I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you for doing my wedding makeup so wonderfully on Boxing Day. There's a photo taken of me at 1am after dancing my heart out all night and my makeup still looks flawless! My Mum and sister were both really pleased too and liked that their makeup was very subtle and lasted well.

Thank you so much for the wonderful make up you kindly did for my sister and I. We both felt like princesses and I know you re installed the confidence in my sister that day. Every one was amazed at how good my make up still was in the evening! You were brilliant!

Myself, my Mum & my bridesmaids all looked fabulous & it was all down to you. Loads of people commented on how great my makeup was & how natural & polished it looked - & of course my wonderful fake lashes!! You were an absolute pleasure to deal with – nothing was too much trouble & you really relaxed us all on the day, bringing with you an air of calm! All the girls enjoyed having their makeup done & we all found it a treat to be able to be pampered for the morning!

Thank you for doing my make-up so beautifully on my wedding day. I was so impressed with how you made me look absolutely 'flawless'. Many people commented on my make-up and asked who had done it... I love the eye lashes they look great. We have also just got the wedding video back and my make-up looks amazing.

Well words cannot express really how pleased I was with all your hard work so thank you. I know you have said before that the way you are and treat "us" brides is just what you would expect anyone too but trust me it's not - you really are fantastic and went that extra mile to make me feel like such a princess. It's just such a shame it's over so quick! I'll have to come back to you for one day just to feel special again!!!!

Nat Eyles, 5th July 2008

Thank you again for your hard work, I thought everybody looked really lovely. Even in the photos taken towards the end of the evening, none of us looked blotchy or dishevelled…. just a bit tipsy…. Laura went to a black-tie function recently and was disappointed she couldn’t recreate her amazing eyes, so I expect we’ll be seeing you again before too long for proper make up lessons!

Caroline, Wedding, December 2007

I didn't get a chance to thank you properly on the day as we were a bit pressed for time, but wanted to say a big thankyou for all your hard work and fab job you did on the wedding day. I was very happy with how everything went and felt very at ease - apart from when I got to the church and almost puked through nerves! Best of luck with everything, and thanks again!
Stacy, Wedding October 2007

Just a quick message, how much it would cost to get my Mum a make up lesson as a Christmas present? She loved your wedding make-up and fancied having a lesson. She would really love it
