I had a makeup lesson with Sarah and it was amazing. Sarah is a delightful person and her techniques and explanations were very easy to follow. I learned a great deal and am now applying my makeup very differently! Particularly my eye makeup. Sarah also sent me some very helpful videos and links. I would definitely recommend her.

Thanks to Sarah who did a wonderful job of my wedding day makeup. She was able to give me a natural look, which was exactly what I wanted. She is a lovely person and was professional and easy to deal without throughout.

From the first time I contacted Sarah about makeup services for me and my bridal party she put my mind at ease and had me convinced that I'd made the best choice possible for my MUA.

From day one, Sarah was prompt, professional and kind. She gave free advice on skin care prep and was so helpful to me, a bride with very little knowledge of makeup and some self image challenges.

During my bridal trial she put me at total ease and was so much fun to work with. And it was the first time I'd had a makeup look that made me genuinely love my natural features (something I never thought possible). After that, Sarah was in great contact and ran a trial for my Aunt to make sure she also had confidence heading into the wedding.

On the wedding morning, Sarah was incredible! We had so much fun having her do our makeup and the results were amazing. Everyone looked fantastic and our makeup lasted all day and night!

Her makeup line is also superb quality.

I could not recommend her more. Thank you Sarah for making my wedding prep so incredible from start to finish!!

Sarah was my wedding makeup artist. I had a trial with her ahead of my wedding in December 2021 and she worked so hard to make it a memorable and enjoyable experience for me. She gave me a little treat bag and some Prosecco to enjoy while I was with her.

Sarah is a kind person who quickly puts you at ease and makes you feel comfortable. Sarah is keen to listen to you so that your preferences and wishes are taken on board. She responds quickly to emails and provides lots of tips and product recommendations to help you prepare your skin for your wedding!

On my wedding day, Sarah came very early to get started on my mum and sister's makeup, she brought an assistant along with her as well as her extensive kit and a lamp to improve the lighting. She is a highly professional and competent makeup artist. I would thoroughly recommend her for wedding makeup. My makeup stayed put the whole day. I look back at my photos and feel very glad I chose Sarah!

I had Sarah as my make up artist for my wedding and she was brilliant. I have problematic skin, which I was nervous about for the big day, and Sarah made sure that we covered this at the trial and made me feel confident that my skin would look its best. On the day, she had the perfect amount of coverage for me whilst still looking natural and my make up in general was just how I wanted it. She also done my mum/mother in law and both of them were really happy with how they looked. I would 100% recommend her!

Having had an online class with Sarah, I was keen to learn more and managed to see her in-person.
SUCH a treat! She is a complete delight to meet, and her method of teaching was perfect - she worked on one side of my face and I copied on the other. I’m not sure that things looked quite even on both sides(!), but I learnt so much!

Sarah is so generous with her time and her professional expertise. She shared so many really valuable tips that I have started using daily, and I’m beginning to feel so much more aware of how to make the best of the makeup, and of my face, which I have never felt before.

If you have the chance, do take a class with Sarah…You will love it - and her!

I personally never wear much make-up and I had never had my make-up done professionally before so I was a little nervous when I went for my trial with Sarah. I wanted a very natural look, so I still looked like myself, but so I was also photo ready! However, I needn’t have been worried. Sarah knew exactly what I wanted and once I looked in the mirror I knew I had found my make-up artist for my big day.
On the wedding day Sarah arrived promptly and was super organised, making me feel at ease straight away. I also had 5 bridesmaids getting their make-up done by Sarah. Each one of them absolutely loved their make-up and they all looked stunning. Sarah made me feel so relaxed and I could not have been happier with my finished look. My make-up and eyelashes stayed on all day and everyone looked flawless on all our wedding photos.
I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking to book make-up for weddings! Thank you Sarah for doing such a wonderful job!

Sarah did my makeup for my marriage celebration recently and did a phenomenal job. I especially loved how she made me glow and feel radiant, but most importantly, natural and still like myself. The makeup remained throughout the day and into the evening.

Sarah and her assistant also did the makeup for the wedding party. Everyone felt beautiful and looked gorgeous! My mother-in-law couldn't stop talking about how great she felt. It was my husband's niece's first professional makeup session and she was in absolutely loved the entire experience (and outcome!). Even my mother, who can be extremely picky, loved how her makeup turned out. It was a true testament to Sarah's talent and skill. Both Sarah and her colleague were exception and wonderful to work with. We couldn't have asked for anything more.

I reached out to Sarah back in 2019 after seeing her profile when I began to plan my wedding overseas. Due to the pandemic and strict travel restrictions, I had to push the wedding back 3 times. Sarah remained extremely understanding and accommodating. I was finally able to meet her for my preview earlier this year and she was just lovely. Sarah was super professional and listened to everything I said as to what I was looking for (or not).

I would recommend Sarah without hesitation!
