Hi I'm Lou, a professional bridal makeup artist based in the North West’s bridal capital, the beautiful Ribble Valley!
Makeup has been a passion (obsession!) of mine since I was a young girl. It is such a pleasure to do something I love as a career and seeing the smiles on my clients' faces makes it all more magical. I am qualified to an advanced standard and am always looking to keep my skills updated through training with the ever changing trends in makeup.
Wedding makeup is my absolute love! Seeing my brides in all their shining glory, as pretty as a picture on their wedding morning gets me every time!
It is my job to make you feel and look the best version of yourself, I don't want to make you into somebody unrecognisable, I want to enhance your inner beauty and make it shine through!
I offer a very personable, reliable and professional service and I will go above and beyond to make sure that you walk out of your room on the morning of your wedding feeling positively spectacular.
Please do not hesitate to get in touch and we can begin your beautifying process.

Trial
Your trial take approximately 1.5 to 2 hours and will take place at my studio located at 106 Pimlico Road, Clitheroe BB7 4PT.
We will discuss any looks that you have in mind, the theme of your wedding, your dress, flowers, bridesmaids... basically everything! I will guide you through what I am doing, why I am doing it and what products I am using. Once we have found 'the look' I will take a few pictures and make detailed notes.
Trials will need to take place at least 2 months before the big day. If your bridesmaids require a trial we can arrange this easily.
Wedding Day
On the big day I will be there bright and early to set up my kit and make sure we are 100% ready to calmly and relaxingly begin the beautification. Each look will be perfectly tailored to the individual. You will leave the room for the last time as a 'Miss' ready to become the most stunning 'Mrs' ever!

"Louise is simply amazing.
Having had bad experiences with MUA's, who simply want to recreate ridiculous sculpturing and highlighting not suitable on any face in the real world!- I was reluctant to have anyone do my make up for my wedding.
I was though aware of my skin not being as it was in my twenties and feeling I needed some help!
I had been watching pictures posted over time by Louise and felt she would be different. And she was. She was superb from my first message and reassuring with words and trials!
I loved my trial and it helped to get me all excited for the big day.
She is a wonderful presence who calms and helps, without questions, with anything going on throughout preparations.
My make up helped me walk out with confidence, thank you." ~ Amanda

"Where to start with this amazing woman and MUA? After two fabulous trials, I booked Louise for my own make up, she also made up 4 of my bridesmaids and my two sparkly flower girls. Louise is not only amazing at what she does, she's friendly, personable, so talented and she listens! Nothing is too much trouble, she clearly wants you to look and feel amazing and you do! She even hung around once she'd finished to help to dress the children and offered to drive us the short distance to our venue when it started raining. Louise, you're one in a million and I can't wait for my Christmas party make up! Thank you." ~ Vicky

"I cannot begin to recommend Lou enough, she is an absolutely lovely lady with such an amazing talent. At our first meeting, I confessed I had no idea how i wanted my make up, but Lou managed to suss out my style and hit the nail on the head with the look she created for me straight away. On the day of the wedding she arrived early smiling and her bubbly personality eased my nerves instantly. Lou made me look and feel like a million dollars and the make up lasted perfectly all day and night. Thank you so so much for everything Lou!" ~ Gemma
