Charlie, Lucent Pro Team Member - Bridal Hair & Makeup Artist

Charlie | Hair & Makeup Artist

I want to make every client feel their most beautiful whilst also being able to recognise themselves in the mirror. I love a natural look to my makeup application and enjoy the abstract creativity of soft boho hair styles! Being a hair stylist and makeup artist allows me to express my creativity and help someone to feel their best.

I still find magic in how a few brushstrokes and clever use of colour can totally transform a face. Utilising cherry-picked products from brands such as Bobbi Brown, Charlotte Tilbury and MAC to name a few.

I am grateful to be a recommended supplier for a number of stunning venues. I have worked at many wonderful locations including Aynhoe Park, The Ritz, Hedsor House, Cliveden, Claridges & The Ned to name a few.

The personal relationships built between my clients and myself is carried through to the wedding day. I am on hand to help calm nerves and understand a bride’s needs. My aim is to make the start of your special day a happy, calm and memorable one!

You were so much more than a makeup artist and I will forever be grateful that I got to spend my morning with you. You were calming, attentive and it felt completely normal to have you with us. You kept an eye on what I was drinking, advised how to eat my lunch so I didn’t ruin my makeup and even helped with my dress when no-one could do the buttons. You gave me a look that allowed me to feel the most confident I have ever felt. You made my bridal look and the bridesmaids look exactly how I imagined and I loved looking at the photos. My mum also loved her make up and all three of them looked stunning.
