Bridal MakeUp – Fiona’s Reviews

Fiona was a dream- A DREAM!! We planned our wedding from across the pond in New York, and I felt so taken care of. She was fabulous at communicating, even with the time zone difference. I arrived in Dublin only two days before the wedding, and she was so quick to accommodate a make-up trial for me. I had a large bridal party, and Fiona brought an amazing artist to help make sure everyone was happy and feeling beautiful. Fiona knew what I wanted and my personal tastes. I have NEVER had a good make up experience until Fiona. Now I wish I could have Fiona do my make-up every day, and may just need to take a class with her next time I am in Ireland.

I came across Fiona by happenstance and from the moment we first spoke I knew just how fortunate I was. Fionas talent and diversity is unquestionable, she will make you look your very best but more then that she will make you feel beautiful. Her gift extends behond her talents and 5 stars doesn’t begin to cover how kind or amazing she really is.

From the first contact, Fiona was very pleasant to deal with; she is a very warm person and really cares about all who she works with. I had Fiona do mine, and three of my bridesmaids’ make up on my wedding day in May 2017. I can honestly say, I looked the best I ever have in all the photos. Both me and my matron of honour were concerned we would look too made up but we were delighted with how we looked on the day. It helped that Fiona really listened to what I wanted at the trial beforehand. I would highly recommend Fiona for her warmth and professionalism. I couldn’t have asked for a better person.

Delighted I chose Fiona as my Wedding day MUA. My mum, bridesmaids and I were delighted with her work. The make up was flawless and lasted all day and night and we all got so many lovely compliments. Fiona is incredibly talented and professional. She pampered us and made us all feel so relaxed the morning of the wedding. Thanks a million Fiona 🙂

Fiona is a wonderful make-up artist. Myself, my bridemaids and my mum were all truly delighted with our make-up which was perfect from that morning right through to the next! She is very professional – from my first call, through to my trial ensuring every detail was perfect, giving me great skin care advice through to the flawless make-ups, the extras the fun and the banter on the big day. I was thrilled with my choice and cannot recommend Fiona highly enough.

Fiona is a wonderful makeup artist, who is understanding, kind and professional. Her bubbly personality and caring nature instantly calmed my nerves, as well as the mothers. The entire bridal party loved Fiona’s natural makeup application. Fiona exceeded my expectations in every way!

Firstly, I have to say that Fiona is a lovely person and most importantly made myself and my wedding party feel so relaxed on the morning of my wedding. All my nerves disappeared when she arrived. She was so professional, organised and great at her job! She gave us all plenty of time to ensure everyone looked amazing. She even has cooling eye masks ready for us all to minimise eye puffiness. I had a make up trial in advance of the big day and this really helped as Fiona had tried out numerous make up looks in advance so that there was no confusion on the day. She even got me a tube of the lipstick I wore on the day so I could reapply as the day continued. I hardly recognised myself (in a good way!) and my husband’s reaction when I got to the top of the aisle is something I will never forget. My make up lasted all day and I even got a second day out of my lashes (I didn’t remove my eye make up, oops!) I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone for any occasion. My bridesmaid loved her make up so much that she booked Fiona for her own wedding a few months later!

Fiona thank you so much for the wonderful job you did on myself, my bridesmaids and my Mum on my wedding day, it was just perfect. From the moment you began your magic I just felt at ease and you brought a calmness to the morning as well as plenty of laughter which helped us all relax! You got my look spot on at the trial and I was so happy with how well it looking on the day. My wedding photos show the result of your lovely work, even after plenty of tears had been shed! I cannot recommend you enough, you are a true professional and such a sweetheart too. Michelle x

Fiona……..I would like to thank you so so so much for the make up you did for my bridal party. What can I say…….you have been so professional from start to finish. I had my trial with Fiona 2 weeks before my wedding. After having a bridal trial disaster with another make up artist I thought I would never fins someone so close to my wedding but then I found this angel Fiona. Fiona made me feel so special and understood the look I was looking for. I felt like such a princess from the day of the trial to my wedding day. She kept in contact with me at all times and kept me reassured. She is such a professional. I would highly recommend Fiona to any bride. She had a good laugh on the morning of the wedding and everyone was so happy and relaxed. I feel I have made a friend for life. Thank you for everything Fiona Xxxx

I lived in the UK at the time of my upcoming wedding in Ireland. Fiona kindly fitted me for a trial in between visits home and was highly accommodating. I explained I wanted my make up to look as natural as possible. I wanted to look as good as possible on my special day but still look like me. The morning of the wedding everyone was so relaxed and Fiona added to this with her professionalism. She did an amazing job on myself and my three bridesmaids. There was no rushing or panicking, everyone was ready on time and looked flawless. Fiona even escorted us across the road to the entrance of our venue to top up lippy and have me ready to walk down the aisle. I would highly recommend Fiona, the brands she uses are premium brands so you feel super good on that special day. Also, the little packs she gave for myself and my three bridesmaids to keep in our handbags for touch ups throughout the day were a lovely idea.

Fiona Harrison is a delight to work with, a consummate professional and a genuinely beautiful person – inside and out. Her ability to transform a nervous and excited bridal party into a polished, perfectly accentuated group of women was/is astonishing. Fiona knows exactly what it takes to give you the look you want – or, if you’re not exactly sure of the “right” look, she knows! Her demeanor is soothing, her talent is obvious and much appreciated, and we just loved being around her and her staff. We all give her an “A+”!!!

I can’t recommend Fiona enough. Most engaged, thoughtful and talented make up artist. From my initial trial to the day of the wedding Fiona was brilliant. Her make up is soft, natural but pops in wedding photos. On morning of wedding had a little rescue bag prepared for me with new mac lipstick, power and mini foundation. Things i would never have thought of. Can’t recommend Fiona enough, so much so that my sister has now booked her for her wedding in 2018!!

I found Fiona through two of my friends who used her for their weddings. Fiona is down to earth, friendly and very professional She captured exactly what I was looking for. I never had airbrush done before, but it felt so light like I wasn’t wearing any makeup yet gave great coverage. I felt like me on my wedding day, as opposed to feeling like I had a face full of makeup. All of my bridesmaids loved their makeup. One of my friends is recently engaged and has already talked about how she plans to book Fiona since she loved my makeup. Overall I had a wonderful experience, everything was effortless about the entire process – from trial to wedding day finish. Cannot recommend Fiona enough to all brides to be.

Fiona was amazing and I highly recommend her to brides to be. My makeup was flawlessy beautiful and held up perfectly all day and night through laughter, tears and lots of dancing! She is professional, organized and responsive but also so kind, funny and easy going. She has a calm relaxing demeanor that was perfect for my hectic wedding morning and you can tell she loves her job. My bridesmaids also loved their make-up – one of whom has been in four weddings recently said that she liked Fiona’s work the best and another one has booked Fiona for her own wedding next year. Book her, you will be delighted 🙂

Fiona is such an amazing person and artist. She is “The Glam Team”. She’s very professional and responsive. Having started planning the wedding in Singapore before moving to UK, she was very helpful on churning out the details. On my wedding day, she kept my whole bridal party at ease and calm. Everything was just spot on and everyone was ready ahead of schedule. I love her make-up philosophy of being a better version of yourself. The make-up is unpretentious and true to itself. Everyone just looked absolutely gorgeous. I have only heard lovely praises on how I looked that day. I highly recommend Fiona on any occasion!

Fiona came highly recommended to me and I am truly delighted she was my wedding make-up artist. I felt and looked a million dollars on the day as did my bridesmaids and my mum (who was nervous about getting her make-up done but so happy with the result). As well as gorgeous make-ups she went that extra mile and stayed with me up until the moment I left for the church and was calming and fun to be around for myself and Dad soothing the last minute nerves by teaching us a few poses for the camera’s! She is gifted and a genuinely lovely person to boot.

Fiona is absolutely brilliant. We were all so happy with her work, our makeup still looked fresh the next day! Fiona did the makeup for two weddings that I was bridesmaid for and everyone was delighted with the results. She is very professional and gives a few extra personal touches. I would definitely recommend Fiona and will definitely go to her again in the future.

Fiona done my make up for my wedding in August 2015. She had previously done my sisters wedding the year before. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She is enormously talented at what she does. And has a lovely personality to boot. She is great and keeping you calm on the morning of and on the lead up to the day. My makeup held perfectly all day in 25 degree heat. It was still perfect the next morning. It was a shame to wash it off. Any brides looking for a reliable make up artist you wouldn’t be sorry if you book Fiona.

I cannot recommend Fiona enough. As a really picky bride regarding make up, going for a natural ( but not so natural) look she perfected within minutes. I tested a few High profile make up artists and without question she had no competition. Firstly with her personal approach and ears to listen to my requirements within minutes I felt extremely comfortable and trusted her advice. On the day and still to date I get asked about my make up on the day. I couldn’t recommended her enough for any bride looking for any look. He detail and ensuring the bride and bridal party were happy and comfortable. She created an atmosphere of calm before the big walk down the aisle. Beyond my expectations.

Really great service , very friendly and happy to answer all my questions . I had a few questions on products and brushes she used which I emailed to her and she replied quickly with all the information I requested. Very happy with the makeup and she talked me through the application so I picked up lots of tips too!!
