Makeup by Holly Harnwell

I honestly don’t even know where to begin...Holly is pure magic. She did both my hair and makeup for my wedding, and I felt like the absolute best version of myself. She listened so carefully to what I wanted (soft glam with a bit of glow), and nailed it better than I could have imagined. My makeup stayed flawless all night, even through happy tears and sweaty dancing. She was also such a calming presence on the morning of, which I didn’t realize I would need so badly. Holly is truly one of a kind!

If I could give 10 stars, I would! I hired Holly for my bridal hair and makeup, as well as for my mom and two bridesmaids, and we were all so happy! She was so professional but also so fun to be around. My hair looked exactly how I envisioned and romantic and stayed throughout the whole day, even through the windy ceremony. I got so many compliments on my makeup—it was glam but I felt completely like myself. Even my Husband loved it and doesn’t usually like makeup. She’s truly gifted. And the value was worth every penny!! Can’t wait to have an excuse to see her again!

I had my makeup done by Holly for a photo shoot, and I honestly couldn’t stop looking in the mirror! She absolutely nailed the look. She’s so talented and made me feel relaxed the entire time. My makeup stayed flawless all day!

If you’re looking for someone who listens, understands your vision, and delivers it perfectly, she’s the one. 💕 Thank you again, Holly, for making me feel beautiful!

Holly is so professional and sweet! I got such a good vibe from her and I wouldn’t have trusted anyone else on my wedding day. She was so patient with me while I changed my mind a million times and her input was so valued. Holly did my makeup for my bachelorette and my wedding and nailed the glam and then more subtle look for my wedding perfectly!! Couldn’t be happier that I found her 🤍

I cannot thank Holly enough for not only the make-up and hair she did on my wedding day but also for my engagement party. Holly has an incredible gift to creates looks that both make you feel beautiful and also very much yourself. Her attention to detail is amazing and she is also just the most lovely person to be around - especially for big moments! She has a way to make you feel relaxed and taken care of whilst remaining professional.
I cannot recommend her enough and strongly encourage her for any future events. Thank you Holly.

Holly made me feel like an absolute princess on my wedding day! I have never felt more beautiful! Shes so kind , professional and a breath of fresh air!

I didn’t want a typical “bridal” makeup artist for my wedding- having had been a model for 10 years in New York, I was spoilt by working with the best makeup artists in the fashion industry and was very particular with products and technique. When Holly did my makeup for the first time I was blown away. I had never felt more beautiful - there was no “cakeiness” or thick layers of makeup- my natural beauty was enhanced and my skin was glowing. My now husband couldn’t stop staring at me and complementing me!! That’s when I knew I would hire Holly for my wedding day and she did not disappoint!! Holly did my hair and makeup. I originally had a lace dress, and we trialed a soft, pink makeup look that I was obsessed with. I ended up changing my dress and got a simple crepe one. Holly suggested a more bonzy look and she nailed it. I trusted her so much we didn’t even trial it and I honestly felt incredible on my wedding day. But the most shocking thing was that when I got back to my room after the wedding and after party- my makeup looked the exact same - glowing and perfect! I don’t know how she does it.
On top of that, she was incredibly professional, did not leave until everything was perfect and really brought a calm confidence and relaxing vibes (complete with essential oil aroma therepy and a light facial massage to remove all puffiness). Couldn’t recommend more!
