I still get excited when I see a bride ready to walk down the aisle. I know it is one of the most important and beautiful days of her life. That is why I approach every wedding with the individual care, enthusiasm, and personal attention a bride deserves on her special day!
My goal as an artist is to create a warm, naturally beautiful look using a palette of colours, textures and pigments that complement your unique personality and complexion. Using only the finest products, I work to accentuate your most beautiful features. You are the most important person in the room. I want you to feel happy and radiant. I welcome and value your input. I listen, because my job is to achieve the look you have always dreamed of for your wedding day.

I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better MUA for my wedding day.
As I was planning from abroad, I wasn’t able to travel over for a trial, which could have been stressful, but Catherine was so reassuring, flexible, and completely unfazed. Also so accommodating with my ever-growing bridal party, which I really appreciated!
Not only did they do a beautiful job on me, but everyone in the bridal party looked incredible!
Beyond the talent, Catherine brought such great energy to the morning; so calm, fun, and full of banter. It genuinely felt like having extra friends in the room, and it made getting ready such a special, relaxed part of the day.
I’m so grateful and would recommend her in a heartbeat 🤍

Iv been using Catherine for make up for many years, so when I got engaged I knew there was only one make up artist I wanted by my side on the most important day in my life. She's and angel that walks on earth ! When she says what are you think? My answer is always my face is in your hands ! She know her stuff, she works her magic with my deep set eyes and narrow face, probably one of the hardest faces to paint, but once I look in the mirror Iv a smile from ear to ear! She's so professional yet down to earth and even when the nerves set in she's on hand to crack a joke and put you at ease ! My make up didn't just last all day, through many hugs tears and hours of sweaty dancing I walked dwn for breakfast with a perfectly intacked full face of fabulous make up

Catherine really went above and beyond. She done myself, my mam and my bridesmaids the morning of the wedding. She was mighty craic but also so down to earth. She came recommended so I booked a trial and never looked back. She really listened to what I wanted but also offered suggestions. I ended up liking her ideas far more than my own. She was also very quick and flew through us on the day which still doing our make up to perfection. My make up lasted all night. Catherine also stayed until I was dressed and ready Incase I wanted any touch ups. I didn't expect her to stay but she really does go above and beyond. I?d recommend her to anyone.

Couldn't recommend highly enough. Catherine has done my make up for many occasions over the years so it made sense to book her for my wedding day. I had some skin issues on the lead up to the day and she was a much needed calming voice with plenty of advice/recommendations. I need not have worried though! Results on the day for myself, bridesmaids and mother of the bride were beyond what I could have hoped for. As friendly, professional and accommodating a service as you could wish for. Many thanks, always!

I first experienced Catherine's makeup as a bridesmaid at my sisters wedding and when I got engaged myself I knew exactly who to book for my big day! Nothing but professional, kind, caring and a real joy to have in the house for morning preparations! My makeup was everything I had hoped for and more, it looked so effortless and flawless, I truly felt amazing! I can't thank Catherine enough for making me feel so special. One of my favourite aspects of Catherine's makeup artistry is the sheer longevity of it, I celebrated all day and partied all night and it never budged - perfect for photos in the wee hours!! I can't recommend Catherine enough!

I booked Catherine to do both mine and our bridal parties makeup and I couldn't have been happier with the end result. I had tried other makeup artists previously on other occasions but knew when i had my trial with Catherine that she was actually listening to what I wanted for my wedding day. The makeup was so natural looking on all of the wedding party and Catherine took great care in matching our makeup to our tans. Our eye makeup was fantastic and we got lots of compliments on the day. Our makeup stayed put all day too with plenty of dancing involved. Comes highly recommended from me.

Catherine has done my make up for serval occasions so I didn't need to think twice when asking her to do my wedding make up. Nothing was too much for her and she made me and my bridal party totally at ease on the morning of the wedding. Catherine really has a passion for make up which you can see in her work, always staying up to speed with the most up to date products and techniques. I couldn't reccomend Catherine highly enough, I only wish she could do my make up every day.

Catherine did a fantastic job for me and my bridal party. She is very professional and extremely talented. Catherine is calm and relaxed, the type of person you need on your wedding day. The level of care & attention given to each make up application is second to none. We felt amazing and our make up stayed perfect all day long. Could not recommend Catherine enough.

Catherine did the most amazing make up for me on my wedding day. She made me feel the most beautiful I ever felt, and did exactly what I asked for. I had 4 bridesmaids, 2 of them of which were teenagers and her subtle make up application on them was just beautiful and so suitable for their young skin. All my bridesmaids were so happy with their looks. Since Catherine did my make up for my wedding day I have been back to her several times for her to do it again for weddings and parties I have attended. I recommend her to all my friends and she even did their wedding make up for them too. Catherine is such a lovely person, and I will always go back to her. A very talented make up artist. I honestly could not recommend her enough.

I had the pleasure of having Catherine do my makeup for my wedding in September 2019. From my makeup trial through to the big day Catherine was amazing she has a wonderful detail for colour, respectfully listened to my vision, and moved throughout the getting-ready period of the day with a calm, collected stress-free attitude. My makeup was flawless lasting all day and night, and it really showed when we got back our professional photos! I'd highly recommend Catherine for wedding makeup for your big day!
