I won "Highly Commended Make up Artist"
​for London & the South East 2015

When asked why they booked me, this is what they said...

“I’d seen her work at a previous wedding”

“Having seen Kirsty’s work on her website and facebook etc, I knew that I would use Kirsty as soon as my wedding was booked. I didn't even consider using anyone else. She gave me my perfect day.”

“Her work is outstanding”

“My sister had Kirsty to do her bridal, bridesmaid and MOB hair and make up”

“I used Kirsty as she had previously done the hair and make up for a friend of mine and I watched the process from start to finish and it was fantastic! She comes with such glowing reviews from her brides and she manages to provide a professional but very personal
service. You can tell she genuinely enjoys her work and meeting "her" brides. From the minute she started my trial she asked the feel of the wedding the look I wanted and didn’t finish the trial (hours long) until I was happy with the entire look. No matter how many times I messaged her to check everything was still ok she always replied, her website was fantastic looking at her reviews etc. I liked the personal touch about her wedding etc too”

“She had done a few other brides I Knew and out of all the make up artists I researched I like her the best”

“I saw reviews of Kirsty’s work online and when we met her for the trial knew we would love her to be a part of our wedding day.”

“Her website clearly showed the different styles of bridal make up the before and after section really helped show how talented she is! We booked our trial session before my best friends birthday night out to see how long it would last. The trail was at 3pm and we got home from a night out at about 4am and the make up still looked great I knew she would be perfect for my big day! I loved it so much that we have booked her again for my mums wedding this November!”

“I booked Kirsty a year in advance she has done other people's bridal hair and make up and the end results were amazing .I was over the moon when Kirsty was available on my wedding day. She is very popular in my area.”

“Is seen previous work she’d done on a friend for her wedding and really liked what she’d done. Booked her for a trial and loved how she made me look”

“Kirsty was recommended by a colleague of my husband who had used her for her wedding. We had a trial meeting and I was blown away and didn’t bother to look elsewhere.”

“Kirsty was very friendly and had a calming nature which was just what I needed. She was always forthcoming with any info or questions we had and I knew she was the one I wanted straight away.”

“I was astounded by her before and after photos on her website. There were some amazing transformations”

“Saw her work on her website and thought it was great.”

“Her extraordinary talent for exquisite makeup, I have never looked so beautiful. I was blown away with the entire image she created for me.”

“Kirsty is punctual, skillful, experienced, quick and most importantly, makes the client feel relaxed and trust her! She was literally part of the bridal party as we all gelled so easily, being attentive and involved in the day. The make-up and hair lasted the whole day without a single touch-up needed, so that my bridal party looked stunning, confident and happy! The best party is that Kirsty was able to do both jobs (hair, make-up and lashes extension) within very short time frame (4 make-up, 4 hairs, 2 extensions within 3.30 hours!) and we were delighted with the way we all looked on the day. I would recommend Kirsty to anyone as the best make-up and hair artist for anyone looking for true professional.”

“I thought her before and after photos on her website were very impressive.”

“I was recommended by many friends who have used her and was a bridesmaid for a friend in June and she did a brilliant job on out make up then.”

“I saw her beautiful hair and make up from a friend's wedding and knew I had to have her do mine.when I met her she was amazing, put me at ease and came up with fantastic ideas and recommendations xxxx”

“Loved the work on her website, no other make up artist compared”

“Kirsty has been used by various friends and family members and I love the way she did my hair and make up on my special day!”

“Her work is basically second to none”

“Professional website, quick response from Kirsty and she was always happy to answer any questions I had, fantastic reviews and before and after photos. After my trial I knew I could relax and completely put my trust in Kirsty and her abilities.”

“I had seen and heard of her work and knew that I would feel in safe hands on my special day, even more so once we met. She is always impeccably turned out with great attention to detail and that is a quality I value when they are working on someone else’s appearance. I was so happy to be able to secure her services for my special day!”

“Recommendation from a friend and amazing trial!”

“Firstly for her flawless hair & MU skills & secondly because I knew with her calm demeanour & happy personality she was the perfect person to keep everyone calm & happy on the day. I cannot praise her enough.”

“above but also i had seen and liked her work / Results when she did my sister's wedding 5 years ago. i didn’t even ask anyone else!”

“Best hair and make up artist. Saw one of her brides pictures before I was even engaged. Knew that when my big day came she was the girl for the job!”

“Because she was recommended by our wedding planner and because I liked her work seen on the webpage.”

“Highly recommended”

“I booked Kirsty after attending one of my friend’s weddings and seen the beautiful make up she had.”

“I have sensitive skin prone to outbreaks when I feel anxious, Kirsty gave me the flawless look I dreamt of for when my nerves were at their peak! My wedding day! Ty Kirsty x”

“Kirsty had done my sisters hair and make up for her wedding day previously. I remember thinking she looked the best I’d ever seen her. Breath taking. Glowing. I dreamed that I would look even slightly as radiant on my wedding day. Looking back at my wedding
pictures, Kirsty made my dreams come true! My skin looks flawless, everything was perfect(including my dress and veil) and that was all thanks to Kirsty. Like I said she went above and
beyond she waited to help me which she did not have to do. Kirsty was like an extended part of the family and fitted into the morning schedule perfectly. I would not have done a single thing differently. She truly works magic and her happiness, calmness and friendliness was an added extra to the wedding morning. I am just sad it’s over and I hope to work with you again in the future. Thank you for everything!”

“I tried two other hair and make up artists which were also recommended but was not happy with them. I was very pleased with the trial with Kirsty and she did it even better on the day.”

“Her website showed many diverse styles and she had loads of examples, made me feel confident that she was very professional and had been doing it for a long time.”

Thank you to each and every one of you that have taken the time to write such beautiful words, you are why I love my job so much!! xxxx

I was awarded "Highly Commended" Make up artist for London & the South East at the 2015 Wedding Industry Awards, here are the comments that my 43 Brides wrote on their voting forms...

“My make stayed on all day which, I think, is vital for a bride. The make up she used was very natural looking and I looked flawless in my pictures. Highly recommended.”

“Kirsty was very professional and friendly. She really went out of her way for me and done an excellent job of my hair and make up. She gave me tips on what would look good with my dress and made me feel very glamorous. I highly recommend Kirsty.”

“it was great to know Kirsty was free to do my prep for wedding as she had been the artist at my sister wedding five years ago. We had to change the dates a few time due to venue complications but Kirsty was responsive and changed with us. she knew what i preferred and matched make up and hair to suit my flowing dress. she helped me get into my dress with family around on the day and was a calming influence among the business that morning.”

“Im not the most confident person when it comes to my looks Kirsty made me feel AMAZING! She listened to exactly what I wanted and boy did she deliver! All my guest commented on
how stunning my make up was and She made me feel so confident! She also did my maid of honours make up we felt amazing!”

“Kirsty’s work on her website was gorgeous & in person she was bubbly, friendly & professional. Even tho she was not well on the day of the trial she still came. She coped perfectly with 3 flower girls & a difficult MIL & did 4 x hair & 3 x MU on the day to a tight
schedule. A consummate professional”

“Kirsty went above and beyond throughout my whole experience with her for the lead up to the wedding and on the wedding day. She made me feel relaxed and beautiful. I could not have asked for more on my trial or on my wedding day. Not only that, but I had very dry and sore skin on my wedding morning (I was devastated). Kirsty made me feel at ease and worked her magic to make me look flawless. I was so happy. Not only that she stayed longer to help get me into my dress and veil.”

“Kirsty was professional, lovely, helpful and really got my vision for the hair and makeup for the day. Everyone said we looked like princesses and I loved the natural makeup and hair look. It fitted in with the day perfectly.”

“Kirsty is extremely professional and takes pride in her work which is definitely apparent in the results. I was extremely happy with the end result on the day and shall recommend her to all my friends.”

“Kirsty’s skill are amazing, Kirsty goes above and beyond her duties as a make up artist with the end results flawless, my make up lasted all day/evening and didn’t require any touch up. I have two children so didn’t have the time to think of any exact styles and Kirsty was great in coming up with suggestions especially with my daughter's hair.

“Kirsty was always professional and friendly, given her past experience working for the make up industry I felt completely confident in her ability to deliver what I’d asked for on the wedding day . I would certainly recommend her to a friend .”

“Kirsty was fantastic”

“I had tried 3 make up artists before Kirsty...I was ready to throw the towel in and do it myself...however, she completely transformed me and gave me the exact wow factor look I was after...I did not want the natural makeup bride look, I wanted to look and feel glam and she done exactly that for me”

“Kirsty was the perfect friend on my wedding day. I actually forgot she was there to do my make up and hair because we were laughing and joking so much. I was utterly thrilled with my hair and make-up for my wedding I looked like I had been airbrushed. I briefly explained to Kirsty what I wanted for my wedding look but instinctively she know and concept was far more exquisite than I could have imagined. I was blessed to have Kirsty as my make up artist. She deserves to win this award!”

“Kirsty was absolutely amazing on the day. She had such a calming way about her which is essential on a busy hectic wedding day! She truly is an artist! Her abilities and skills are at the best I’ve ever seen. I was able to get married feeling confident that my hair and make-up had been done immaculately and I am so thankful for that!”

“Kirsty was very professional and listened to exactly what I was trying to achieve with my wedding style and theme. She managed to do exactly what I asked for with no problems. I loved the end result.”

She really captured my personality in both my hair and makeup and made us all feel very relaxed and comfortable whilst applying the makeup and styling the hair. Communication leading up to the wedding was great which was
really reassuring and I felt very safe in her hands”

“Oustanding, professional service. Highly skilled and knowledgeable.”

“Other than having my hair up & wanting flawless makeup, I didn't have too many ideas and left the rest to Kirsty. From the beginning of my trial, I trusted her completely. My hair was a work of art and my makeup left me looking like a hollywood star. Beyond any expectation. She was worth every penny!”

“She was absolutely fantastic Make up and hair remained perfect all day Photos look natural and everyone comments on how lovely we all looked Kirsty made the morning stress free and relaxing She did my hair and make up, 4 bridesmaids make up and my mums make up. Would highly recommend”

“Kirsty was brilliant at the make up trial and the wedding, I was over the moon with my make up and so were the bridesmaids, and mother of the groom, none of which usually wear makeup, Kirsty made everyone feel really comfortable and even the groom called her a miracle worker in his speech!”

“If I could give Kirsty an 11 I would! Kirsty is so kind, enthusiastic and professional. At both the trial and on the wedding day Kirsty made us feel so special. My hair and make up on the day was fantastic and just what I’d imagined and lasted well all day and night!”

“Kirsty was extremely professional and friendly. She listened to what I wanted in terms of my make up and gave good advice. I was so happy with both my trial and my wedding day make up. It was really reassuring to have someone who made me look like me - only
better!!”

“Everyone complimented me on my hair and make up at the wedding.”

“Kirsty was professional and fun. I think she did a great job even though we were short of

time on the day.”

“Kirsty was amazing, we had my trial and I loved it but I then changed my mind so on the wedding day she did something different, which I really really loved. My make-up was stunning and everyone commented on how beautiful I looked, which is all down to Kirsty. She is so lovely and so friendly and will do anything for you. She even did my flower girls hair on the day as well unexpectedly which was a nice touch.”

“Kirsty is absolutely amazing at what she does and I was blown away by my wedding hair and make up. She gave fantastic advice, was always so friendly and I could completely relax, knowing I was in safe hands. Her skills gave me the confidence to look the best I could on such a special day.”

“Kirsty is a true professional, very skillful and experienced, calm and relaxed; she is offering advice where needed but still very tactfully listening to the clients’ wishes, she worked quickly and efficiently and gave us long-lasting finish for the whole day - she is the best make-up/hair artist!”

“Kirsty became such an essential part of our day. She came exactly when she said she would in the opening and realised my dream for how me, my mother, and my 4 bridesmaids would look on my wedding day.. I can not thank her enough for making me look more beautiful than I thought I could on our day!”

“Kirsty is incredibly talented. I am so fussy but she listened and created exactly what I wanted. I felt so beautiful on the day and it was thanks to Kirsty. I completely trusted Kirsty, I had a last minute change of mind about my hair and she created exactly what I wanted on the day”

“Such a kind caring lady, really put me at ease and gave me plenty of ideas of what would suit my colouring and my dress.”
