Madeleen Skin Makeup Hair

Thank you for making me feel welcome, special and beautiful. I needed a QUICK technique as I don't like sitting too long in front of the mirror.I thoroughly enjoyed my one-on-one makeup workshop with Madeleen. The session was practical, easy to follow, and tailored to my face, colouring, and lifestyle. I learned techniques that I can confidently recreate at home, and I left feeling more confident and excited about doing my own makeup. Madeleen explained everything so patiently and recommended products that genuinely suited my needs without any pressure. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone wanting to update their makeup routine or learn professional techniques in a relaxed and encouraging environment.

Madeleen is such a delight and makes you feel really comfortable. Baie dankie.

Madeleen is one amazing person. Highly experienced, very well skilled, kind and so soft. She is very professional. I would highly recommend Madeleen!

I loved getting my makeup done by Madeleen! Not only did my makeup look beautiful, but what stood out most to me was how comfortable she made me feel throughout the experience.Madeleen is incredibly warm, easy to talk to, and genuinely cares about the people in her chair. It’s clear that she takes pride in her work and wants her clients to look and feel their best.Thank you for your kindness and beautiful work. I would happily recommend Madeleen to anyone looking for a talented makeup artist!! 🤍

I was struggling with acne and scarring, especially around my mouth area, as well as dull skin, and wanted to improve my overall skin tone. From the start, Madeleen took the time to guide me through the process and truly understand my skin concerns. She made me feel supported, cared for, and confident in the journey. Her attention to detail and personalised approach really stood out to me.Over the past 12 months, my skin has improved so much. It now looks clearer and more even. The biggest improvement for me has been that my scars have cleared up, my breakouts are under control, and my skin is overall much brighter. What I appreciated most was Madeleen’s excellent service, regular follow-ups, and the way she consistently checked in and made sure I had everything I needed. That level of care is so refreshing.I would definitely recommend Dermexcel, not only for the results but especially because of Madeleen’s consistent, caring support and professionalism.

Today I had the privilege of spending time with a group of professionals discussing women’s pelvic health, core wellbeing, intimacy concerns, emotional wellness, and the challenges many women experience in silence.

Too many women quietly accept bladder leakage, pelvic pain, postpartum damage, changes in intimacy, or a loss of feeling at home in their bodies as something they simply have to live with.

This is just the beginning. Stay tuned as we continue these important conversations, helping to make the conversations nobody talks about feel normal, safe, and supported.

I booked Madeleen because I wanted to look polished and feel confident for my portrait shoot. Before my appointment I was feeling self-conscious about being photographed.My experience during hair and makeup: Madeleen made me feel seen, affirmed, and genuinely beautiful. The process was unhurried, personal, and deeply encouraging. I felt confident, radiant, and completely at ease.What I appreciated most was her genuine affirmation throughout the process. She has a rare gift of making you feel beautiful on the inside while she works on the outside. Every compliment she gave felt completely authentic, never forced. She also asked for a mood board beforehand and immediately understood exactly the look I was going for, which made the whole experience feel effortless and personal.My hair and makeup looked elegant and natural, and photographed beautifully. She revisited my eyes several times throughout, adding just the right amount to make them truly pop without ever looking overdone.I would recommend Madeleen to anyone who feels self-conscious in front of a camera, or anyone who wants more than just a makeup application. Someone who wants to walk into their shoot feeling genuinely beautiful and completely themselves.The experience was an absolute privilege and I would definitely book with Madeleen again without hesitation. Spending two hours with her was not only about looking good, it was a genuinely lovely, affirming experience from start to finish.She's such a lekker mens!
