Just amazing!

Leanne really is amazing at what she does, I’ve been to Leanne for occasion makeup multiple times over the years so I’ve always had the upmost confidence in her but she really takes bridal to the next level! I was so pleased with my trial we kept pretty much everything the same and I just trusted Leanne to do her thing and I’m so pleased I did. Even for my wedding makeup the whole look was just another level and I didn’t think she could get any better?!
On the morning of my wedding she arrived on time, worked to a schedule and was so efficient and calm - exactly the vibe you need on the morning of your wedding! Not only did she make me feel amazing all day but she also made my bridal party all feel and look incredible too and for that I’ll always be grateful. They absolutely loved her! I really cannot recommend Leanne enough!

The most amazing makeup artist 🥰

I don’t even know where to start, Leanne was hands down one of the best parts of my wedding morning. From the moment she arrived, she brought this calm, positive energy that honestly made the whole getting ready part of the day so fun and relaxing. I was nervous, excited, emotional every emotion you could think and she just kept everything light and easy. (Positive potato 🥔)

When it came to the makeup, I truly couldn’t have been happier. I told her I wanted something soft and glowy that still felt like me and she 100% delivered. My skin looked flawless but still natural, my eye makeup was so beautiful, and the whole look came together perfectly, exactly how I wanted. I felt so confident, comfortable, and beautiful. The most beautiful I have ever felt!

My makeup lasted all day and night, even through happy tears, hugs and a full on dance party until 12am!!!

Leanne also did makeup for my bridesmaid, guests and my mam, and every single one of them looked stunning. She took the time to listen to what each person wanted and everyone felt amazing. Plus she kept us all laughing and calm while staying perfectly on schedule with time to spare.

If you’re getting married (or need makeup for literally any event), do yourself a favour and book Leanne.

She’s insanely talented, so sweet, and just the kind of person you want around on such a big day. I’m so grateful I found her, she truly made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself.

10/10, would book her again in a heartbeat. 💕
