Best Bridal Makeup near me in Shipley View, Ilkeston

From the start of my bridal makeup journey right through to the big day Sam has been absolutely incredible! For someone who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup she put me at ease during my trial and made me feel confident with the look we were going for! She checked in throughout my journey and even after the wedding day she was excited to see photos! She made me and my bridal party feel amazing and confident on the day and couldn’t have gone any better! Our makeup lasted all day with no need to touch up! Her products and service were amazing! So glad I chose you 🧡 thank you so much xx

I was extremely happy with the makeup service. Very professional, attentive to detail, and truly focused on understanding exactly what I wanted. The makeup looked beautiful, natural, and lasted perfectly the whole time. Beyond the technical skill, I really appreciated the calm, friendly attitude and the comfortable atmosphere — it makes such a difference. I felt confident and well taken care of from start to finish. Highly recommend without hesitation! Thanks Sam XX

In short, there aren’t enough words to describe the transformative experience of being cared for by Sam Cahill. As a professional, she is flawless—mastering her techniques, understanding her client's needs, and creating looks that go beyond makeup. They’re personalized works of art. Her eye for detail and her ability to enhance the unique beauty of each person are unparalleled. But what truly sets her apart is who she is as a person. She radiates warmth, is genuinely dedicated, and always makes me feel confident and at ease.

Sam is a very professional, friendly and proficient make up artist. I felt at ease from the moment I entered her room. Her knowledge is very broad and I was really pleased with the results. I will be returning for an advanced lesson, once I’ve mastered my everyday look. Jules Leadbitter Ilkeston Serenity Holistic Therapies.

Went to Sam today for my wedding trial makeup, was so unsure whether I wanted a makeup artist or to do my own as I was a bit worried that I wouldn’t recognise myself and being a pale girly I was worried I’d look too dark. I am absolutely OBSESSED with how the trial went Sam is the most lovely person I instantly felt so comfortable with her. She is so good at what she does. The confidence I feel once finished is insane, but also the advice and info she provides in terms of products she uses and recommends. 100% would book for even just glam makeup.

Sam is AMAZING not only with makeup but a real genuine soul who goes above and beyond for her clients. Today was my wedding day and she came into the studio at 6:30am to ensure I made it to the registry office on time and looking fabulous. The makeup look was perfect, I felt so gorgeous & she just knows what’s right for your desired look but also bearing in mind your facial features. She’s not afraid to be honest (I value greatly) & doesn’t go OTT if that’s not the look you want. She’s super versatile & she’s done my makeup 3 times now, I just keep returning. 5 stars all the way ⭐️⭐⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sam was absolutely amazing!!! so much more than just a makeup artist. She kept us calm, organised, and brought such a positive, joyful energy to the morning. She was like a ray of sunshine, chatting with us, calming any nerves, and making the whole experience so special. Her makeup skills are flawless, and she didn’t let us leave until every last detail was perfect. She made sure we looked and felt our best, and I honestly think choosing Sam was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding morning. We couldn’t have looked this glam and beautiful without you! Thank you x
