    Laura cartwright - the most amazing mua

    Laura is simply amazing! She is an exceptional MUA who is a perfectionist and artist all rolled into one.

    There are so many reasons to book Laura, but for me, she brought the vibes on the day with her brilliant personality. We laughed and had the most fun time getting ready together. Laura always goes above & beyond for her brides, and listens to what you want and then gives it to you in a finished look that is so perfect & beautiful it will take your breath away!

    Make up for mama

    I was extremely lucky to find Laura at short notice for my son’s wedding. Laura was extremely professional but also very warm, friendly, helpful to beyond and chatty. Instantly had fantastic advice when choosing colour palette. Value for money, exceptional, colours applied were exactly what I liked and looked fab. Had so many compliments on the day about my make up, ranging from amazing to beautiful! Would recommend Laura to anyone seeking a glam makeover, for whatever occasions. Extremely talented young lady.

    HMUA heart of gold

    So pleased I booked with Laura for my wedding hair and makeup. From the trial through to the big day I felt listened to. Laura not only executed the look I wanted, she has such a great personality… someone you want there on the morning of your wedding with your girls! I unfortunately was poorly the morning of my wedding meaning Laura had only 2 hours to get me made up! She was professional and empathetic and I felt so supported with her flexibility to swap timings round. Forever grateful ❤️

    The perfect hair and makeup artist for the perfect day

    Laura was absolutely amazing throughout the entire process. Such a lovely character to talk to, and so so knowledgeable. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better person to help me choose my look for the best day ever.
    Being interested in vegan and cruelty free products, this was a big influence initially; it's so great to see someone who cares about where their products come from in their craft.

    Laura helped me find the best look to suit me, my needs, my dress, the style of my day, and my bridesmaids too.

    So so happy with the service, I can't recommend enough to anyone who wants to look and feel like a glowy princess on their big day.

    Laura is incredible!!!

    Laura did the hair and make up for us at my best friend's wedding. She brought all the good vibes for a perfect and relaxed morning getting ready! The hair and make up she did for all of us was absolutely perfect, individually tailored to each of us and our different requirements and she made us all feel beautiful! 💞 Plus it lasted all day! I couldn't recommend Laura enough!!

    Best in the business!

    I knew Laura was the HMUA for me as soon as I started chatting with her. I wanted my make up really natural as I dont tend to wear lots of make-up and I knew I was going to have a flower crown and wanted it quite Boho. Laura's style of make up was totally what I was after and when I had my trial it was just spot on. Leading up to the wedding Laura was fantastic to communicate with and made me feel totally at ease.

    When it came to the wedding day, having Laura there felt like part of the bridal party! It was honestly one of the best memories from the day, getting ready, chatting away and feeling totally at ease and comfortable. I felt like a fairy princess with my hair and make up getting married in the woods and it was one of the hottest days of the year, a sweaty 34°c yet my hair and make up did not budge!

    I can only talk highly enough about Laura and what a fantastic difference it made to my day to have her as my HMUA and think the photos say it all!

    Make up for a special birthday

    I had laura do my makeup for my birthday party. I did not have a trail beforehand. When laura arrived i showed her a few photos of the look I was going for. We went through a few colours optitions for the eyes before Laura started but I mainly left it all to her expertise. Well laura certainly hit the brief. Im very fussy with my makeup and I know what I like so I was a little apprehensive beforehand but as soon as I meet Laura I felt at ease. When I looked in the mirror once Laura had finished I was in shock. Id never looked so amazing (even if I do say so myself) I couldn't stop looking at my makeup. It was the exact look I was hoping for and it was completly flawless, Laura even did my eyebrows amazing and anyone who knows me knows I'm very particular about my brows. Laura was a absolute pleasure, so friendly, chatty, funny, and made me feel totally at ease and took all the stress away from me doing my own makeup.
    If you are thinking of booking Laura then don't hesitate. Not only is she amazing at what she does but she's also such a lovely lady. The added bonus was I didnt need to touch my make up once during the night, even the lipstick lasted and everyone at my party kept commenting on how amazing my makeup looked. I will definitely not hesitate to book Laura again or recommend her. She's fab. 👌🏻

    Great Hair and Makeup Artist.

    Laura was fantastic, lovely to have around on the wedding morning and set me at ease at the trial. She did my mom's and my makeup beautifully, and we felt confident and the best versions of ourselves. Laura did the hair of myself and my four bridesmaids wonderfully too. I loved that Laura uses cruelty free products, something that was important to me.

    Absolutely fantastic start to finish!!

    Laura did hair and makeup for myself and my two bridesmaids at my wedding.
    She was incredibly responsive in communicating and organising trials etc ahead of the day, and answered any questions without issue and very promptly.
    She was fantastic to have around during the day of the wedding with great energy, and able to keep me calm when needed! All three of us really loved our hair and makeup - she delivered exactly what was asked and more, and helped us feel fantastic. Thank you so so much Laura!

    Fantastic wedding makeup!

    Laura did a fantastic job getting through 3 bridesmaids and myself on the day. I was super happy with my wedding makeup, as were the bridesmaids, as it was beautifulbut natural looking, and fitted our values using cruelty free makeup. I went for a trial with the lovely Laura who made me feel like I was in safe hands on the day. I was also planning my wedding from abroad and she was very responsive over email and Whatsapp. Would definitely recommend Laura to others as on top of being a smashing MUA, she's also a good laugh!
