Amazing 🌟🌟
I booked Hester for my Wedding in September 2025. From the moment I met her, she was amazing! From my trial to the wedding day, Hester was so easy to deal with - she is such a calming, helpful and all round lovely person. Hester did my Bridesmaids & Mums makeup also, and they were all so pleased and were very complementary of Hester. On the day, we were made to feel so relaxed and comfortable, and were complimented by so many people on our makeup! I would without a doubt recommend Hester, and I will 100% book Hester again should I find myself needing a makeup artist in the future! 🤍 -

Absolutely perfect!
Hester feels like your new big sister from the moment you email her!
From the beginning you feel like she has your back. Her responses are always quick and she does everything she can to help/be flexible despite being busy.
I was nervous about my trial as I'm not very creative with my make up and my winged eyeliner is like my emotional support but through her calm and confident guidance, she showed me how I could look like 'me' but just a little more refined and bridal.
On the day, she was calm and reassuring and I always felt like she was being totally honest when me or my bridesmaid her asked for her opinion. She felt like 'one of the girls' during the morning and was an absolute joy to have around!
Thanks so much Hester, I am so chuffed with my make up as well as my mum and Bridesmaids! They all looked like the most glam gorgeous versions of themselves. -

Incredible!!!
From the very first email to the day of my wedding, Hester was absolutely fantastic.
She was incredibly accommodating when it came to booking my trial, and no question ever felt too small—Hester was always happy to help and quick to respond.
On the big day, she did makeup for me (the bride), three bridesmaids, and my grandmother—and every single one of us felt so beautiful. Her work is stunning and speaks for itself, but what really stood out was how much she went above and beyond.
Hester wasn’t just our makeup artist—she became an extra pair of hands and a calming presence. She helped my grandmother with her hairpiece, assisted me with my dress, jewellery, and even my shoes. She truly supported the entire bridal party and played such a vital role in making the morning smooth and special.
Having Hester there on the day meant having not only an incredible makeup artist, but also a caring, thoughtful person who made such a difference.
I can’t thank her enough! -

Cannot recommend Hester enough!!
Hester was honestly amazing! At our wedding trail, she made me and my wife feel so calm and comfortable. She made sure our wedding looks complimented each other, but stood out in their own right. On the day of the wedding, she made all of us feel so comfortable and beautiful. She gave me and my wife touch up kits, which was such a lovely touch. The makeup lasted all day, to the point that we didn’t need to use the touch up kits! All the bridal party felt listened to and all loved their makeup. We could not of asked for a better makeup artist, she managed to capture a really special moment between my wife and I of our first looks which meant the world to us!
We are just waiting for another event where we could book in with Hester! -

10/10 Bridal Makeup
I booked Hester for my wedding makeup and honestly wouldn't have chosen anyone else! She was perfect from the trial through to the big day even sharing the entire list of products with me so I could order a few for myself! She made us all feel so calm and confident during the morning of the wedding - we felt like it was a pamper session! I loved my wedding make up and my bridesmaids and mom were also delighted with how they looked. We were glowy and radiant all day long. Thanks so much again, Hester!-

Perfection
Couldn’t have asked for a better person to spend my morning with. Hester was calming, cheerful, reassuring and so helpful. My makeup looked outstanding and I wish I could have it done like that every date night. Cannot recommend her enough. I’ve never felt so beautiful and my wedding day was made better with her help. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she went above and beyond just makeup duties. -

Never felt so beautiful in my life
Hester was phenomenal. I randomly attended one wedding fair just as it was all closing and grabbed Hester's flier, and I'm so glad I did. I was nervous about not liking my make up, as of course I wanted to look perfect and I really didn't need to worry. She was so lovely from start to finish - with mine and my mum's trial, to being flexible and adding my bridesmaids last minute and just making be feel honestly like a queen on my wedding day. I cannot recommend her highly enough! -

Fantastic from start to finish!
Brilliant from start to finish. If you want to feel glam and look incredible on your wedding day then look no further. From the first contact Hester was super friendly and great at communication. During my trial I had minimal ideas about what I wanted and let Hester do her thing and it was perfect! On the wedding morning she was organised, chatty and a calming influence. All my bridesmaids and MOB/MOG had their make up done and everyone looked incredible and the make up was flawless all day and night. Thank you so much ☺️ -

Absolutely Amazing!
Hester is absolutely fantastic! The second I started planning my wedding, I knew I wanted to book Hester along with Leanne(leannelishmanartistry).
I was very fortunate to be part of a bridal party for another wedding who also used Hester, everyone absolutely loved Hester and the magic she created with the wedding party! It was a no brainer when it came to looking for the perfect artist for my wedding.
Hester is honestly so lovely and knows how to make you feel comfortable. She made sure to listen to what each individual party member wanted, but also provided advice along the way.
We were all so impressed with how our makeup turned out, I can’t thank her enough. From myself and the rest of the bridal party, thank so much🤍
