I love this photograph of the beautiful Rebecca. When Rebecca came to see me we discussed all options regarding her Bridal make-up look. Rebecca doesn't wear much make-up as is a Dr (and a Mother now!) Rebecca is blessed with lovely skin so I didn't have to use too much foundation or concealer, but I did use a small amount of each where needed. I always prefer to use less than more, and I love to be able to [...]
For those of you following me on Facebook, etc, you will know I entered The Wedding Industry awards and won the Wedding make-up artist of the year award for the East Midlands region. This week I took a trip to London where the nationals were held, at the Cafe de Paris in Leicester square - it was a great experience. I did not manage to win but receiving the feedback and amazing comments from all of my lovely clients [...]
When you book Tina you are safe in the knowledge that you are booking a Professional make-up artist. Tina's price reflects her - Luxury service, expertise, reputation, time, knowledge, personalised customer service and client care plus a thoroughly clean and sanitised make-up kit. Tina also invests a lot of money into updating her make-up kit with only the highest quality products and tools. Similar to photographers, the time Tina spends on one client is not just the couple of hours spent [...]
I have been inundated recently with requests for make-up lessons. From Mothers who are at their wits ends from their daughters contouring habits, Husbands who have been constantly asked for a make-up lesson with me and also from ladies requiring help with applying their own make-up - we are never taught at school are we!! I believe this should be part of the curriculum! Make-up is such a powerful tool. Christmas has been a very busy period for me and [...]

I work with so many lovely ladies and it really is an honour to be able to help someone look and feel their best, (yes, it sounds cheesy but I mean it!) Its such a confidence boost when not only do you look good, but you FEEL good! the 2 go hand in hand! I know all too well! If I don't wear any make-up, I do feel quite low! make-up is such a powerful tool and when used [...]

I am very lucky to be a columnist for The Lincoln Journal and The Lincolnshire Journal magazines, (I also write columns for The Wedding Journal too.) My most recent column in The Wedding Journal is talking about why you should book a Pro make-up artist on your wedding day. Here's a snippet, "Weddings are a time of celebration and happiness and I am always honoured to be a part of someones' special day. When choosing a Make-up artist, you can't [...]

The model was the beautiful Urte. The dresses were from the amazing [...]
