Occasional Hair & Makeup by Marina
About us
Hi, my name is Marina! I am a busy "all in one" versatile lady like many other mums.
I am a mum to three beautiful young children who are my purpose in life, and I am extremely lucky to be able to express my passion for hair and makeup in my business. I love all things beautiful and I love making people happy!
I specialize in occasional makeup and hairstyling and I thrive on making a difference that allows women feel great about their appearance! All my clients are beautiful in their own ways, there are some who know it and those who don't. I have come across so many ladies who I would call stunning but unfortunately due to their own insecurities (which I know us women all seem to have!) and bad life experience they just can not see it. My biggest job purpose is to make that beauty more visible to them. And when I manage to achieve that, I feel I can fly.
I have a signature style that you would be able to recognize in most of my portfolio pictures. Although I am very versatile and listen very carefully to my clients and can create any look they desire for their special occasion, my signature style is mainly for those, who are not sure what they want and they put their trust into my hands.
My Makeup Signature Style:
1) Natural looking colors
2) Younger and brighter facial appearance
3) Harmony of facial features. As we are all so very unique, we all need different enhancements and corrections. To give you the simplest example would be to describe my own makeup tricks. My eyes are small, my face is round, skin has blemishes, pores and scarring, my nose is no longer perfect! What I do with makeup: I make my eyes appear bigger, my face look slimmer, my skin smooth and glowing, and my nose defined into a more symmetrical shape. Get the picture? My older clients claim they look at least 10 years younger with my signature makeup (I agree) and all my clients wow on the difference my makeup makes to their appearance (in a very positive way, no shockers)
I do traditional makeup as... show more I strongly believe it is much more pleasant and kind to the skin, and most importantly it gives better coverage.
My makeup kit is huge and filled with a number of various highest quality makeup brands. My kit is geared up for sensitive skin too. I ensure that all my brushes and tools are cleaned well after every client so you will never have to worry about the hygiene when it comes to my makeup.
I also fix bridal makeup against many natural makeup disasters, such as smudging, tears and humidity. It gives you many hours of fun with no touch ups necessary.
My Hair Signature style
Just like with makeup, I can create pretty much any hairstyle whether it is my own design or replication. I can fix your clip in hair extensions and other hair accessories needed for your special day. I ensure durability when it comes to hairstyling, and occasionally may advise clients against some styles that they choose. For example, heavy long hair, if left down, will not hold a wave even with the strongest of hairsprays. I would then suggest curls instead but would leave the decision down to you.
My signature hairstyle is perfection at its best! No grips or pins on show, beautiful lines and maximum comfort. I ensure you look beautiful from every angle, not just the back!
If you book Hair Styling with me, for best results please ensure that you do not wash or straighten your hair on the day. Before the appointment ask me for advice on whether a certain hairstyle would be suitable for your hair thickness and length.
If you would like to make a booking with me for your special occasion please do feel free to contact me. I would be honored to take part in making you look your best for your special day! <3 show more
