BIOGRAPHY

"I like to accentuate natural beauty and gorgeous glowing skin, leaving the bride looking beautiful and feeling confident."

I have been in the makeup industry for 15 years, working in fashion, TV and the bridal sector. My kit is entirely vegan and cruelty free and I use only products that are great for the hair and skin.

I absolutely love working with brides, being there to make them feel comfortable, relaxed and look a million dollars on their big day. It’s wonderful to be a part of someone’s special day as it is so intimate, and it is down to me to add the finishing touches.

I like to accentuate natural beauty and gorgeous glowing skin, leaving the bride looking beautiful and feeling confident when she walks down the aisle.

I have made up over 100 brides during my career, so with my experience you will be in capable hands on your big day!

Maya ensured that the getting ready process was one of the highlights of my whole day. She is adaptable, creative and great fun. I can't recommend her highly enough!

IN CONVERSATION WITH MAYA

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE PRODUCTS IN YOUR KIT?

I love good skincare and foundation. Obviously all my kit is vegan and cruelty free, so I am currently loving Weleda skin food- always a staple in my kit, it’s great for dry skin, a deep moisturise and also leaves a beautiful glow – you can’t go wrong, especially with the light moisture one.

I am also loving the new Iconic London foundations which leave a flawless, sleek and glowing finish. Perfect for that glowing bridal look.

WHAT HAVE BEEN SOME OF YOUR CAREER HIGHLIGHTS?

I have recently been published in magazines such as Harpers Bazaar, Elle & Glamour for my beauty work in the last year, plus working as an in-house makeup artist for Burberry. I have also been running huge teams of artists for large VIP events, so I think we are always evolving and moving upwards in an industry that can be quite cut throat sometimes.

WHAT DO YOU LOVE ABOUT DOING WEDDINGS?

I love making people feel good and look beautiful. I love seeing the transformation in a bride, the nerves at the beginning of the morning and then seeing their confidence bloom when they see the final look, it always makes me feel good accentuating their natural beauty and seeing it first hand.

It’s also so amazing being a part of someone’s big day, it’s so intimate and you witness all sorts of emotions, so it’s always nice to see vulnerability and the love between people.

WHAT ARE YOUR TOP TIPS FOR BRIDES-TO-BE?

Always look after your skin! eat healthily, drink less alcohol leading up to the wedding as it can dehydrate your skin, and invest in a good exfoliator. There will also always be things out of your control on the day, you cannot control the weather! try to relax and enjoy the moment.
