There are 16 shades to choose from so if you struggle to decide online to purchase the right shade pop into one of her counters...

During this time one of the main requests I received from the brides is that they felt make-up needs to look flawless with delicate approach to colour. I wanted to share with you some of the images of a look I created with this approach in mind and the products I used. In keeping with the delicate colours of the flowers, décor and the venue I wanted to keep a peachy hue with the makeup but add a black eyeliner for a hint of drama. For the eyeliner it was kept quite thick and heavy as opposed to the obvious winged cat flick eyeliner...

When I arrived on the ‘Wild Thing’ photoshoot I was captivated by the flowers at Manor Garden.  There was an abundance of colour, and I waited for the final flower bouquet to be created as I wanted to enhance the similar colour theme. My style is always about creating perfect flawless skin, and I always prepare the skin with a face massage using Steam cream moisturiser.  This acts as the perfect base before foundation ....
