    Absolutely amazing

    Cannot recommend highly enough. Amazing service, beautiful hair and make up. Went above and beyond. And I’d say my expectations were high and Shair fulfilled them and more. Amazing care and attention to detail. Wouldn’t have wanted anyone else with me that morning.

    Fabulous HMUA

    Shair was so fast and precise with my makeup application, I looked like myself and not caked, she got the assignment first time and knew how I wanted to look. I loved the mobile beauty box element, as it meant we were not disturbing the household. My makeup also lasted from 6am till midnight, with minimal touch ups. Super pleased, and would book again. On top of that she's a super sweet human very real and very genuine! I'd recommend with no hesitation :)

    If you don’t book this lady, you’ll miss out!

    Shair has a great set up, I’ve never seen anything like it! Her work is amazing, she works with you and considerate of your opinions. She truly understands what people mean by wanting to look like themselves.

    My hair and makeup lasted from 5am to 1am the next day, it would have probably lasted longer if I’d let it!

    Great service, exceptional skill and the nicest person. If you don’t book her, you’ll be the one missing out!

    Thank you Shair, you’re truly amazing! xx

    Indie, thank you so much for your beautiful words! 🥹💛 It was such a pleasure getting you ready — your energy made the whole experience even more special. I’m so glad you felt like yourself and loved how everything lasted through the day (and night!). Clients like you make what I do so rewarding. Thank you again for trusting me! xx

    Michelle, thank you so much for your kind words it truly means the world to me. ✨

    Maternity photos are so much more than just images; they’re memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime, and it’s an absolute honour to be part of such a special chapter in your journey. Listening to your vision and bringing it to life is at the heart of what I do, and I’m so grateful you trusted me to capture these moments for you.

    Amazing hair and make up!

    Shair did my hair and make up for my small wedding ceremony in Margate, she did an amazing job! She was very professional, friendly and did everything as I pictured it. Shair has a lovely sense of humour and nature and made me feel very relaxed and comfortable, I knew I was in good hands! Thank you! ☺️

    Bridesmaid makeup and hair

    Such a beautiful job of both makeup and hair. Both also done in record time with no fuss. Got so many compliments on both especially the eyes. Don't hesitate to book here !

    The Make-Up Box's reply:

    Thank you so much, Amritha. It was such a pleasure doing your hair and makeup, and I truly appreciate you trusting me on such an important occasion. I know it’s never easy meeting someone for the first time and allowing them to take over, so your trust really means a lot. I’m delighted you were happy with everything, and I very much look forward to seeing you again in December for your next event. ✨

    Best day ever

    After having a bad experience with one of the make artist, I was really nervous and apprehensive to get my makeup done my Saher. She listened very carefully what I wanted and also guided me. The makeup and hair she did was absolutely stunning. I was soo happy, she made my day. I will definitely be using her again and for any one booking with her just trust her, she knows what she is doing.
    Thank you soooo much for making me feel beautiful and confident.

    Each look was 10/10!!

    We had the absolute pleasure of having Shair do our makeup for my wedding, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She did my makeup as well as my mum’s and sister’s across three events, and every single look was flawless. She has incredible time management, always keeping us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. Each look made us feel so beautiful, confident, and perfectly suited to the occasion. Beyond her amazing skills, she brought such a calm and lovely presence to the day, which made the whole experience even more special. I can’t recommend her enough!
