Emily Tamsin Makeup Artist

Here’s the perfect example of why bridal makeup trials are so important. 🤍

When Crystal came for her trial, we created the exact look she had envisioned based on her inspiration photos and everything we discussed. She absolutely loved it!

But after wearing the makeup for the rest of the day (and, like every bride, checking it in the mirror a *few* times! 😂), she realised there were a few things she’d like to change. She wanted her eye makeup to feel softer and brighter, and although she loved a glowy complexion, it wasn’t the best match for her skin type or the longevity she wanted for her wedding day.

By the time her wedding arrived, her hair colour had also become brighter, so we took that into account when choosing her makeup tones. We softened the eyes, opted for warmer complexion tones, and swapped the glow for a more matte finish that would wear beautifully throughout the day.

The result? Makeup that was completely tailored to *her*, her features, her colouring, her skin type, and exactly how she wanted to feel on her wedding day. ✨

A bridal trial isn’t just about discovering what you love, it’s also about discovering what you *don’t*. Inspiration photos are a fantastic starting point, but what works beautifully on someone else may not be the most flattering or long-lasting choice for you.

Your trial also gives you the chance to wear the makeup in real life, so we can see how it performs on your skin over time. This allows me to make any adjustments needed before the big day, ensuring your makeup looks beautiful from the moment you walk down the aisle until the last dance.

A trial is also the perfect opportunity for me to assess your skin and recommend a personalised skincare routine in the weeks leading up to your wedding. Healthy, well prepped skin is the foundation of beautiful makeup, and with the right preparation we can achieve the best possible finish and ensure your makeup performs beautifully throughout the day.

Every bride is unique, and your wedding makeup should be too. A trial gives us the time to perfect every detail, so when your wedding day arrives, you can sit back, relax, and know exactly what to expect. 💕

How gorgeous is our beautiful bride Milly and her bridal party? 🤍✨

Milly and her bridal party all went for natural glam, and I honestly love this kind of makeup. It’s all about enhancing your natural features, keeping everything soft, glowy, and beautifully blended without feeling overdone.

If you’re someone who doesn’t usually wear a lot of makeup (or hardly any at all!), natural glam is such a lovely option. You still look like *you* just a little more polished and camera-ready for your special day.

If this is the kind of bridal makeup you’ve been dreaming of, I’d absolutely love to be your makeup artist. 💕

Whether it’s for your wedding, a special occasion, or you simply want to feel your absolute best, natural glam is always a favourite. ✨
