Becky did my makeup on my wedding day and I could not recommend her enough. When I had my first trial with Becky she was able to work out pretty quickly the sort of look I wanted even though I didn't even know myself and it was incredible how she did it. Becky is the nicest individual and honestly not only made me feel beautiful on my wedding day but added to the entire atmosphere of the morning. Between doing my bridesmaids makeup and my own, Becky was still able to be a huge part of the morning adding laughs and also making everything calm and relaxed. My makeup was flawless and remained that way all night, my bridesmaids and mother also looked perfect. Thank you Becky for not only doing my makeup but genuinely being such a huge part of my special day and adding to those special memories xx

Becky did the most beautiful job on my make up for my wedding day in July. She listened to exactly what I had in mind and went above and beyond my expectations. She was also lovely company to have around on the morning of the wedding. I would definitely reccomend! Thank you again Becky x

I can not rate Becky highly enough. She did prom make up for my daughter and her friends and they were all delighted with the outcome. Becky is extremely professional but lovely and human with it. I guarantee she will not only make you look gorgeous she’ll make you feel special too! 5 ⭐️

What an absolute pleasure of a lady to meet. You transformed me into someone I didn’t even know existed. You helped me accentuate my features with the exact look I was going for. Becky booked me in at short notice and willing to rush from one place to the other in time. I was amazed at how wonderfully talented Becky could be in under an hour!! I received so many wonderful compliments on my evening out last night and I just can’t thank you enough. Prices extremely reasonable and I even received a money off promotion that Becky was running throughout January! If I find myself in Brighton again for an event I will certainly know who to call. Thank you once again for listening to everything I wanted and also for just being lovely on the evening. Becky even asked me to let her know how I get on with my up and coming surgery. A truly lovely lady inside and out!

Sammie and Bex did a fantastic job with my wedding hair and makeup. Not only are they highly professional, they made me feel completely at ease and the wedding preparations were a relaxed and enjoyable part of the wedding day. Thankyou so much for making me feel like a princess on my big day ! I’d have no hesitation in recommending you to others, you really do work magic with a smile and a laugh along the way

I met Becky through a friend for her hen party make up and could see how talented she is. I booked her for my wedding party of my self my mum and 6 bridesmaids. It was a tight schedule but she made it work even with a wasp attack on the morning 🙈. I had a trial before hand where Becky came to my home and was very happy with the results. On the wedding day Becky was very helpful and friendly, had a laugh with the whole bridal party and didnt leave until I practically went down the aisle for last minute top ups. I was over the moon with my selves and all my parties make up and couldn't recommend her enough. Thank you Becky x

I will never be able to put into words how amazing Becky is. From day one at my trial it was like I had known her for years. She is extremely kind, gentle, calm and is absolutely amazing at her job. I trusted her 100% to make me into the bride I had always imagined. On the wedding day she was incredible and my make up was perfect. I had so many compliments and it stayed on all night. I would a million times over recommend Becky and if I could do it all again I would pick her in a heartbeat. Xxx
Karla Smith
I cannot thank Becky enough for our flawless makeup on myself and my bridesmaid on my wedding day we had comments all day on how lovely it was and it looked as good at the end of the evening as it did at the beginning. Becky is amazing at what she does she is such a lovely lady and so easy to talk to it was a pleasure to have her spend the morning with us and I would highly recommend her
Thank you Becky xxx
Kayleigh Adams
Becky is the most amazing make up artist and I couldn’t of picked a better person. I knew from when we first met that I was going to book her because we got on so well. She is so lovely and made me feel at ease on my wedding day. She even went the extra mile and touched up my bridesmaids make up from the strong wind and rain.
I would highly recommend Becky, not only is she a very talented make up artist but she is genuine and very professional. All my bridesmaids mentioned how impressed they were and all said they would book Becky if they were to get married.
Thank you so much for making my day that extra special, it meant so much more than you know.
Danni Greenman
Becky was diligent and fantastic with my wedding makeup she helped me achieve the perfect look and I felt really beautiful with the tones she chose for me! I don't normally wear much make up so I knew I wanted a natural face of make up for the wedding and she completely delivered, she stayed around longer than needed to adjust any make up and help me out if needed!
Such a sweetheart and would TOTALLY recommend!
Becci Kemp
Becky was not only our makeup artist for our wedding, but also a guest so her morning was very hectic! She’s the most lovely, professional, kind and likeable person you’ll ever meet, she’s absolutely incredible at what she does! My bridal makeup was just perfect, I felt so beautiful and the makeup lasted all day - even after a night of dancing!! Myself, my bridesmaids, my mum and mother in law were all so so happy with how our makeup turned out for my big day. I would recommend Becky to anyone - she’s incredible!
Tammy Powell

Chantel Lineham
I couldn’t of chosen a better make up artist to do our mums wedding. Becky delivered an outstanding service and individually tailored each of our make up to exactly how we wanted it. My make up was everything I expected and more, it was perfect. You are so very talented and we cannot thank you enough!
Genevieve Wahbe
Becky did my make up yesterday for a special birthday celebration. Her work is amazing, I had great comments all night and didn’t want to take it off at the end of the evening. She did exactly what I was looking for. I’ve booked her for two further special occasions and I’m sure they’ll be many more. Can’t recommend her highly enough.
Jennie Barnes
Becky did my make up for a birthday night out. She was an absolute delight from start to finish. Lots of information about the products she was using which I really appreciated. It was evident from the start that she knows her stuff, advice given about colours and effects but always making it clear it was my choice. She was friendly, interesting and knowledgeable. The end result...amazing!! Even if I do say so myself, I looked so good. I did not what to take it off at the end of the night. I cannot recommend Becky highly enough.
Farah Lineham
Absolutely incredible! - couldn’t fault a thing, just what I wanted! lasted all day & evening! Thank you so much xxx
Lisa Staples
Becky was our makeup artist for my wedding . She took time to understand exactly what I wanted and my make up was natural and radiant! My mum & bridesmaid were also over the moon with their makeup! Thank you Becky for helping to make a perfect day!
Saskia Rebecca Cole
Becky is amazingly talented! She did my make up for a party at Christmas time and I absolutely loved the result! She got the look down to a tee and I got so many compliments on my make up that evening. I’ve booked in for Becky to do my make up for a couple of weddings later this year! Highly recommend for a professional and friendly service x
Anna Russell
Becky was amazing! She did mine and my bridal parties make up for my wedding and she was incredible. Her positive nature and kindness put us all at ease instantly. Becky was professional and understanding from day one. She listened to what i wanted and didn't make me feel uncomfortable or force me go out of my comfort zone. I cannot recommend Becky enough and I wish her all the best with everything. Thank you again so so much for making me look so lovely on my special day!!!!
Susannah Lurie
Tinted moisturizer and some mascara is about as far as it goes with make up for me. I was so anxious about make up for my wedding day. Becky had been recommended to me. Going to meet her, I was very nervous! The minute I saw her - I just KNEW that Becky was brilliant. Not only did you make me feel so at ease instantly Becky with your warm and caring nature, you really listened to how I saw my make up for my special day. You guided me so well. Your experience is incredible.
When it came time for my first trial - I LOVED the way that you started with the 'bare minimum' as you called it. My confidence soared when I looked in the mirror. And it was so terrific that we then 'built' from there. I just hadn't wanted to look like anyone other than me. That phrase - that you Sammie Chard used - 'our job is to make you the best version of yourself.' You achieved that effortlessly. I felt so glamorous - yet felt so natural.
My sister was so thrilled with the make-up you did for her, as was my friend. And my 12 year old bridesmaid who had very definite ideas about her make up before you met her, as you know! - yet with one simple brush stroke - you had her under the 'Becky Howie spell!!!' She adored her make-up!
I know I will be back to see you and Sammie Chard, Becky! However, for now, I just want to say a huger than huge thank you from the bottom of my heart. I never ever thought I could look like that!
There is no question - if you are looking for a make-up specialist - yet one who truly knows her craft - it simply has to be Becky Howie!
Sending much much love to you Becky -

Hanna Louise
Becky did our make up for my wedding on Saturday and she is so talented! We were all so pleased with how it looked and it lasted all day with only minimal touch ups required! Becky also helped lace up my dress which was a mammoth task and I don’t think we could have done it without her! Thanks so much! Also had so much fun getting ready as both Becky and Sam who did our hair are just lovely! Highly recommend! Xx
Julia Carleysmith
Becky did a fantastic job doing my make up and some of that of my bridesmaids. She was super flexible in booking in a last minute rehearsal, and a delight to work with throughout. She listened to what I wanted, and interpreted that to create a look that was fresh and natural, but also glam! Becky was friendly and professional, and a delight to have around on the morning of our wedding. Thank you Becky!
Nicola Stedman
Wonderful Becky did my wedding make up two weeks ago. She is such a talented lady and from the moment we met when she came to do my wedding trial a few months ago I knew I was in safe hands for my big day. Becky is such a lovely lady, putting me at ease and making me look and feel fabulous. She also did my mum and best friend’s make up on the day and both were over the moon with their make up. In fact my friend said that Becky was ‘the best make up artist’ she has ever had and she’s had a few! My mum ‘s favourite part of my wedding was the hair and make up session in the morning. We had so much fun and a lot of that was down to Becky and the equally fabulous Sammy Chard of http://youreventstylist.co.uk/
Lillie Eaton
Becky did my makeup for my birthday and I absolutely loved it! She’s so friendly and I felt really comfortable with her! Thank you so much! 💜
Emily Manning
Becky did my makeup for my wedding earlier this month and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough! I’m not massively experienced with makeup but she offered great advice and put me at ease immediately. My skin is naturally oily so after my trial I asked for a little more control in that area, on the day itself, and Becky worked her magic! I had a glow without being oily for the entire day and night, no touch ups needed - I didn’t think it was possible!! She was fantastic on the morning itself too, such a calm presence, it felt like I had another friend in the room. I felt amazing and Becky I can’t thank you enough! Xx
Charni Minchin
I booked Becky to do my make up for my hen party in Brighton. She was so so lovely and made me feel comfortable. She worked absolute wonders and everyone commented on how lovely my make up looked! If I lived closer she would be my go to! If your looking for a make up artist I couldn’t recommend her enough! Xx
Amy Zivilik-Firth
Becky did both mine and my wife’s makeup for our wedding and she was absolutely amazing!
From putting us both at ease on the morning to ensuring we both had the exact look we wanted, she put us first and was so friendly and warm!
I would recommend Becky to anyone needing someone they can trust on their wedding day!
Jo Bishop
For my wedding Becky did the make up for me, my bridesmaid, my mum and my nan. She was utterly amazing - professional, approachable and did the most amazing job. My makeup lasted all day and all night and I felt like the best version of myself.
I can not recommend her highly enough!
Samantha Harris
I can’t recommend Becky highly enough, she was brilliant in every way! Her make up skills are amazing and I would definitely be using her again for other events!
Katie Mamoany
After having a disastrous make up trial with a different artist the day before my wedding in February Becky luckily had a rare free Saturday and didn't hesitate to step in and help. She did mine, my 4 bridesmaid and my mums make up with no trial and met us on the morning of the wedding - and we were all over the moon (so much so that my sister booked her on the spot for her wedding) . It was exactly what we wanted and lasted all day and night. Such a lovely lady too who made us all feel at ease from any pre wedding nerves! I'd recommend to anyone. Thankyou so much x
Laura
Massive thanks to the kind, lovely and hugely talented Becky Howie for my stunning show day makeup.. her passion for what she does shines so brightly and she literally transformed my face!! The last time I felt so radiant was on my wedding day!!

Yasmin Petrocco
Everyone complimented my makeup and I got best makeup of the night award!! Award goes to you!!
Emily Hall
I had Becky do mine, my bridesmaids' and my mum's makeup for my wedding. I couldn't have chosen a better person! We arranged a trial which was really useful as it made it easier on the day and we knew what to expect. We were all so happy with our look on the day, it was classy and not too over the top, it stayed on perfectly for the whole day and evening. Becky is so professional but really friendly at the same time. We all felt really comfortable having her there on the morning of the wedding, as well as her friend Katie who helped, she did an excellent job too! I would highly recommend Becky to anyone looking for a friendly and high-quality service. Thank you!
Amy Wilson
Becky did my makeup for a bodybuilding show in Brighton and WOW. I have never felt so pretty. She went out of her way to make the service convenient for me and I couldn't recommend her highly enough.
Gemma Jolly
Becky did my hair and makeup on my wedding day and also did my mother's hair and makeup! I had a trial which was great, she was really understanding and took on board the look I was going for, I felt so relaxed around her I knew she would be perfect on the morning of my wedding! On the day itself Becky made me, my mum and bridesmaids feel so relaxed. She is very professional and so easy to get along with. She leaves plenty of time for you to have a break as and when you need and also just to enjoy your wedding morning with your family and friends! The hair and makeup itself was just breathtaking, my mum was so pleased with hers! My hair stayed in place all day and my makeup was beautiful and flawless, stayed on perfectly and i didn't want to take it off at the end of the day. I had so many lovely comments from everyone too! I would definitely recommend Becky Howie for hair and makeup for any special occasion, thank you again!
Jenna Smith
Becky has done my makeup a couple of times now for all different occasions and every single time I love it so much! She is so talented and professional, I would highly recommend Becky to anyone!
Jade Power
She is the Bomb! Unbelievably talented.. when I get married one day too, I'd only trust Becky!!!!
Nina Loversidge
Becky did my makeup for my sister, Josie's wedding on Saturday - I rarely wear makeup and only wanted my eyes done. They looked lovely and it was just what I wanted! Becky was very professional and explained what was going on - handy for someone who doesn't know much about makeup! Thank you :)
Lara Hemsley
"I just wanted to thank you for doing my hair and make up on my wedding day. You were lovely and a really calming influence on the day, everyone commented how lovely the finished result was. I am extremely picky and quite confident doing my own make up usually so it needed to be a high standard for me...and it was! It lasted all day too which was great. In fact the videographer and one of my friends have asked for your details for their own weddings next year,which says it all really!"
Lara Hemsley
Thank you so much for your hard work. The makeup and hair was absolutely amazing and I'm so happy that I chose you to do it for me. The videographer lady asked me for your details afterwards as her son id getting married next year and she said it was the nicest work she had seen, which is a massive compliment! If you need me to do any reviews I'd be more than happy to!
Kirsty Riddle
"So I had `becky to do my makeup for my first show in October. There really is only one word for it... Amazing! As you can probably imagine, being my first show I was extremely nervous, and probably a little over excited, so the thought of having to try and do my own makeup and make it look vaguely like I had tried to make an effort was a hard task when all I could think about was what pose I was meant to be doing when I stepped on stage and what way I was meant to be looking!
Becky took the stress out of everything and was so professional! She understood the look I wanted and 100% achieved it! I felt amazing and glamorous. She also helped with my nerves a little as well, which all helps when you're about to step on stage half naked in front of an awful lot of people!
I loved Becky's work so much I have since been in contact with Becky to talk about her hopefully doing my makeup and all of my bridal party's makeup for my wedding next year! I will also without question be using Becky's services again for any future competitions! Thank you for making me look and feel amaizng Becky!"
Jana Krajhanzlova
"Makeup and hair from Becky were both amazing. I felt like a fitness queen! She looked after me very well, she always took care to make sure that I was happy with everything she was putting on my hair or face and she made sure that I looked beautiful and I did. I am definitely recommending her to everyone!"
Karen Brazier
"Having never had my makeup done professionally before I had no idea what to expect or what colours to choose for my skin tone especially for a show. Becky was extremely professional and made me feel very comfortable. She advised me on everything from what base foundation to eye shadow to compliment me under the lights. My makeup looked amazing all day. Full credit to Becky and I would thoroughly recommend her services."
Lorraine Gray
"Becky is an amazing makeup artist, making me look fantastic at a time when I was beyond stressed! She put me at ease and helped calm me down, whilst working her magic!! Thank you, you do an amazing job!"
Charlotte Isaacs
"Becky was amazing from the start, speedily replying to my enquiry for my bridal make up. Becky's make up artistry skills are second to none, I absolutely loved how she listened to what I wanted for my bridal make up and offered her professional opinion where necessary. I couldn't be more pleased with the wonderful overall looks that she created for both myself, my two bridesmaids and my mum. Thank you so much again Becky, for being truly excellent at what you do!"
Becky Hewitt
"Becky is wonderful, I couldn't recommend her enough. After several really awful trials which left me feeling anxious about what I was going to look like on the day, I found Becky. She put me at ease instantly, listened to my vague idea of what I wanted and managed to translate that into wonderful makeup; flawless skin, natural look, beautiful eyes. She really took her time in the trial to make sure I was happy with what she was doing.
On the day I didn't need to worry about a thing, Becky helped keep me calm and relaxed. Even when things went wrong with my eyelashes and hair (which she hadn't done) she was able to offer solutions and get things fixed. She hung around right until the very end to make sure that I left with my makeup perfect. I couldn't have asked for any more.... thank you Becky."
Debbie Leslie
"Thank you Becky for a fantastic lesson. Your skill and knowledge coupled with your warm and friendly personality gives you a natural talent for teaching. I was so amazed at looks that could be achieved just by using the makeup I already own to its full advantage. I particularly loved learning how to apply my eye makeup in a way that could so easily go from a day to evening look with very little effort. The face sheet aid memoir is a great idea, full of notes and tips. Brilliant. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone."
Penelope Howie
"I really enjoyed the experience of having a lesson with Becky, I was a bit apprehensive at first as I didnt want to find out that I had been doing it wrong after all these years, as makeup is such a personal thing and your style changes with your age. We had such a fun couple of hours going through my vast mix of products and brushes which was dwindled down eventually to the bare minimum. I now feel much more confident about applying makeup for different occassions in a more proffessional way and I have saved a fortune as I dont need to buy vast amounts of unnecessary products. Thanks Becky you are amazing!"
Clare Lambert
"Stage makeup is so much more dramatic and bold than my normal day-to-day or evening looks. So I asked Becky to help make sure I looked as glamorous as possible on stage. She was super helpful - I didn't have a clear idea of what I really wanted and she made insightful suggestions, considering my face shape, bikini, and overall look that I wanted. Having a little 'pampering' gave me extra confidence, and created a bit of an oasis of calm (backstage can be chaotic with girls getting ready). I have no hesitation in recommending Becky to anyone competing, and am already booking in with her for my next competition. I just wished she lived closer to me so I could get her to do my makeup more often!"
Geane Freitas
"It was my first UKBFF bikini competition and to be honest I was pretty nervous. After a long preparation involving hard training and dieting, the time to show results had arrived and all details such as bikini, hair, nails and make up became really important. Fortunately, I didn't have to worry about my make up. Becky is such an amazing professional, highly qualified and so gentle. I definitely recommend her services. She created a perfect look for me, following my natural features and made me feel confident and powerful to step on the stage. I won 1st place in my category and I'm looking forward to meet her again at Nationals. Thank you Becky!!"
Alison Baker
"Becky was absolutely brilliant, she did everything I asked for and more, my bridesmaids looked beautiful and my mum and my own makeup was fanstastic! She was so friendly and just brilliant!"
Matthew Ring
I always enjoy working with Becky. Her natural ability teamed with a great technical understanding and professional attitude make her an asset to every shoot. She is great at assimulating all the ideas I have and forming coherent makeup designs that fir the brief perfectly.
Becky also has a great understanding of photo shoot ettiquette and is always comfortable conversing and interacting with everyone on set. A true pleasure to work with.
Naomi Sweeney
"I just want to thank you so much for making me look and feel so beautiful on my wedding day! Thank you for listening to what I wanted I felt so comfortable in my own skin! Plus you were just so lovely, you made me feel so relaxed on one of the most scariest but happiest days of my life!"
Annabelle Rose Le Khan
"After having a couple of really unsuccessful trials, where my makeup was disastrous, and hair quite amateur - I was losing hope of finding the right person for my wedding day! At my final bridal fitting, I was recommended Becky Howie, who styles the Augusta Jones collection. I contacted her that evening and was grateful she could fit me in for a trial on the Saturday. Becky listened to my ideas for my hair, and was incredibly enthusiastic. The trial went really well and after reviewing photos of my hair, and deciding on a few changes, Becky was happy to adapt. On my wedding day, Becky arrived early and was extremely calm and collected. I trusted her completely to make me look my best, and she did a fabulous job. She started with my hair which was a mixture of boho chic meets 30s vintage.. the inticate plaits and flowers, with my headband were a beautiful look.
I had recently been to MAC for a bridal makeover, and purchased a decent collection of products. Becky was happy to use my own MAC products that I had chosen, and really listened to how I wanted to look. I was so pleased with my makeup - flawless skin, but natural looking. Flirty eyes and pale peach lips and cheeks. As I wasn't wearing any jewellery, it was really important that my face and hair were perfectly done. I was so impressed with Becky - for her age she is amazing. So friendly and personable, and really talented. She obviously takes great pride in her work, and cares about each individual she works with. I would not hisitate to recommend her to any friends/colleagues looking for a makeup artist, and would certainly book her again if I had a party or function where I wanted to look fabulous!!"
Jenny Howden
"Becky was amazing on our wedding day. I couldn't have wished for a better makeup artist and hair stylist. She listened to everything we asked for, made everyone at ease and made the day even more special by the amazing results. Everyone felt a million dollars on the day, thank you Becky!"
Rebecca Saunders
"From the moment I got in touch with Becky to the moment she left me as a bride ready to get married, Becky exuded professionalism and confidence. Her friendly manner meant she was a pleasure to deal with in the lead up to the wedding and to have around on the morning itself. She made sure I was totally happy with the end result and I couldn't have been happier with how my hair looked. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Becky to any bride to be".
Toby Peyton Harrison
"Becky was always timely and professional with communication leading up to the shoot and at the shoot itself. SHe had a very positive attitude and was accomodating to direction as well as shring her own ideas; she worked very well to the brief. Becky had to work with a shy and inexperienced model and handled the situation extremely well, and made the model feel at ease".
Augusta Jones Bridal
"Becky Howie's keen eye and steady hand work their magic to turn beautiful models into blushing brides. She brings her professionalism, speed and calm spirit to each shoot, putting the models at ease. She listens carefully to what you want, then does her homework so she always arrives fully prepared, inspired and ready to go. We simply love working with her".
