✨ FROM MAKEUP STRESS… TO MAKEUP JOY ✨

Reviews like this are exactly why I LOVE teaching. 🥹💕

The lovely Georgie came to me ahead of her wedding for a bespoke 4-week makeup course, with one goal — to really learn how to do her own makeup, understand what worked for her and feel confident creating beautiful looks herself.

And THIS review afterwards… 😭✨

To hear that she’s now getting so many compliments that people think her makeup has been professionally done is just AMAZING! But my favourite part?

“She’s turned it from a stress into a joy!”

That right there is what my lessons are all about. 💗

With over 20 years in the makeup industry and experience as both a professional artist and educator, my lessons aren’t about copying one look and sending you home. I want you to understand YOUR face, YOUR products and YOUR makeup.

💄 Bespoke 1:1 makeup lessons
✨ Multi-week personalised courses
👰 Pre-wedding makeup courses
💋 Beginners through to more advanced techniques
🛍️ Product & brush guidance
🥰 Relaxed, friendly, completely judgement-free tuition

Whether you’ve worn makeup for years but never quite mastered it, you’ve lost confidence, your skin or features have changed, or you simply want to finally learn how to make your makeup work for YOU 👍 we can create a lesson or course around exactly what you want to achieve.

Georgie, you were an absolute joy to teach and I’m SO proud of how far you came in those four weeks. Thank you for trusting me and for leaving such a gorgeous review. 🥹💕

If you’d love your own bespoke makeup lesson or personalised course at NikMakeupArtist, pop me a message with what you’d love to learn and I can recommend the best option for you. 💄✨

A little later than planned sharing this one… it’s been another whirlwind week with an incredible FOUR weddings, but this beautiful morning was far too special not to share. 🤍✨

Huge congratulations to the new Mr & Mrs Johns! 💍

We had the absolute pleasure of spending Laura’s wedding morning at home in Glasgow, creating her dream bridal hair and makeup before making her way to one of my all-time favourite venues, the breathtaking Coats in Paisley.

What made this wedding even more special was discovering that this wasn’t actually my first time glamming this lovely group. Back in 2013, when I was just starting out on my bridal journey, I had the honour of doing Laura’s bridesmaids makeup for her maid of honour, Stacey’s, wedding. Thirteen years later, here we are again, sharing another unforgettable wedding morning together. Moments like these truly mean the world to me and remind me just how privileged I am to be part of so many families’ most treasured memories. 🥹🤍

Laura, thank you for trusting me once again. It was an absolute joy to pamper you, share in all the excitement and help you feel your most beautiful as you became Mrs Johns.

Wishing you both a lifetime filled with love, laughter, happiness and endless wonderful adventures together. Thank you for letting me be part of another chapter in your family’s story.

Congratulations once again, Mr & Mrs Johns! 🥂✨

Nik xx 🤍

What a beautiful review to wake up to after such a wonderfully busy weekend. 🥹🤍

After travelling across Scotland, leading my amazing team, working in stunning castles, going back to my home turf in glenburn, creating creative makeup looks and having the privilege of making up over 13 beautiful faces, messages like this make every early start and every mile so worthwhile.

Knowing my bride absolutely loved her makeup and that it stayed flawless all day, even on one of the warmest days of the year, is exactly why I pour my heart into every single client.

Thank you so much for trusting me with such a special part of your day. Reviews like these truly keep me going. 🫶✨

Today I hung up my bridal bag….😜🤪👀

🧜🏽‍♀️🌊✨ Back where the magic happens… and what a transformation this was! ✨🌊🫧

Two years ago, this lovely client Stephanie trusted me to create her vibrant rainbow birthday look… and today she returned with an even more magical vision. 🥹💙

This time, she wanted to become a beautiful siren for an event at Paisley Town Hall, and I couldn’t wait to bring her idea to life. From shimmering ocean skin and iridescent scales to sparkling details and a crown fit for the sea, every part of this look was designed especially for her. 👑🐚🪸

One of my favourite parts of the morning was being able to bring the salon experience to her. As she’s a wheelchair user, we created this entire look from the comfort of her favourite chair in her living room. 💙 Even her wheelchair has been beautifully decorated to continue the underwater theme, and I honestly can’t wait to see the finished photographs from the event! 🌊✨

Thank you for trusting me once again with your vision. It’s clients like you who remind me just how creative and rewarding this job really is. What a brilliant morning we had together! 🥹🩵🫧

🌊 “She wasn’t made to stay on the shore… she was born to make waves.” 🐚✨
