If you are looking for a makeup artist who can handle an entire bridal entourage then we suggest trying Mimi Lomax Makeup.

They stood out to us because of the consistent quality of their services.

In fact, when we spoke to their former clients, there were many who mentioned that the artist is great at matching foundation — creating a natural look.

Another positive thing about them is that their makeup is long-lasting. This makes them even more ideal for events that last for hours, especially weddings.

We also appreciate their extensive portfolio that is readily available on the website. Here, we were able to see their extensive experience in doing makeup for weddings, commercials, films, and even editorials.

We also like that they offer trial services so that prospective customers can assess their skills. The rate for such service starts at £75 — which is a bit expensive but it’s worth it for those who want to ensure that they will like their makeup on their special day.

On top of this, the rate for makeup on the actual wedding day is £120 – which is the average price for such service. The full amount should also be paid at least one month before the ceremony – which might be inconvenient for some.

As for those who do not wish to pay in advance, it would be best to explore other artists in the area.

We think Jodie A Smith Makeup and Hair Team is an ideal choice for those who want support throughout their special day. We noticed that they are most commonly hired by brides who want to get regular touch-ups during their wedding day.

Aside from this, we also appreciate that their services are not limited to makeup only. In fact, they have competent hairstylists on their team.

Because of these factors, we think they can take care of the styling of the entire bridal entourage before the ceremony.

Because they have over 12 years of experience, we are not surprised that they were already featured in many magazines and have even been awarded as Hair Stylist of the Year for the Northwest by the Wedding Industry Awards.

Of course, such expertise comes with a price. Their bride’s hair and makeup cost £180 — which is a bit higher compared to other artists in the area.

However, if you factor in their skills and reputation, we think that they are worth the extra fee for those who are willing to pay.

We’d also like to mention that the team can also be busy at certain times, which prevents them from answering enquiries in a timely manner.

With this, we suggest that you contact them in advance if you want to push through with their services.

Hollie Fitzmartin is an educational institution that provides its clients with comprehensive and holistic makeup and cosmetic lessons that are not only highly applicable in recent times but also practical skills in the field.

We like that their lessons are highly relevant, up-to-date, and customized wherein they can help their students craft the best approach when it comes to applying makeup on their specific face and features.

Note though that fir services rendered on holidays and Sundays, rates of their services cost a little bit extra which clients may need to be aware of beforehand.

Overall, with their inclusive and accredited courses and services offered, exemplary array of individual and group courses offered, and excellent facilities, we highly recommend interested clients to check them out.

Kara Makeup is a great choice for customers who are looking for a composed and professional makeup artist. They are usually hired by brides who want to look good on their special day.

When we spoke to their previous clients, they mentioned that the team is great at executing specific plans. All their customers need to do is bring a picture or describe the look that they want to achieve and the artist will deliver.

Aside from Kara Makeup’s usual hair and makeup services, we were happy to learn that they offer a specialised look for brides who want to wear Hijab at their ceremony — something that is uncommon among artists in the area.

The only caveat is that we have received reports that the hair and makeup started wearing off in the middle of the day. Luckily, they also offer bridal touch-up services, but this will set you back £150.

However, what truly sets the team apart in our books is that they offer beauty bridal courses. We think this is a great option for those who want to do their own hair and makeup on their wedding day.

Additionally, this course is also available for aspiring makeup artists who want to capture Kara’s technique in applying makeup. According to them, this boosted their confidence in offering their services.

However, this will truly be a hefty investment as their course costs £950 for five days of training. There is also an option for one-on-one training at £1,350 for the same number of sessions. 

When it comes to having a wide range of services, we give it to House of Vanity. Aside from having commendable makeup artists on their team, they also have hairstylists on board who can help cut, treat, and set hair for special occasions.

With this, we think that they are a good one-stop shop for people who want to look and feel great for events.

Another thing that keeps us positive about this team is their convenient location at John Dalton Street. In fact, they are at the city centre and only a five-minute walk away from St Peter’s Square station.

We also spoke to their previous clients and they raved about how friendly the staff members are. They added that they have turned into regular customers because of the pleasant attitude of the employees.

When it comes to their makeup services, we were delighted to learn that the customers felt that the team was able to execute their direction well.

Unfortunately, we’ve gathered reports that the makeup did not last for the entire day. Here, some customers even mentioned that their eyelashes came off quickly and the eyeshadow became patchy.

However, these reports are significantly fewer compared to those who were pleased with the services that they have received.

When we spoke to their customers, most of them mentioned that the team is professional and accommodating. They make their clients feel comfortable during the process – a plus in our books!

We recommend them to those who may be anxious or worried about getting drag makeup done for the first time.

When we reviewed their services even further, we were happy to learn that they also do regular makeup looks for events.

We also think their regular makeup services are noteworthy because many clients we surveyed commended them for the long wear.Additionally, they also mentioned that it looks good both in person and in images. 

Speaking of images, Kardi Blac’s team is also experienced in photo and video shoots for advertising and editorial purposes. We like how they can even provide boards, mockups, and demos to help plan the shoot.

Finally, we like that their services are affordably priced. For instance, full-face makeup starts at £25 only.

Just keep in mind that this is the base price and it may go up depending on your specific requests. To avoid unwanted surprises, it may be best to clarify the full quotation before finalising anything.
