Fantastic service

Ruby is a very talented make-up artist. From booking her for a trial through to my wedding day, communication was easy and she put me at ease from the minute we met. Ruby was able to advise on the look I wanted and I was really pleased with the end result. Ruby worked with my hairdresser to make sure everyone was ready on time and I would recommend her 100%. I also felt she was very reasonably priced for the great service she provided. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again

Wedding day Oct 25

Ruby was absolutely amazing at doing mine and my bridesmaids makeup. I quote from one of my bridesmaid, "I don't want to take my makeup off, I have never looked this beautiful!"

Ruby was fantastic during my trial and wedding day. She answered all my questions and recommended foundations that suited my skin beautifully and looked flawless.

I am so glad you was part of my special day and I appreciated everything you did for us. Thank you!

5 stars aren’t enough! ⭐️♾️🤩

I can’t thank Ruby enough for the absolutely stunning job she did on my wedding day! From the very first trial, she listened so carefully to what I wanted and made me feel completely at ease. On the day itself, she was calm, professional, and such a lovely presence to have around — exactly what every bride needs!
My makeup lasted flawlessly all day and night, even through happy tears, dancing, and hugs. I felt like the best version of myself — radiant, confident, and beautiful. She also did an amazing job on my bridesmaids, who all looked gorgeous and felt so comfortable in their looks.
Ruby is truly talented, passionate about her craft, and has such an eye for detail. I couldn’t recommend her more highly to any bride-to-be — she’s an absolute gem! 💕

Literal perfection!

Ruby made all my bridesmaids and me feel absolutely gorgeous. Having the trial was also amazing, we got to talk about all the things we could do, and Ruby made sure to do a look that felt like me.
That day is probably the best I have ever looked (and probably ever will 🤭) Thank you so much Ruby! ♥️

Ruby is amazing!

Ruby was absolutely brilliant and super flexible with my request of myself as the bride, my mum and seven bridesmaids. The price was more than reasonable for such beautiful work. I felt so listened to when it came to what I wanted and no one felt anything short of beautiful on the wedding day itself! She is extremely talented and I couldn’t recommend Ruby more!

5* wedding make up artist!

Ruby was the make up artist for my wedding in August, creating the perfect look for me, my mother and 3 bridesmaids. Ruby was so professional and it was great to meet her for the first time during my trial. I immediately knew I was in safe hands and I was amazed at the look she achieved for me. My day to day make up look is very basic but she created a fabulous natural look which looked great but also felt light on my skin.

Her communication was exceptional throughout the process. Whether in relation to arranging the trial, payments or plans in the run up to the day.

The morning of the wedding was so enjoyable and my bridal party really enjoyed Ruby styling their make up. She coordinated brilliantly with the hair stylist and was so friendly throughout.

Overall, I would 100% recommend Ruby. I couldn't have asked for a better make up artist to style me on my wedding day!

Wonderful Make Up Artist

Ruby did my bridal make up and my bridesmaids make up and I was blown away, with her make up skills and also her lovely personality and communication from start to finish. I had a trial before the day, not really having too much knowledge on make up, and usually wearing very minimal looks. She asked a lot of questions and really listened to what I was looking for. I felt like an absolute queen on my wedding day and still felt so comfortable in my own skin. You would be crazy not to book her for your wedding!

Highly Recommended!!

I can’t recommend [Makeup Artist’s Name] enough! She did my make up for my wedding day, as well as for my 5 bridesmaids and my mum, and she was absolutely incredible. From the moment she arrived, she created such a calm and relaxed atmosphere, which made the whole morning run so smoothly.

Everyone was so impressed with their make up - it looked beautiful in person and in photos, and it lasted perfectly all day and night. She really listened to what each of us wanted and made sure we all felt confident and comfortable.

I’m so grateful to have had her as part of my wedding morning - she was professional, talented, and such a lovely presence to be around. I honestly couldn’t have asked for more.

Thanks again xx

Amazing results! Super talented

I had such an amazing experience working with Ruby! From my trial to my wedding day, she made me feel so comfortable and confident. She really listened to what I wanted, gave great suggestions, and created a look that was even better than I imagined. On the day of my wedding, she was calm, professional, and so kind - exactly the energy I needed. My makeup lasted beautifully all day and night, and I got so many compliments. I can’t thank her enough for helping me feel my best on such a special day. I highly recommend her to any bride-to-be!

My Wedding 25th May 2025

Me and my wife got married on the 25th May. We booked makeup quite last minute and I chose Ruby after looking at quite a few other makeup artists and looking at socials at what style each one was. Ruby is a great MUA, she was great from the start and very professional. On the trial She asked for lots of inspiration and always said that she could change something if i wanted it changed. She sent over a full breakdown of costs including deposits for the day and for the trial. Each one had the date that it was needed to be paid (I may have accidentally not paid for the ceremony on the right date) but she messaged me a few days later to make sure I was going to pay but was very polite and very okay about it. On the actual ceremony date she came on time and very ready! She started with my mum and then me and then my sister. I wanted to add an eyeliner flick on the day and she was ready to add it into my look straight away. She also made sure everything was perfect, made sure that before I left for the ceremony she touched up all the last bits after I had been crying a bit whilst putting my dress on. But the look was flawless and gorgeous and I couldn’t have asked for a better look than what I got.

Excellent!

From the moment I met and had my makeup trial I knew Ruby was the perfect MUA for me.

Putting me at ease straight away knowing what I wanted with very minimal makeup experience. I felt so relaxed and at the end felt so confident with my wedding make.

Thank you for making me feel one in a million on my special day! Xx

Professional and talented!

I found Ruby on hitched and she truly is a talented make-up artist.
She put me at ease from our initial contact, to the trial and most importantly made me feel relaxed on my wedding day.
She listened to my requests and executed the most amazing makeup which looked as good at 2.30am the next morning, as to when it was applied 16 hours before!

Without hesitation I would recommend Ruby for any makeup occasions … you will not be disappointed!

Thank you for making me look and feel amazing!

Highly highly recommend Ruby, when we done my trial we discussed what I wanted and I wanted a natural look but with some colour on the eyes! I fell in love with my makeup and couldn’t wait for it to be done on the day! Ruby made me feel relaxed and was just so lovely! Thank you ruby for making me look and feel amazing on my special day!

Amazing make up and lovely artist!

The makeup was exactly how I’d dreamed it to be- I couldn’t have asked for better. Ruby was also lovely and so easy to talk to when I was having my makeup done which made the whole experience a lovely one
