“Makeup made to feel good in”

Kayleigh (me!)
MAKEUP ARTIST
Makeup artist of over 10 years, London based but Kent raised. Mentor, dog mum and serial podcast listener turned Podcaster!
If I'm not doing makeup, I’m teaching it, snacking, enjoying London and probably buying sneakers (sometimes at the same time!)

Eevee
CHAIRMAN OF THE BARKERS CLUB
Neighbourhood long girl. Named after the Pokemon. Main duties barking at skateboards, roller blades and the wind, acting as a test shot for lighting and generally growling at anything that moves. She is the true owner of this business.

Miss Mio Doge
MAKEUP ASSISTANT
Newest Intern. Absolutely terrible at makeup but tries her best. Despite popular belief, NOT a fox. Strengths include always missing the puppy pad and looking like a fox. Weaknesses, none. She's perfect. You’ll find her pottering about at bridal trials, and hoping for her big break in showbiz.

For me, makeup is more than makeup. I have watched it do so many things in the past 10 years, from turning an actor into a character to go on screen to making a woman feel more herself in the midst of her transition. Makeup is more than pretty colours and powder. It’s confidence, it’s power, it’s art, it’s creativity, it’s expression, it’s holding space for a moment for you.

I would eat Sushi every single day if I could, and I have more sneakers than I care to admit (trust me, if you ever come to my home studio, you will see ‘em!). I’m passionate about empowering women through makeup AND through education, which is what I do with the other half of my time on my educational side - By Kayleigh. I love to travel, exploring and walking (yes, I am that annoying person that chooses to walk for an hour rather than get public transport!). And if i’m not doing a combination of all those things, I’m definitely out in nature, with my family and my dogs.

My style of work is more “Oscar Red Carpet” than “Kardashian Insta-Glam” so I tend to attract those wanting softer, more natural looks and a more chilled out experience. I’m about enhancing, not covering and love to collaborate, not exaggerate. I have so many wonderful clients, turned friends, from my very first London bride Lois - to my wonderful client Katie, who has now turned into my afternoon tea buddy.

You probably saw above, my little besties - Mio and Eevee. Eevee currently lives by the seaside in Kent, with my family, after developing an “allergy” to London (if you have sausage dogs, you will know what I’m talking about!). Mio lives in London and is my little wolfy girl. You can meet her, she’s often in my apartment when I have trials and she’s the perfect on-set dog. She has even been featured in a commercial!
