I cannot thank Claire enough! She did wedding makeup for me, 4 bridesmaids and the MoB. She put us all at ease and made the experience so fun and her informal photos of the process added to the experience! The quality of the makeup was incredible! I cannot recommend Claire enough!

Bridal trial- Completed!

I very rarely wear makeup having spent my life in tonnes of it for shows and plays and I am so happy with my bridal trial! We collaborated, shared ideas and came up with the perfect look, I can't wait to see my actual make up on the day! Nothing Was too much trouble and any changes were welcomed and explained as needed!

Makeup trial - brilliant and kind!

I had such a brilliant time at my trial - I'd booked quite last minute and was thrilled with how kind, receptive and reasonable the artist was. Strongly recommend!

Simply Perfect

Claire was so professional, friendly and kind-hearted. We sat and discussed what kind of look I wanted beforehand which immediately put me at ease. She was very knowledgeable, explaining what products she was using and the benefits to them, and checking how I felt after each step of the process. It was like having a chat with a lifelong friend rather than a make-up trial. 100% would recommend her to everyone.

Complete professional from enquiry to make up session

I found Claire via a local Facebook post and contacted her regarding a makeup session in 5 days time. Claire was responsive to my message and I spoke to her via telephone too. On the day Claire put me at ease, she listened to what I wanted and made the experience truly wonderful. I adored my make up and got so many compliments throughout the day. She really is such a talented lady and i will be booking in with Claire again. Thank you for making me feel fabulous.

Claire is a Wonder Woman!

I got married on the 20th of July so I’m really late at least this review. Sorry Claire!

You were and are wonderful. You brought a sense of calmness over me when I was already worried about wearing to much makeup. You are professional and knowledgeable and you have amazing patience, especially when you came back to let me try different lipsticks!

I felt amazing on the day, you listened to what I needed and provided that. You were flexible with my change of location, you were on time, and even let me sister speak to you about different foundations.

I cannot say a negative thing about you and I am SO SO pleased I chose you for my special day.

Thank you again!

Couldn't have wished for a better makeup artist!

Claire is such a lovely lady! I felt comfortable in her company straight away and really enjoyed spending time with her. She took on board everything I said I do and don't like and had my makeup looking perfect and how I wanted, first time. She helped put my nerves at ease during my trial, and I know she'll be a great help when I'm freaking out on my big day! I could not have chosen a better makeup artist!
