Makeup Artist applying natural bridal makeup in London

Francesca | Hair & Makeup Artist

Hello, my name is Francesca! I’ve been working as a hair and makeup artist since 2019. My journey in the industry started in film and TV, having shows featured on Netflix, BBC, Disney Plus and Channel 4.

For the past two years I have been working in the wedding industry and I have never looked back! I’m a bridal hair and makeup artist that specialises in soft, effortlessly elegant and modern bridal hair and makeup. I LOVE a soft glam makeup and my ethos is enhance, not mask. I want you to look and feel like you on your special day!

Francesca was absolutely amazing!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup and hair stylist for my wedding. My sister, mother, and I all felt so looked after and relaxed with Francesca. Not only does Francesca have the skill and talent, she is without a doubt the loveliest person I’ve worked with! Couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you so much for making my day that much more special!!!

What must-have products can be found in your kit?

My kit must-haves would be NARS sheer glow and Dior backstage highlighter palette – love creating a soft natural glow!

What’s one of your career highlights?

Over the past five years I’ve had some very special moments from working on my first feature film to having a TV programme I worked on being BAFTA nominated. But one day I will never forget is working on my first ever wedding. The feeling of making a bride feel and look their best selves is so special. I knew from then on that I wanted to be a bridal hair and makeup artist!

What's your top tip for brides-to-be?

A top tip for brides-to-be is to build up a good skin care routine in the months leading up to the big day – working on your prep in the lead up can help leave your skin glowing for the wedding day. As well as good skin prep, working on your hair health can also help achieve that overall bridal hair and makeup look you dreamed of.

“I highly recommend Francesca for both hair & make up! She listens to what you want done and makes you feel very comfortable. Her kindness, patience and calm presence took away any stress. Would definitely go back to Francesca for any future event I have!”
