Wonderful Makeup and Hair - Highly Recommended!

Madalina did my makeup and hair for my wedding last month (June), and I truly can’t recommend her highly enough! From our trial to the big day itself, she was not only professional and incredibly talented, but also brought such a warm, calming, and fun energy to the experience.

I had a specific makeup look in mind, which was a glowy, fresh look with rosy/peachy tones, and modern, soft waves for my hair, in which I put into a moodboard and shared with her in advance. During the trial, we carefully went through everything together, and it really showed that she took the time to understand the moodboard and what I wanted. She really, really understood what suited my skin tone and features (especially my eyes 🥰, with the eyeliner), and she absolutely nailed the foundation shade and the eye makeup!

On the wedding day, Madalina brought that same thoughtful approach. She recreated the look exactly as discussed, and it seriously all came together even better than I imagined! It was perfect and looked so beautiful in both natural light and photos. I felt so elegant, radiant, and still very “me”!

Madalina is incredibly easy to work with. She’s responsive, kind, and flexible. She made the entire process smooth and joyful, even though I’m super sensitive with my eyes! Even my now-husband said it looked like we had a very fun time getting ready, and he was right!

I’m very happy that Madalina did my makeup and hair, and I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again for future events. Thank you, and see you again!

Fantastic Hair and Makeup

I cannot recommend Madalina enough for any special occasions. She was so lovely, making sure everyone was comfortable and ensuring everyone's personality was reflected in their styles.

We had Madalina do hair and makeup for our wedding in May. She did 5 hair and 5 makeups and every single one was absolutely beautiful and lasted the whole night (withstanding lots of dancing in a very warm venue!)

Madalina's passion and excitement for her work was infectious and she always made sure everyone was happy at every step.

Thank you so much Madalina for being part of our special day!

Madalina is wonderful!

I booked hair and makeup with Madalina for my wedding in April and she’s been absolutely wonderful. From the trial to the wedding day, she was very responsive, reassuring and professional. She not only did my bridal hair and makeup but she also single handedly took care of my bridal party as well. Before the wedding day, she gave me some tips on skin and haircare. I went for a different style than the one we tried at the trial, and she still delivered perfectly on the spot. She didn’t leave until I was completely happy with everything. My hair and makeup lasted all night on the wedding day and I was super happy with the results. She was very positive, and a pleasure to work with.

Amazing Make Up Artist!

Super professional but most importantly really nice and fun make up artist who dedicated several hours for my trial to ensure I would leave satisfied and then made my mum and friends look like princesses!

Her team went above and beyond (arriving 6am) and were really accommodating to the style each of us had dreamed.

Would defo recommend Madie! (And she can also understand Spanish which was a plus!)

Magical Madalina!

I cannot recommend and thank Madalina highly enough! By the time she had finished doing my hair and make-up, I felt like a movie star!
She made the whole experience an absolute pleasure, from our first video call to our trial and then the big day itself! She was extremely responsive, professional and friendly, and really cared about finding the look that I would be most happy and comfortable with. She tuned into my personality, and encouraged me to be bold, whilst also listening to my concerns. She is clearly very accomplished, and knows how to handle brides on their wedding days, bringing a sunny, but calm energy.
Madalina clearly takes so much pride in her work, and seemed to genuinely love being a part of my special day. I am so glad I booked her, and will try to find a reason to use her services again!

Bridal hair and make up

It is impossible to describe how great Madalina is. She has just done the hair and makeup for myself and 4 bridesmaids for our wedding. She is a wonderful, kind and funny person - absolutely the dream to have around on a special day!! Our hair and makeup stayed perfectly in place for basically 24 hours!! What an absolute legend!

Beautiful bridal make-up & hair + fun morning with Madalina

Madalina did the make-up & hair for my wedding for myself as well as my mum and sister in law. She did an amazing job and listened to our ideas as well as suggested what would look best on us. She was very easy-going and calm under pressure despite time pressure towards the end. I was very happy with my make-up and hair which looked amazing on photos and lasted the whole day despite some tears :) Thank you for making my day more special Madalina!

Couldn’t recommend more!

Madalina is not only super friendly, she is also so good at her job and responded to me immediately. She came to my house early in the morning to help me get ready for a wedding with just a few hours notice. I am so happy I found her!!!

Owner / Hair & Makeup Artist

Hello beautiful bride-to-be!

I’ve been a bridal hair and makeup artist since 2017, based in Wimbledon, London and available for travel.

My style is all about enhancing your natural features so you feel confident, radiant, and completely you on your special day. I take time to really understand your brief, your personality, and the vibe you’re going for—whether it’s soft and romantic, modern and polished, or something totally unique.

I believe your bridal look should feel timeless, effortless, and true to who you are. I offer trials to help bring your vision to life in advance, and I’m always happy to travel for weddings and destination events.

Fun fact: I fell in love with bridal beauty the first time I helped a friend get ready for her wedding—and I’ve been hooked ever since!

Let's create something beautiful together!
