KRISTIE'S STORY
I believe bridal makeup is about enhancing natural beauty in a way that looks effortless, polished and refined. I always strive to make my brides feel the best possible version of themselves, without feeling overdone. My favourite part of bridal makeup is tailoring it to suit your style, features, and vision. I have worked with hundreds of brides over the years, each and every one of them unique, so my job is always creative and new - which is why I enjoy it so much!
​
​I offer onsite services and specialise in both bridal makeup and hairstyling.​
