Fantastic!

Lauren was fantastic!
As someone who doesn't really wear makeup I was really relying on her expertise and she absolutely delivered!
Most of my friends and family will tell you that I really struggle with self confidence so when I told them on my wedding day that I felt beautiful they almost fell over.
Would fully recommend Lauren and would book her again!

We also booked her second business (glitpi), a glitter bar for the evening which was an absolute hit and our guests haven't stopped raving about it.

Outstanding

Lauren was there for me when my original make up supplier pulled out three months before my wedding date. Leaving me to try and find someone last minute. Lauren was so relaxed, supportive and encouraging of what I wanted. She listened and helped build on my ideas of how I wanted my make up at the trail. She was understanding and patient when my eyes kept watering as I don't wear mascara or eye liner. Using different methods to make it work and stay. Coming down to the wedding day, arriving in my room seeing she was organized ready to go was reassuring. She is always calm in nature which anyone needs on their wedding day. Make up stayed on all day, even when crying at the ceremony. Completing both make up for mums who were both a bit nervous as they were worried enough and do not wear a lot of make up. Both would recommend her x1000. Thanks to Lauren I felt beautiful on my wedding day and enjoyed being pampered the morning of my wedding.

Beautiful natural wedding makeup

Lauren did mine and my mum's make-up for my wedding day. Lauren is so talented, she listened to what we both wanted and also suggested colours that suited our skin and hair tones. On the wedding day she arrived with all of her equipment (which is full of amazing high quality brands, everything was beautifully clean and organised!) and made the whole experience calm and relaxed. My make-up lasted all day and night, I was so pleased and would highly recommend Lauren.

Absolutely delighted

It was such a pleasure having Lauren do my hair and makeup, and the hair of my bridesmaids, on my wedding day. On the morning she was prompt, great to talk to, and so talented in the way she looked at the photos that we had submitted for how we wanted our hair and recreated them. Throughout my communications with her, Lauren was extremely responsive and organised my trial at a time convenient to both of us and well ahead of the wedding, allowing time for tweaks / changing of decisions etc. I cannot recommend Lauren highly enough - I was delighted with my hair and make up, and my bridesmaids loved how their hair turned out. Thank you!

Dreamy makeup artist! 🥰

Lauren was amazing! She did my hair and makeup, all 5 of my bridesmaids and my mum, and made what I expected to be a very hectic morning extremely relaxing! I decided to change my hair on the day last minute due to the hot weather, but was super happy with the result and had lots of compliments. Thank you Lauren for making me feel like a queen for the day! 🤍

Best decision ever!

I am so happy I chose Lauren-Ashleigh to be my hair and make up artist for my wedding. (28.12.2022) Lauren was wonderful in just knowing exactly what to do, I barely had to give any direction as she just seemed to know what look I was going for! Really friendly, super chatty and helped calmed some nerves. Thank you so much!

An amazing makeup artist!

I would highly recommend Lauren for any wedding or event! She was absolutely fantastic and it was lovely to have her calm, professional presence on the morning of my wedding.

Lauren was so helpful at the trial and having never had my makeup done before, she put me a ease straight away! I wanted a natural look but still looking bridal and Lauren hit this brief perfectly!

Lauren did myself, 3 bridesmaids and my mum on the morning of the wedding and even put a bit of lippy on my nan before we left the house! Thank you again, highly highly recommend!

Very happy!

I was so happy with my wedding hair and makeup! Lauren was very helpful, friendly and professional and open to playing round with my ideas and suggestions. The day I got married was very hot and I was amazed how Lauren miraculously managed to fix my hair and makeup so that it all stayed in place, even on such a sticky day, without making me feel like I was completely caked in makeup and hair-spray! I don’t know how she did it. Honestly, I was really happy and definitely recommend her work highly.

I felt beautiful

Lauren was fantastic! She did the hair and makeup for me, my three bridesmaids, my mum and my husband’s mum. We all have very different looks and needs and she did all wonderfully. She was professional, kind, and I really enjoyed working with her!

Bridal Party Make Up

Lauren did the make up for my wedding including my own, my bridesmaids and my mum. She was incredible from the initial meeting with me to test styles to the day itself, offering expert advice, a calm and friendly manner and working brilliantly with our hair stylist. I cannot recommend Lauren highly enough and if I could get married every day, I would choose her every time!!
