MAKEUP BY LAUREN JONES
​Hi, I’m Lauren – a professional makeup artist covering Essex, Suffolk and beyond, specialising in soft and flawless makeup for weddings, special events, and editorials.​ Take a look at my portfolio to get a feel for my style and see if it’s the right fit for your special day.
​
My makeup style focuses on enhancing natural beauty with a fresh, radiant finish. I aim for skin that looks healthy and glowing, using minimal product to let natural features like freckles - shine through. I keep brows soft and defined, use individual lashes to help lift the eyes and a touch of blush for a natural flush. It's all about creating a polished appearance that still feels like you.

FAQ
Do you offer bridal trials?
Yes, a 2-3 hour trial is included in the price for the bridal makeup package as I think it is super important to test out your look, discuss your preferences and make sure everything is perfect before your big day!
When should I book my trial?
I recommend booking your trial 1–3 months before your wedding date, ideally once you’ve chosen your dress and have some ideas for your overall style.
How far in advance should I book you for my wedding?
Most brides book 6–12 months in advance. Peak wedding season (May–September) fills up quickly, so the sooner the better! I may be able to accommodate last minute weddings depending on my availability.
