About Me

Picture
Hello! And welcome to my website!

I'm Sarah, a freelance Makeup Artist based in Leeds, West Yorkshire UK, specialising in bridal, special occasion and event makeup.  My love for makeup started at a very young age; I remember asking for my first makeup set at around 3/4 years old!
Naturally artistic as a child, I discovered my strengths in painting and drawing and as a teen attended Leeds College of Art. 
​
From there, it was clear I needed to pursue a creative career. 
Through my studies I discovered a love for photography; and completed a HND in Photography and Digital Imaging.

​However, makeup was something I always gravitated towards and eventually - when working in an office job - I decided to take the plunge and study an evening class in Theatrical Hair and Media Makeup. Here I rediscovered my passion for colour, texture and ultimately transforming the human face and body.

Later, I landed an amazing opportunity working for Make Up For Ever; where I gained valuable experience working on a variety of skin tones and face shapes on a daily basis. I even had the chance to complete live body art demonstrations on counters across the UK!
​
​Now, as a freelance artist; I enjoy creating looks for a variety of occasions; whether it be bridal, proms, editorial, events, film or television. I see every client's request as a brief to work towards to create beautiful works of art!

​I truly love my job and am thankful I get to transform people and see the incredible results, not just with makeup, but with the confidence it arms people with!

Please contact me for your quote today, I look forward to meeting you!
