My name is Michelle and I am a bridal makeup specialist based in South Liverpool covering the North West.
I've been in the industry for over 18 years now, 10 of which working as a freelance artist and for the past 7 years -exclusively bridal!
I specialise in beauty enhancing soft glam makeup that photographs beautifully, looks flawless in real life but also leaves your skin feeling light and breathable AND LASTS ALL DAY & NIGHT!!!
Every bride receives a touch up kit tailoured to you to help ensure you are photo perfect long after those heart felt "I DO's"
I love giving my brides next level customer service, and pour my heart into every single client - when you book your bridal makeup with me I do not simply provide a service and then leave:
I am a there until the very last moment for you and your party and I will do absolutely anything I can to help.
From a full touch up service, putting on shoes, jewellery, veil, coordinating the morning to fitting your gown -I promise to take the stress away from you, ensuring a smooth running, fun & relaxed bridal prep together!
I really care about each and every one of my brides and I hope we become friends long after your special day!
I work with some of the most fabulous venues, and proud to be preffered by:
Calderstones Mansion
Allerton Manor
Rainhill Hall
Yew Tree Farm
Knowsley hall
The Grosvenor Pulford
Hard Days Night
Village Hotels
The Isla Gladstone
If you’re a 2026/2027 bride I’d love to be part of your day to help make you look and feel every bit as beautiful as you truly are.
If you'd like a quick quote, or even just a friendly chat regarding your special day, please do get in touch, I would just love to hear from you!
Love Michelle x
Bridal Packages
Bridal Trial: from £85
I recommend a bridal trial anywhere from 12 weeks before the wedding, but of course you can request one anytime you'd like!
A bridal trial with me is a 2 - 2.5 hour appointment that takes place in the comfort of your own home if local, or from my home studio.
Trials are not only fun and relieve so much bridal stress but also I feel it's really great to get to know eachother before the wedding so you feel totally comfortable on your wedding day -like you're with a friend!
I take lots of photos of you in natural light and also with a photography light to make sure makeup will be flawless for your photography and in real life!
After your trial I will contact you to see how you got on with your makeup and if any tweaks are needed.
You'll receive a full product breakdown as standard and your gorgeous photos of course.
Sometimes simply slotting in 1 or 2 products to your skincare routine can make all the difference in getting the best from your skin for your wedding day, and I'm happy to help any of my brides with a skincare regime if you'd like (no charge)
*Bridal trials take place Mon-Thurs at 10am*
TIPS:
-Wear a white top if you can
-Have your hair trial on the same day where possible, if not, style your hair in a similar way (this is going to give you the best idea of how you will look on your day!)

A true pro of a bridal makeup artist. From the trial to the day of your wedding day she is super supportive and professional.
She is kind to other members of your bridal party.
She uses the best products. My skin was flawless and I felt a million dollars on my wedding day!
Thank you so much Michelle!
