Last update: March 2026

Hey, I'm Emma, an award-winning hair and makeup artist in Derbyshire & cover the East Midlands. I specialise in luxury natural makeup and Bridal hair creations. makeup lessons are available. I started out in TV, Fashion shows and photoshoots and now focus solely on offering a mobile service as a bridal makeup artist and hair stylist. I have 90 plus 5 star reviews on google & over 23 years experience.

Services Offered

As I'm self-employed, I value my reputation and reliability and go above and beyond for my brides and their bridal party, and I'm very passionate about what I do. I aim to make you feel relaxed and radiant in your own skin on your special day. Whether you want NATURAL or GLAM, I can make your wish come true that lasts into the following day, should you need it to. I use high-end cosmetic brands like Estee Lauder, Charlotte Tilbury, and Bobbie Brown, to name a few. Equally happy to use a specific bride's/bridesmaids' own products where they have skin issues or sensitivities, so they can still enjoy the professional, lasting effect of my skills.

I offer additional services for the whole bridal party, including the groom.

- gel manicure and pedicure

- Builder gel if you've broken one.

- pre-wedding relax treatment

- faux tan that is natural

- natural lashes

Absolutely wonderful service by an absolutely wonderful person!

Emma was an absolute gem! A very last minute booking but she was so flexible to work with and fit it perfectly to what we needed! Her work is stunning…we were getting compliments on our hair all day (and night!!). She is such a lovely presence to have in the room getting ready too! Giving helpful tips and chatting with everyone!
Couldn’t recommend her services enough.
Thank you Emma! X

Couldn’t have found a better MUA 🤩🥰

Emma was absolutely amazing from start to finish, I loved our make-up trials & she helped me wade through my Pinterest mood boards & make decisions 😂
On the day, she arrived and I immediately felt at ease and like nothing was too much trouble! I adore her products and she really gave me a flawless natural look that was exactly as I’d hoped for!….my mum and the girls agreed, and they were equally thrilled with their hair and make up!
Emma worked so efficiently, she is so effortlessly talented at what she creates, and I would book her again in a heartbeat. You get more than your moneys worth, and I would 10/10 recommend 🩷

Lovely and Friendly Makeup Tutorial

I recently had a makeup tutorial with Emma, and it was really nice to spend time with her and see how passionate she is about makeup. She’s very friendly and easy to chat to, and I enjoyed seeing her style and techniques. She shared some helpful tips that created a really glamorous look, and I’m looking forward to trying it out myself. It was really nice to experience her approach to makeup.

Really happy with my make up, I would 100% recommend

I was so happy with the result of my make up look, and would 100% recommend Emma.

I was after a no make up make up look, which needed to be high coverage for photos etc, but natural enough for me to feel like me….. she absolutely nailed it.

She got the memo straight away and said lots of brides ask for a no make up make up look! She a showed me a few photos for reference to make sure we were both thinking along the same lines, Emma explained that the look might seem straight forward, but people have different ideas of what a no make up look means (some really mean no make up, but others like me mean quite a lot of make up, but in done such a way that it looks like natural but polished!!!)

Thank you so much Emma.

Exceptional experience from trial to wedding day

I couldn’t have been happier with my hair and makeup for my wedding. From the very first trial appointment, Emma was incredibly attentive and really listened to exactly what I wanted, offering her expertise while making sure the final look felt completely “me.” On the wedding day Emma was calm, professional, and made every effort to ensure everything was perfect. Emma paid such close attention to detail and truly made me feel beautiful. My hair and makeup lasted all day and night, and I received so many lovely compliments. I would highly recommend Emma to any bride looking for someone talented, thoughtful, and completely dedicated to making you feel your best.

Midlands Makeup Artists - for stunning bridal makeup!!

Emma O’Regan was professional from start to finish, having had a few curve balls thrown her way from start to finish, she was superb. She understood all of the small detailing on the younger girls, helping add to their natural beauty. My bride Caroline was looking absolutely stunning all day, and blew me away!!! Thanks so much Emma for your help making our day magical!!
With love, Chris & Caroline -The Holts ❤️💙xx

Brilliant start to my Wedding Day

Emma arrived early to set up and was a brilliant calming energy in the room whilst me and my bridesmaids were getting ready. Everyone was so happy with how they looked for my big day. I was thrilled with my hair on the day too. I would never have tried the look myself but Emma knew the style would suit me and my dress on the day. Thank you again Emma I will happily recommend you to others in the future.

Personal but highly professional&experienced


Emma is an amazing make up artist and hairstylist - highly experienced and gives a totally personalised service to what is required i.e. she changed her approach for my make up/hair for my wedding day to make up/hair compared to my evening birthday party - she make me feel amazing every time she works her magic with hair and make up. She is friendly and helps with the full 'look' on the day/night (including getting me into my dresses!!). Her beauty room is gorgeous for trials and treatments, and when she comes to my house she is tidy and efficient. I would highly recommend Emma for any of your occasions needing incredible hair and make up.

Better than I could have imagined

Emma was wonderful and I can't recommend her enough. She was quick, professional and I was delighted by how I looked on my wedding day, as were my bridesmaids. She did my hair better than I had pictured. My make up has never looked so good.
