Knebworth House - May 25

Sophie was wonderful to work with, she is warm, friendly and really takes the time to understand your regular makeup look vs the look you want for the big day, in short she really knows how to enhance people's features without it looking overdone. She has incredible talent!

My makeup lasted all day and my mother and mother in law all looked and felt amazing alongside me as the bride! I would not hesitate to recommend Sophie - thanks a million!! Amy

Fantastic wedding makeup!

I was recommended by a friend to contact Sophie to do my wedding makeup and I’m so glad I did. From the moment we met for my trial a few weeks before the wedding, Sophie made me feel relaxed and comfortable. She really listened to what I’d said about wanting a fresh, natural look and she was then able to replicate this perfectly on the day. I had so many comments from guests about how lovely my makeup looked. And it stayed on all day too! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sophie to anyone looking for a friendly, professional and knowledgeable makeup artist!

Wedding March 2025

Sophie was a great make up artist for our wedding. She worked well with all the bridesmaids and our young flower girl - everyone was really comfortable and Sophie fit right into the vibe of the day. Everyone's make up looked great (natural but still glam) and stayed strong through the whole day.

Couldn’t be happier!

I booked Sophie to do my make up for a friends wedding and she was just brilliant! I don’t wear much make up usually and wanted a more natural look. She took that into account and did a really lovely natural dewy look. I got so many compliments on the day! I’ve booked Sophie to do my own wedding as I trust her skills like no other! I can’t wait!

Fantastic makeup

Sophie did my makeup for a recent wedding and I can’t fault her. I have some acne scaring that she covered perfectly. Thank you so much for listening to exactly what I wanted!

Couldn’t be happier

Sophie did my make up recently for a special event and made me feel absolutely beautiful in side & out. I often find it hard to find tones that suit me and she took her time to really understand how I preferred to have my make up done. I’ve used so many muas in the past and Sophie is by far the best, she made me feel completely at ease and my make up was flawless. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing experience

Sophie did my makeup for a friend's wedding and she made feel amazing. I got so many compliments. I've never been very comfortable with people doing my makeup for events but she was so friendly and instantly made me feel at ease. I'd definitely use her again!

Incredible!

Sophie did my makeup for my wedding earlier on in the year and I couldn’t have been happier! She pays such high attention to detail, she’s very friendly and personable, and as someone who doesn’t usually like getting her makeup done, she made the whole process so easy and comfortable for me. I have never felt more confident and beautiful, which is exactly what any lady wants on her wedding day! The majority of my interactions were continuous compliments! Thank you so much, Sophie. I will recommend you to everyone!

Simply amazing!

Sophie did my bridesmaid makeup for my friends wedding. Well what can I say if I could book her for every single life event and night out I would! She made me look flawless, I especially liked the eye make up, and her palette selection is a makeup lovers dream.

Thanks so much!

Bridal Makeup Review

I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Sophie as my makeup artist! From the moment she arrived (right on time!), I felt at ease. Sophie’s professionalism and attention to detail truly made my day extra special.

The makeup was stunning and exactly what I envisioned – she listened carefully to my preferences and enhanced my features beautifully. I was particularly impressed with the high-quality products she used, which not only felt great on my skin but ensured my makeup stayed flawless all day long.

Sophie also shared some amazing tips during the session, which I’ve already started incorporating into my routine. Her services are excellent value for money, considering the expertise and effort she puts into her work.

If you’re looking for a talented, reliable, and personable makeup artist, I highly recommend Sophie. She’ll make you feel like the best version of yourself!
