To some brides, authenticity is one of the most important elements of their wedding day.
I love working with authentic brides because:
โ they love non-traditional make-up looks
โ they usually create an unforgettable vibe
โ they love to add a little bit of *spice* to their day by adding in little unique surprises (like dinosaur slippers).
I love playing a part in showcasing that authentic spirit through make-up. Thank you for trusting me with your beautiful face Elsie.

Elsie was the embodiment of an authentic bride ๐ฟ

"I don't want to walk down the aisle looking like a different person."
That was an absolute non-negotiable request I got from my bride, Wilmie.
She had many experiences as part of other bridal parties where her make-up turned out looking heavy and caked-on, and she didn't want that for her wedding day.
Instead, she wanted to have natural-looking skin and soft creativity.
She needed a make-up artist that could listen to what she wanted and bring to life the vision she had in her mind.
I knew the drill because I had worked with many similar brides before. I could create a look for her that checked all her boxes.
It's safe to say Wilmie look freaking AMAZING on her wedding day!
What look do you dream of for your wedding day?

When you say natural... I listen ๐๐ผ
So you really don't want that cakey makeup on your wedding day.
But you're not completely sure how to convey the vision you have for your makeup to a makeup artist.
If you are being honest you're a bit uneasy because if s/he misunderstands you think that you may end up looking like a totally different person walking down the aisle.
I completely understand that because most of the brides I work with have the exact same thought.
So, to help you make sure that you are booking a makeup artist that will make you feel heard, incredibly beautiful but not at the expense of feeling comfortable in your skin, I'll share four free tips that will help you do that.
Why should you listen to me you might ask? I'll tell you why.
1. I'm a professional makeup artist and I've been making brides feel incredibly beautiful and more importantly like their authentic selves when walking down the aisle for 6 years now.
So let's get into the four tips you need to book a makeup artist that will listen to what you want and be able to execute your vision.
1. Look for diversity in their portfolio or Instagram: you want someone that showcases creativity, different looks and techniques. If a makeup artist has more than one look on their pages you know they are adaptable and will be able to do anything you throw at them
2. Jump on a Zoom call with them: this way you get to know the MUA's personality. You can also ask any questions you have before committing to anything.
3.Remember it's your wedding and you are allowed to be direct when explaining what you want. You could use phrases like:
โ I don't want to look like a different person
โ I don't want caked-on makeup
โ I DO want a lighter application
โ I want a soft and flowy look
โ I want glass skin
โ I want flawless skin
4. Have a lot of example pictures. Make sure you have pictures of what you like and what you do not like. This very little room for any misunderstandings.

1. Have example pictures of what you like and what you don't like. The more we know, the better we will understand
2. Be direct. We won't take offence if you tell us exactly what you want and don't want. We welcome it.
3. Describe as much as you can: "I want sheer foundation", "I want full coverage foundation", "I don't like heavy eyeliner", "I love winged liner". "I prefer matte colours", "I love shimmers and mattes" etc
4. Avoid telling us to do what we think will look best. Yes, we are trained to make you look the best we can for photo's etc, and we will most definitely do exactly that with the specifications that you've given us. You are the one that has to feel incredibly beautiful and we are the ones that need to execute YOUR vision.
