When I talk with brides-to-be, one thing they often express is their desire for "perfect flawless skin" with "natural makeup" that can last the entire day and into the night. Does that resonate with you?

The concept of having perfect skin, free from flaws, blemishes, lines, pigmentation, vitiligo, rosacea, freckles, and scars is very hard to promise. In truth, very few possess "perfect skin." It's the very imperfections that make us unique, individual, and, ultimately, human. Instead of feeling embarrassed, consider embracing them as part of your beauty journey.



Allowing your natural flaws to shine through on your wedding day can be empowering. Besides, the most important person on that day, other than yourself, is your partner. Chances are they've witnessed your skin in various states, during highs and lows, and they still love you wholeheartedly. So, while the desire for perfect skin is entirely understandable, let's momentarily remove the word "PERFECT" from our vocabulary and opt for "EVEN" instead.



I have written a simple 6 month skincare plan that I send to all my clients when they book me for their wedding day, which breaks down ingredients and what they're for - with a consistent skin care routine, your skin will be ready to receive a glowing makeup that will last.


Makeup can work wonders in covering things. Often, the quest for flawless skin before your wedding day can lead to stress and anxiety. In the pursuit of perfection, you may find yourself experimenting with an array of lotions and potions, spending a small fortune, and, unfortunately, experiencing the dreaded outcome – breakouts.


So, it's time to eliminate the word "PERFECT" from the equation and focus on achieving an even base that leaves you looking fresh, naturally beautiful while providing the coverage you desire. The saying "There's no such thing as perfect" couldn't be truer. Cherish the skin you're in; it's your protective shield, it keeps you comfortable, and it's undeniably fantastic. Makeup artists have the skill to enhance your natural beauty and conceal blemishes, allowing your true radiance to shine through.


With the right makeup artist, you can achieve a look that leaves you feeling confident and beautiful.


As a makeup artist, I've had the privilege of working with countless brides and actors to help them look and feel their best. However, some stories resonate more deeply than others, reminding us of the incredible impact makeup can have beyond mere aesthetics. One such heartwarming experience was when I was contacted by mother of the bride who had battled with Lichen Planus. She needed to find a solution that could provide coverage and even out her skin tone, allowing her to confidently attend her daughters wedding without feeling self-conscious.





Immediately, I felt a rush of empathy for her. It's moments like these that remind me of the true power of makeup, not just as a cosmetic tool but as a means to empower and uplift individuals. It's a service I feel honoured to provide and has a special place in my heart. So please get in touch if skin issues such as vitiligo, rosacea or high pigmentation is something you're struggling with.


After carefully considering her needs and concerns, I knew the perfect solution lay in the Dermacolor Cream product. I currently specialise in this product and teach people how to use it from Kryolan City London. This incredible makeup boasts an impressive 50% pigment content, making it an ideal choice for situations where maximum coverage is required. It's a go-to product for makeup artists looking to address various skin imperfections effectively. The results were nothing short of remarkable. The product effortlessly concealed any blemishes, providing a smooth and even complexion, But what truly mattered was the smile on her face when she saw her reflection. The confidence in her eyes was a testament.


This experience reaffirmed my belief that makeup can be a powerful thing, boosting not only external beauty but also the inner confidence that makes every individual smile. It's a reminder that, as makeup artists, we have the unique opportunity to make a positive impact on people's lives. And for me, moments like these are the true essence of my profession, where beauty meets empathy, and transformation meets empowerment.


In conclusion, your wedding day should celebrate your unique beauty, including those imperfections that make you who you are. Embrace your natural self and trust that the right makeup, with a focus on even skin, will enhance your radiance and confidence on this special day.


Remember, it's not about achieving "perfect" skin but feeling perfectly content and beautiful in your own skin.
