Customer Testimonials

“WOW, Polly was simply fantastic! She put me at ease about my make up from the minute I met her at my trial. I suffer from acne on my face & chest & was having a flair up in the week leading up to my wedding, & she assured me that my make up would be perfect & it was. I felt & looked a million dollars. She was able to offer airbrush make up & a range of colours on my eyes & lips that complimented my pale blue dress & my make up lasted all night & looked flawless in my photographs.”

Would you say this is natural bridal makeup? 🤍 Would you say this is natural bridal makeup? 🤍
This bride has full coverage skin and lashes — yet the overall look still feels soft, balanced and effortless.
One of the biggest misconceptions about bridal makeup is that “natural” means minimal products. In reality, it’s about how makeup is applied, balanced and finished, especially for photography and changing light throughout the day.
Coverage can even out skin tone, lashes can frame the eyes, and thoughtful placement ensures everything still looks timeless — not heavy.
I specialise in bridal makeup for Lake District weddings, creating looks that feel natural, photograph beautifully, and last — whether that means barely-there makeup or a little more support behind the scenes.
Bridal makeup should always be tailored to you, your skin, and how you want to feel on the day.
Save this for your wedding makeup inspiration 🤍

A little about me — and why it matters on your w A little about me — and why it matters on your wedding morning 🤍
I’m Polly — a Lake District bridal makeup artist, born and raised here, married, and mum to two girls.
Before bridal makeup, I worked as a radio presenter, which means calm energy, clear communication and reassurance are second nature — especially on busy or emotional wedding mornings.
A huge part of my job happens quietly in the background: planning, prepping and making sure everything feels unrushed so you can simply enjoy the moment.
I specialise in soft, natural bridal makeup for Lake District weddings, enhancing your natural beauty and creating a calm, confident start to your day.

One of the biggest differences between everyday ma One of the biggest differences between everyday makeup and professional bridal makeup 🤍
Cameras soften features, lighting changes constantly, and makeup needs to be carefully balanced so it looks beautiful both in real life and in photographs.
Professional bridal makeup isn’t heavier — it’s more considered. Placement, structure and technique are what create a soft, timeless finish that photographs flawlessly throughout the day.

Bridal makeup trials are a personal choice 🤍 A Bridal makeup trials are a personal choice 🤍
A trial can be a really helpful way to explore your makeup look, understand how your skin responds, and feel confident knowing exactly what to expect on your wedding day.
That said, not every bride needs one — some brides feel comfortable going straight to the wedding day, especially if they love a soft, natural makeup style and trust their makeup artist’s approach.
I specialise in soft, natural bridal makeup for Lake District weddings, and I’m always happy to guide brides on whether a trial would be beneficial for them.

More than makeup — a moment.
Calm. Confidence. A woman who’s done the work.
SPF is one of the most overlooked steps in makeup SPF is one of the most overlooked steps in makeup prep — and one of the most important.

Without daily SPF, skin is more prone to dehydration, sensitivity and uneven texture, which means makeup has less to grip onto and breaks down faster throughout the day.
Even on cloudy days. Even in the UK.

For brides especially, SPF isn’t just about sun protection — it’s about skin behaving well under makeup, in daylight, for long hours and photography.

A well-chosen SPF supports longevity, smoothness and comfort, so makeup looks fresh rather than fighting the skin underneath.
Good makeup starts long before foundation 🤍
