Ayla Rose Jay recommends All about you Make up Artist.
Sue is incredible!
I went to a few makeup trials and came out of all of them feeling awful. I wanted a natural style but also wanted good coverage for my blemishes. I don’t normally wear a lot of make up on my eyes.
The make up artists I saw either painted on very thick obvious foundation, or didn’t give me good coverage but gave my eyes a (lovely) but inappropriate ‘going on a night out’ look.
I’d given up hope till Sue was recommended to me by Julie from Bridal and Vintage hair (brideshair@gmail.com).
She is not only an incredible make up artist, but has this magical empathy that meant that during the trial, within a few minutes she had ‘got’ me, my personality and what would make me feel comfortable (both in make up and how she treated me). She was so in tune with my emotions and what I needed. Instead of going for the look most people would assume I wanted, she knew what I wanted before I’d even requested it. At the trial I cried with relief and happiness when I looked in the mirror. She made me feel amazing. She got great natural coverage and a classic and elegant make up style that complimented my hair and dress perfectly. In addition, Sue and Julie had a brilliant rapport with each other that put me totally at ease. They both clearly love what they do and work so well together.
Sue recommended me a brilliant skin care regime and stayed in touch – she answered all my questions in the 2 months before my wedding and by the day I was feeling really confident about my skin.
On the day, Sue was just amazing. I even felt confident enough to ask for slightly more eye make up as I completely trusted her not to overdo it, and she once again got it spot on. It wasn’t just a brilliant bridal make up experience… she was nurturing, calming, and knew the perfect time to joke and the perfect time to help me just breathe and keep calm. She even took her own videos and pictures of moments that wouldn’t have otherwise been captured and sent them straight to me! Sue was both a make up artist and an instant friend that made the wedding morning experience an unstressful, wonderful peaceful and enjoyable time. She’s made of magic! My Mum and aunt absolutely loved the make up she did too – which were both completely different styles from each other and me. She’s clearly a very versatile make up artist, with lots of experience and can read people brilliantly. I felt amazing on the day, largely thanks to Sue.
She even kept in touch after the wedding to ask how it went, with genuine happiness and enjoyment to hear how well it went.
Thank you, Sue, for being such a huge part of what was the best day of my life!
I can’t recommend her enough! Go for a trial, you won’t regret it! I really recommend having the hair and make up trial together too
