HELEN SILVER
Your makeup artist
With over 12 years of experience in the beauty industry, I’m passionate about enhancing natural beauty and creating looks that make my clients feel their best. My approach is inclusive—I love working with your bridal party providing a friendly yet luxurious service tailored to each person. As a lover of animals, I exclusively use cruelty-free makeup, ensuring that my artistry aligns with my values. My goal is to make every client feel beautiful, relaxed, and pampered, while crafting a bridal experience that’s as memorable as the makeup itself. Learn a bit more about me and my journey into makeup below.
MY JOURNEY INTO MAKEUP
My journey into makeup began when I left school at 16, where I pursued my passion with a BTEC qualification in Beauty, followed by specialised training in makeup artistry. In 2014, I took my first steps into the bridal world, falling in love with the magic of helping brides feel their best on their most special day.
A few years later, I moved to the Middle East for just under two years, where I gained experience at a TV news station.
When I returned home, I knew it was time to start my own business. I focused on what I loved most—bridal makeup—while also expanding my expertise into advanced permanent makeup. Today now in my early 30’s , I continue to provide a bespoke, luxury service to each client, blending my experience, passion, and a love for creating natural beauty to bring every bride’s vision to life.
Permanent cosmetic tattoo is such a passion of mine and also helping teach others with makeup application in my popular lessons.
MY HOME LIFE
So you guessed, I’m Helen and now the proud mum of Theodore, my little boy. I share my life with my husband, Graham of 5 years and our Rhodesian Ridgeback, Leo. Outside of my love and obsession with makeup, I love outings to nice restaurants, the theatre, travelling abroad and getting outside to Country Houses and nice walks in the UK. Life looks a little different since we welcomed our son in 2023. I’m more likely on a day off at a swim lesson or day out with Theodore. I do really love being a Mum - but my work is a great social and creative outlet.
However, as a true Gemini, I love the yin and yang of life and also enjoy a bit of a treat- cue the cocktail bar and a bit of luxury! More often I’m found at home watching a crime series, cozied up, but I do keep up with my incredible friends and love spending time with my Mum too. Getting to know my brides and other clients is a true joy, I can’t wait to get to know you too!
