Big Love From Me

Hey Gorgeous,

I’m Zoe, an inclusive wedding makeup artist and educator based in sunny Southend-on-Sea, Essex.

 

Since 2011, I’ve been creating fresh, flawless makeup looks that enhance your natural beauty, not mask it.

 

My Story

My love for makeup began when I was five, performing as a competitive Ballroom and Latin dancer for over 20 years. Back then, makeup was about transformation. It gave me confidence, helped me express myself, and became a form of empowerment.

 

In 2011, I trained to become a Makeup Artist at the London College of Fashion and completely fell in love. Now, I use those same tools to help others feel incredible in their own skin.

 

Why Choose Me

I bring positivity, warmth, and a calming presence to every booking. I’m friendly, approachable, and always smiling, and I genuinely love creating a relaxed, feel-good atmosphere.

 

I’m also a Reiki practitioner, which helps me hold space in a way that feels grounding and nurturing, especially on big emotional days like weddings.

 

Most of my clients come to me for that fresh, effortless, natural soft glam look: polished skin, soft definition, and makeup that never feels heavy or caked on. I’ll help you feel confident and comfortable, with a flawless finish that still looks like you.

If you want to look like yourself on a really, really good day, I’ve got you.

And if you want glitter, you know I’ll bring it ✨

 

Education & Empowerment

With over 23 years in education, I now run Beginner Makeup Masterclasses for adults and teens across Essex. These inclusive, hands-on sessions help you learn to work with your own features and fall in love with makeup again.

These classes are open to every age, face, and identity because makeup is for everyone.

 

Sustainability & Conscious Beauty

I’m working towards a more ethical and eco-conscious kit, using brands like Tropic Skincare and Charlotte Tilbury, and offering an eco-friendly Glitter Bar for parties and events.

While I still use some MAC Cosmetics for their colour range and performance, I’m always reviewing and refining my kit to balance professional results with conscious choices.
