Full Description
At Makeup by Lauren Poole we want to ensure that as you walk down the aisle you feel the perfect, flawless version of yourself. We achieve this by working closely with you from the moment you get in contact with us.
In our initial call we will discuss the looks that you have in mind and any concerns you might have.
We will then arrange a preview of your wedding look through a trial at our dedicated makeup studio just outside of Manchester. The preview is just like trying dresses, we will make changes until you are completely happy that the look we have created is perfect for you.
After the preview we will work with you as closely as you want us to up to your wedding day. We will even liaise with your other chosen suppliers, should you want us to, to make sure that the hours before your vows run like clock work to a schedule you have approved.
On the day itself we will come to your chosen venue and work with you (and your bridal party) and recreate your perfect look. We bring the studio to you so you don't have to worry about a thing. We also come armed with a few non makeup essentials, a sewing kit for example, that we have learnt over time are often useful on a wedding morning!
Relax, we've got it covered.

Amazing
Lauren is an amazing make up artist. She created beautiful looks for myself, 3 bridesmaids and even squeezed my mum in last min. She put me completely at ease and tweaked my look on the day from the trial so it was perfect for me.

You did an incredible job.
I honestly can't thank you enough for how brilliant you were - right from the beginning bearing with me as we did not one... but two make up trials! And then just being utterly fantastic on the wedding day itself. I was so happy with the final look we created, it was just perfect (and lasted so well!!!) I didn't take it off and still looked amazing in the morning haha! The girls, Catherine and Abbie looked so sooo beautiful too, they were so pleased!

Lauren was amazing!
I love my wedding make up as well as the bridesmaids. She worked so well with my mum and mother in law's requests and added a little bit of sparkle to my flower girl. She helped keep my wedding morning so relaxed. She knew what worked well for each person in my party, especially as we were not all big make up wearers. I would highly recommend Lauren!! Thanks again.

Lauren is really talented - I was so impressed
She understood exactly what I wanted and ensured I still looked like me on my wedding day. She did such a great job, I was sad to take my makeup off at the end of the day! Lauren is lovely and friendly too and fitted in nicely with the calm, getting ready atmosphere before the wedding.

Thank you so much for the fab makeup.
The makeup was everything I had hoped for and more (eyelashes lasted a couple of days too ... bonus) the girls and mum were all thrilled on how you transformed them too. Thank you once again lovely and very talented lady.

On the months before your wedding make sure you are kind to yourself and your skin. Drink lots of water and moisturise everyday.
How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?
As an experienced makeup artist I have seen most potential problems on a wedding morning. With experience comes calm and a makeup bag filled with some non makeup additions like, a sewing kit (I have sewn brides into their gowns once or twice), scissors, paracetamol and more.
