Jo Watts - Makeup Artist

A huge thank you to lovely Abi for such a kind review 🤍

Abi told me from the start that she doesn’t really wear makeup and wanted everything to feel natural and subtle — still completely like herself.

That’s always my focus.

At your preview we take our time, talk through what you’re comfortable with and build your look gently so nothing feels too much. Then on the wedding morning, it all feels familiar… just softer skin, brighter eyes and a little extra radiance.

The best part is seeing you smile at the mirror because you still look like you — just feeling your absolute best.

It also means so much to me helping the morning feel calm and run smoothly for you and your bridal party. Being part of that atmosphere is just as important to me as the makeup itself.

If you don’t usually wear makeup but still want to feel your best on your wedding morning, I’m always happy to talk things through with you 🤍

Happy Valentine’s Day lovelies 🥰

A little reminder — love isn’t only about big gestures 🤍

Sometimes it’s about slowing down.
Breathing deeper.
Giving your body a moment to soften.

Yesterday I had the loveliest body and face lymphatic and I didn’t realise how much I needed it.

I feel lighter — physically and emotionally.
Calmer than I have in a long time.
Slower, more grounded… and glowing in that quiet, rested way.

It reminded me how much we carry without even realising — especially in busy or emotional seasons.

However you’re spending today — with your partner, your friends, your family, or simply taking a moment for yourself — I hope you allow yourself space to soften.

Self-care doesn’t have to be dramatic.
Sometimes it’s simply giving yourself permission to pause 🤍

Makeup has always been about creating a safe, supportive space for my brides.

A space where you don’t need to rush, perform, or feel like you have to be anything other than yourself.

Wedding mornings can be full of emotion — excitement, nerves, happy tears, and quiet moments in between. My role has never been just about how you look, but about how you feel while you’re getting ready.

I believe feeling calm, listened to, and cared for shows through in the skin, in the way you hold yourself, and in how you experience the day.

Everything I offer is guided by that belief — gentle, considered, and centred around you 🤍

My gorgeous bride Abi 🥰

She wanted makeup that felt natural, fresh and her — and I think we nailed it.

We kept things soft and glowing, focusing on radiant skin, using flawless face base and bb cream. Teamed with a hint of blush and that lovely rosy lip by to pull it all together.

Abi’s look is such a lovely reminder that bridal makeup doesn’t have to be over the top — it’s all about enhancing what’s already there and making you feel amazing.

If you’re dreaming of a look that feels like you, but wedding-day ready, I’d love to help you create it. Let’s make your bridal morning as calm and special as it deserves to be.

✨ Freckles & glass skin ✨

This look is all about letting the skin breathe and the natural features shine through. Soft, radiant, and effortlessly beautiful — like your skin, but with that lit-from-within glow we all love. 🤍

Makeup doesn’t need to be heavy to be impactful. It’s about choosing the right textures and tones that enhance you, not mask you. 🫶

If you’re dreaming of skin-focused makeup that feels light, looks fresh, and makes you feel amazing from the inside out — I’ve got you 💫

✨ Bridal beauty is all about celebrating what makes each person unique! ✨

It’s so important to me that, like my beautiful brides, every bridesmaid feels amazing and confident on the wedding day too. In this bridal party, there was such a lovely mix of individuality — some of these gorgeous girlies prefer no makeup or a light touch, while others love a bit more. Also some with more sensitive or problem-prone skin, (not that you can tell!) Taking all of this on board, I made sure to listen to each of their needs. 🫶

Whether you’re a bride or bridesmaid, I’m here to create a look that makes you feel like the best version of yourself—whether that’s natural, radiant, or something that you always add in your daily makeup routine that we of course need to include on your special day. It’s all about you and your comfort. 💖

I always take the time to understand each person’s vision and skin needs, so everyone feels beautiful and completely themselves, just with a little extra glow. 🌟
