The face behind the brush
Hey, Wifey To Be! I'm Karen...
In early 2023, I swapped the wild beauty of Scotland for Cornwall’s sandy shores—and I’ve never looked back.
The sea air, slower pace, and those golden sunsets (often with a little rum in hand!) completely stole my heart.
I’ve been in the beauty industry for over 25 years, and along the way I’ve spent 10 years teaching makeup at college, worked with incredible clients, collaborated with iconic fashion brands, and became a Charlotte Tilbury-Accredited Pro Artist back in 2016. My work has graced glossy magazines and editorial shoots—but my heart has always belonged to bridal.
From our very first conversation, your experience is calm, considered, and entirely about you. I work intentionally unhurried, creating space to breathe, ask questions, and feel truly supported.
On your wedding morning, I bring quiet confidence, expert hands, and thoughtful attention—anticipating your needs before you even have to ask. Many of my brides say the calm I bring sets the tone for the entire day.
My approach is refined, reassuring, and completely bespoke. I combine artistry, energy, and a touch of luxury magic, allowing you to enjoy every moment—feeling radiant, confident, and utterly yourself. No rushing. No distractions. Just an elegant, seamless experience, exactly when it matters most.
