If you’re looking for amazing hair and makeup for your wedding, I would thoroughly recommend Lillybeth and her team. As soon as I saw the magic she and hair stylist Laura created during my trial, I knew I was onto a very good thing. I recommend going into it with only the vaguest of ideas for what you want (like I did, hehe). This gives them the freedom to get really creative, to work with your features and skin tone, and give you something you would never have thought to ask for yourself, but you will LOVE. The morning of my wedding was so much fun, having our hair and makeup done by Lillybeth and Laura was a laugh a minute, so much fun and a great relaxing start to the day. Oh and our makeup lasted all day - ours was a brunch wedding (ceremony 9.30am) - we looked great all day until we left the venue mid afternoon; mine still looked fantastic even after catching a plane to Auckland for our honeymoon. It lasted well into the evening, we went out for dinner that night and it still looked fresh and lovely. Once again, seriously consider Lillybeth and team for your wedding. They’re not the cheapest out there I’m sure, BUT you get what you pay for, and then some. Xoxo

Lilybeth and her assistant Lisa were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Her emails were always professional, friendly and prompt. On the day my makeup (and that of my bridemsmaids) looked fantastic. We had a trial the day before and she listened to what I wanted (a veey natural look) and I walked down the aisle looking like myself. She also did an incredible job of covering up the patchy sunburn on my back that would have been visible in my dress. I would definitely recommend Lilybeth and her team.

For my daughters wedding I was treated to a make up session with Lillybeth. It was a fantastic experience not least because it ws only the second time Id ever had it done. She made me feel relaxed and whilst the make up was more elaborate than I ever would do myself it looked amazing. My new son in law even said I looked glamorous!!
As it was a treat I dont know how much it cost

Lillybeth did an amazing job of my makeup as well as my 3 bridesmaids and mum. She was very good at communicating and was very professional the whole way through. All of our makeup looked great in person and in the photos.
We were all happy with coverage and how well it lasted. Only thing was that the foundation Lillybeth used didn’t seem to stick on my face and didn’t last very well but she was very happy to just use my own foundation to ensure my makeup lasted the whole day. The foundation Lillybeth uses lasted well on all the other girls though so must have just been my skin!
Would highly recommend Lillybeth!

Lillybeth is amazing! I arraged things from the netherlands and I chose to let lillybeth do my make-up without an actual make-up trail. She made me feel at ease and i completly trusted her. I only showed her some photo’s from make-up she did in the past to show her what style I liked. The result was incredible!

Lillybeth was amazing and made wedding planning so much easier ! We met earlier in the year for a trial and made me feel at ease and comfortable - as not a frequent makeup wearer. She was great at recommending some excellent products to help me prep my skin for the big day which I still use daily she was professional , on time and organised which I wasn’t at ALL on our wedding day ! I would highly recommend her to all brides, and wish her all the best in future endeavours

Lillybeth was a wonderful make up artist. She did the make up for my two bridesmaids, my mother, my sister in law and myself. All of our make up was flawless and lastest throughout the heat of the day. Lillybeth was great at keeping the make up how we had discussed and not adding in my bridesmaids suggestions, without upsetting them. Thank you.

Lillybeth did an exceptional job with my wedding make up, as well as my 3 bridesmaids and my mum. Everyone’s make up was matched to them perfectly, while keeping on theme. It looked amazing on camera, but it was also stunning in person and lasted the whole day and night. Lillybeth was always quick to respond to any questions I had, and was very accommodating both with the trial timing and the wedding day itself. She was by far one of the easiest vendors to work with. It was lovely to have her as part of my special day

I booked Lillybeth for my wedding and chose Lisa one of her makeup artists. I was very nervous as I wasn’t really sure on how I wanted my makeup to look for my wedding! but I’m so glad I chose Lisa she was professional and lovely and was happy to change anything I wasn’t really sure about and suggested other ideas. I ended up Changing the look we discussed in the trial before the wedding without having another practice and I also didn’t really have a look for my bridesmaids either and she did a fabulous job she
made me and my bridesmaids look phenomenal! And our false lashes stayed on and looked really good to! Everyone kept saying how beautiful I looked and I looked stunning in all my wedding photos as well!
I’m so glad I booked lillybeth for my wedding I had nothing to worry about! I would recommend her and her team to anyone.

Lillybeth was professional from start to finish. She was prompt with communication and this was a relief when it came to coordinating all the different vendors. I felt I could rely on her to turn up on the day and do a great job. She was considerate at adapting to my requests and accentuated my best features. She also did a beautiful job in my bridesmaids. On top of all that, she was a relaxing and fun addition to the getting ready process. I trust her judgement and skills and have even booked in to have a follow up make up lesson with her.

Lillybeth was a great makeup artist for my wedding. She easily got through 5 makeup’s and worked in around my hairdresser. She was calm, relaxed and prepared. She cruised along through the morning just like all of us. I was very happy with my makeup, it lasted until the next morning without wearing off or smudging (I didn’t have makeup remover packed in my hotel bag). I always have trouble with lipstick staying but Lillybeth’s was great! I didn’t have to reapply as the stain it left on my lips was just perfect. I’ve had makeup done by Lillybeth before 2 years prior and it was just as good this time around, if not better. I would highly recommend Lillybeth and if I get the chance I will be using her again!

I booked my wedding makeup with Lillybeth a year out from my Wedding, due to her being in such hot demand she couldn’t do it herself but we had one of her team Daphne do our makeup. Daphne is so talented and amazing at what she does, she made all of my bridesmaids and I feel so beautiful. My mum, who doesn’t wear ANY makeup, called Daphne a magician. I was so happy that my mum felt comfortable, relaxed and beautiful on my wedding day too.

I contacted Lillybeth regarding booking my bridal and bridesmaids makeup, and received a response within a day! She let me know that she herself wouldn’t be available, but gave me the profiles of her other artists for me to look at and pick from. I chose Lisa and booked her in.
About a month out from our big day I had my trial. Lisa welcomed us into her home and made us feel comfortable. We trialed a look, which on looking at in the mirror I liked. I went away that afternoon and looked at pictures, and decided that in actual fact it was not what i was after, and I immediately sent through my concerns to Lillybeth. She and Lisa both assured me that they completely understood, and noted the changes I wanted and made me feel very listened to.
The day came around so fast, and I was a little bit nervous as wanted everything to be perfect. Lisa did my Mum’s and my 4 bridesmaid’s make up first and left me until last. We discussed the concerns I had with my trial and she went to work and it was SPOT ON!! I LOVED everything about my make up and I felt INCREDIBLE!
I have recommended Lillybeth and her team to many of my friends who are getting married in the coming year and will continue to do so. Very very impressed with the Lillybeth Ladies - thank you for making my day so perfect xx

Lillybeth took care of the makeup for myself and my 3 bridesmaids. Her team then looked after the mother of the bride, mother of the groom and groomswoman.
Lillybeth was extremely professional leading up to the day and it was a pleasure dealing with her especially since my husband and I live in Melbourne and we were travelling back to my home in Tauranga for our wedding.
On the day, Lillybeth did a great job and was happy to tweak things if any of us girls were not 100% happy with anything. She is friendly and chatty and certainly knows exactly what she is doing.
She also recommended a hair stylist for my bridesmaids who was fantastic to work with also.

Chrissie, one of Lillybeth’s team members, did the make-up for myself, mother, godmother and two bridesmaids. I was so thrilled with her work, she worked with each person’s colouring and preferences and created a flawless finish that lasted all night. I did have a trial with her a couple of months before the wedding which I was pleased with and the make-up on the day ended up being even better than the trial which was fantastic. Chrissie is easygoing, patient and really knows her stuff!
All communications with Lillybeth were efficient and friendly and I’m really glad I booked in with Chrissie via Lillybeth.

Lillybeth did the makeup for myself, both my Bridesmaids and my Mum for our wedding and she was quick, professional and fantastic to deal with. The makeup lasted all day and night and was perfectly matched to all of our skin tones.
I would recommend Lillybeth to any bride considering her for their wedding.

I never wear make up so getting used to seeing myself in it was tough at first but Lillybeth listened to all my little requests and made the whole look for my wedding ceremony and reception perfect! She worked with my olive brown Indian skin tone so well and placed emphasis on my eyes where I wanted it. She gave me the natural look I was going for and I have nothing that I would change. She is as pro as it gets! The number of compliments I received was ridiculous!
Thank you so much Lillybeth, you are an absolute star!

Lillybeth was always on time, reliable and excellent in her communication leading up to and on my wedding day.
Lillybeth did my own, my 3 bridesmaids and my mothers makeup and she was incredibly talented to do such an amazing job and timed it all perfectly.
My make up lasted in perfect condition the entire day and Lillybeth picked all the perfect shades for my skin and I loved all the compliments I received.
Lillybeth is a super organised and talented professional and she would give any client complete confidence in her services. Book her now!

Lillybeth was totally professional throughout the whole process, she was so helpful and made me feel so confident in my choice to have her as my makeup artist at our trial. She showed me how the Pinterest ideas I presented would look on my face, then altered them to make them work for me
She arrived early on the day which was fantastic considering she had to travel from Tauranga to Lake Matahina, and myself and my bridesmaid felt like a million dollars, the whole day. The makeup she applied lasted until the next day, even through a scorcher of a day, tears and travelling in a convertible.
My makeup was exactly what I had hoped for, and she had the knowledge to use my ideas and do what would look best for my skin type and face shape.
She is definitely worth the amount she charges, and I would recommend her to all brides in the Bay of Plenty region and beyond
Thank you so much Lillybeth!!!

I booked Lillybeth two years in advance from the UK. I wanted my most important suppliers locked in early to be sure not to miss out. It was a gamble booking a MUA from pics online only and I didn’t have my trial until three weeks pre wedding. Despite the previous worry Lillybeth was fast and responsive to all my questions and following my trial I was sure id made the right choice. She also did my three bridesmaids and mothers makeup for the day too. Mum is very insecure and had never had hers done professionally before, but we organised a trial for her too and everything went seamlessly. She was gorgeous - we all were. And the best part is that it lasted the whole day despite it being 28 degrees that day. I had hair down and a ballgown dress with a lot of layers so I had expected it would smudge but it didnt let me down at all. I’d definitely use Lillybeth again and would recommend any future brides to give her a call.

Desiree was the most kind-hearted lady - it was a pleasure to have her apart of my special day. I even loved the make up trials with her. She was so great at listening to what I wanted and changing things accordingly.
Lillybeth was a pleasure to communicate with when planning the make up artist. Her communication was clear, detailed and prompt.
Thank you Desiree and Lillybeth!!

We thoroughly recommend Lillybeth. She was very professional and patient.
She applied make up to my sisters who do not usually wear make up and they looked amazing.
Lillybeth’s skill excelled when she applied make up to my mothers elderly complexion, she did a fantastic job and my mother looked beautiful.
I loved the look she created for me.
Our make up lasted the whole occasion.

Lillybeth is the most talented makeup artist I know. I have had my makeup done professionally a few times now and Lillybeth is by far the most talented I have come across.
She made me feel absolutely stunning on my wedding day and her makeup gave me so much confidence I felt like a model!
Lillybeth also did makeup for my mum too! What can I say mum has never had her makeup professionally done before but mum said she had never felt so beautiful in all her life, she made my dads jaw drop she looked so good!
Lillybeth went above and beyond! Giving me a skin care regime that worked brilliantly leading up to the wedding and helping me with other wedding stuff beyond makeup!
Desiree did my bridesmaids makeup and did and exceptional job just like Lillybeth!
Brides to be, I’m not kidding, if you want the best makeup on your big day and are lucky enough to book them, Lillybeth and Desiree are your ladies!
Thanks so much again both of you.

I absolutely loved it!! I think it was even better than the trial.
The make-up lasted amazingly on all of us and I was so happy that we all still had beautiful make-up until the end of the night.
I especially loved how you made my mum look as she does not wear much make-up. You also made my bridesmaids feel comfortable and confident in the look you gave them.
Each individual looked beautiful and the make-up matched them perfectly, even without as make-up trial on them!
You had such an amazing professional manner and lighted up the room.
It was a pleasure to have you their and I am so happy I chose you to be apart of our wedding preparations!
Thank you again. I will most definitely recommend you.

Lillybeth is a magician. She made my dear Mum look absolutely fabulous for my wedding- despite my Mum having been sorely tempted to cancel having her makeup done at all as she a) doesn’t wear it usually and b) didn’t think much could be done for her…was she WRONG! My Mum looked a million bucks with even her sons commenting we’d have to find another occasion where we could get this done for her as she looked so great. I was one very happy daughter and bride! Lillybeth also did my head bridesmaids and myself and we all felt gorgeous. She played to our features with her no-nonsense approach and amazing make up skills. I felt very beautiful and was impressed by the staying power of the makeup without it feeling too OTT. I’d recommend a trial as well - no need to if you’ve got doubts about skills or consistency ...just because you get to feel special twice Thank you Lillybeth!

I have had my makeup done professionally quite a few times before and I can honestly say that Lillybeth is the best at her craft. She really knows her stuff! I felt so confident to be in her capable hands.
A few weeks before the wedding, Lillybeth came to my home for a makeup trial. She listened carefully to what I had to say and created the look I was after with such attention to detail. I felt free of stress from that point onwards. Lillybeth is so approachable and easy to talk to and her calm and friendly demeanour helped me to feel really relaxed on the day.
My Mum and my bridesmaids were all so happy with their makeup and got so many great compliments from everyone on the day. The makeup remained perfect all day and night without so much as a smudge. I truly felt more beautiful than I ever have.
Thank you so much, Lillybeth!

We all looked and felt amazing thanks to you and the magic you worked, we received so many compliments it was just wonderful to feel like a princess on such a special day.
Your make-up lasted the whole day and all night dancing and the lashes were amazing and made my eyes just that bit bigger without being over the top.
You were a pleasure to work with, very prompt and ensured we were all ready in time for our first look photos.

Lily Beth was extremely efficient and detailed in all of her communications up to the trial and wedding. Having someone who was clear and onto it was a huge weight off my shoulders, as it was not always the case with other parts of the wedding organisation.
I wasn’t completely sold on my eye makeup after the trial, and after thinking it through I emailed Lily Beth to explain. To be honest, on the day I was still a little nervous how the eyes were going to turn out but Lily Beth had really taken the email on board and had her own thoughts to contribute. My eyes looked stunning! I could not have been happier.
My bridesmaids all looked absolutely beautiful and were at ease with Desiree, who matched their makeup to suit their own personal tones, but also made them feel calm.
Like many reviews on this page I also COULD NOT believe how well the makeup lasted. We had a few spits of rain prior to the ceremony, as well as dancing our hearts out at the reception - but the makeup still looked good on all of us when I left with my man around 11.30pm.
Thoroughly recommend Lily Beth and her team to anyone wanting a stress free makeup on the day, as well as fabulous photos for the years to come.

Lillybeth was more than happy to adapt a couple of changes from the trial and I was so happy with the end result (I was sad to have to wash it off at the end of the night). She was a pleasure to have around on the wedding morning and I would highly recommend Lillybeth to any brides to be.

Lillybeth was so professional she was always in contact and any questions I had she replied to my emails very quickly, I had my makeup trial 2 weeks before my wedding. I wear makeup all the time so I had an idea of what I wanted but she made it perfect to suit me and my dress. .On my wedding day Lillybeth did a wonderful job on me,my 2 bridesmaids and Debbie did my mums makeup. I was quite nervous so she told me funny stories, made me laugh and calmed me down so I was able to relax., Everyone at the wedding commented on how gorgeous we all were and how amazing our makeup was. Our makeup lasted the whole day! Our makeup at the end of night was still flawless, Even when we had such hot weather and a beautiful day when everyone is sweating it was still perfect and flawless, So thank you Lillybeth for your hard work, professionalism and making us all look like princesses. I had a wonderful wedding I would highly recommend you to any of my friends getting married in a heartbeat!!!

Her calm and professional nature made it easy to relax with her and we were all ready with time to spare.
Lillybeth was really good to deal with in the lead up to the wedding, I received quick responses to queries and knew exactly what was happening when. It was also nice to receive the information emails with tips for preparing for the big day.

I was super stoked with my make up by Lillybeth. On a crazy, whirlwind once in a life time occasion she made me feel so at ease with our silly chats and giggles while applying my makeup. The end result make up was just what I wanted, the cluster lashes finished it off awesomely. I have and will recommend Lillybeth to all my lady pals.

Absolutely perfect to deal with. When planning a wedding there is so much to do and to make your life easier you want the people that will be part of the day to always reply answer any questions you may have. Lillybeth always replied promptly and was professional but also very nice. I was worried that my bridal party (5 bridesmaids and myself) and my mum wouldn’t be able to get all their makeup and hair done in time before leaving at 1pm for the wedding. Lillybeth assured me that it could easily be done and even finished early allowing us all plenty of time to get dressed. She recommended Brooke Duffy from Beautiful hair and together they made us all look like princesses!
Would defiantly recommend Lillybeth to brides and even if you want your make up done for a different special occasion. I’m racking my brain trying to think of something special coming up so i can book her in again!

I was lucky enough to have Lillybeth herself do my make upon my wedding day.
I was a little sceptical at first because I usually don’t like anyone else doing my make up, I have had really bad experience with make up artists in local malls and stores.
Lillybeth is different, she’s so easy going and makes you feel extremely comfortable. She asks your opinion on what you think would look best and makes sure she knows the details about what kind of makeup you want for your big day. She is happy to do trial runs and is open to change details if there is something you are not sure about. I enjoyed my Trial and Lillybeth sent me pictures afterwards to make sure I was happy with my look. - I was! Lillybeth is AMAZING.
On my wedding day I knew that Lillybeth would make me look like an absolute superstar - and she did! My wedding photos have come out absolutely stunning and I am so happy with what my make up turned out like on the day. The make up isn’t too think and it stays on your face and doesn’t rub off when you hug your loved ones.
Lillybeth’s Assistant, Julie, did my bridesmaids make up. My bridesmaids couldn’t stop staring at themselves in the mirror and taking photos. Every single one mentioned to me on the day that they have never felt more beautiful in their lives.
Thank you so much Lillybeth and Julie! I will definitely be recommending you to everyone I know! xx

I really loved my wedding makeup from Lillybeth for myself, my bridesmaids and my mum. It looked beautiful and lasted all afternoon and into the night. The products she used are really nice and I have sensitive skin and it didn’t irritate me at all. We had a small change of plan on my wedding day and Lillybeth didn’t mind travelling from the salon where she did my bridesmaids to my house to do mine as I was unwell. I highly recommend Lillybeth and will definitely choose to have her if needed for any makeup in the future.

Lillybeth not only does the very professional make-up, but also a truly wonderful person!
When Lillybeth was doing my make-up on the big day,
I was so nervous about the ceremony and my dinner speech.
But what she told me just calming me down and we had so much fun (and some crazy funny photos) :p
“It’s really good to have you here with me!” - I remember I told her that on the day.
My make-up was definitely perfect for me!
It still looked amazing at the end of the night, even through all the tears…. - and I didn’t even need to re-apply.
I would definitely recommend you pick Lillybeth for your big day!!!!
Thank you so much Lillybeth xx
Please see “Beautiful Hair” as well.
My hair still looked awesome even though it was a super windy sunny day!
Lillybeth & Brooke are the best team!!

Right from my initial enquiry Lillybeth was extremely friendly, professional, upfront & honest.
Even though I live in Australia so all communication was done via email, nothing was a problem & Lillybeth was more than happy to answer all of my questions I had in detail in a way that even a non make up wearer such as myself would understand!
I had my trial 6 months before our actual wedding day so even though I had a tan on the big day that I didn’t have at my trial, it wasn’t a problem at all, Lillybeth just adapted & tweaked the colours to make them all work.
I couldn’t have been happier with the final result of not only my own make up, but my 3 bridesmaids, mum & mother-in-law as well, we all couldn’t have been happier with it & everyone on the day & into the night commented on hoe good it looked & how well it wore.
I had mine on for about 14 hours & it didn’t wear off at all & only came off when I washed it off.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone, whether I knew them or not! Hands down the best in the business in The Bay!

On my wedding day, I booked Lilybeth to do my make up. As soon as I got engaged I went on Google to look for the best make up artist in Tauranga, where I live, I saw a few photos of what Lilybeth had done and knew that she is the best I can get. I had a trial done, two weeks before the wedding and it was totally worth it. Personally I love make up and I often wear it, so I had an idea of what I wanted, which Lilybeth was always very open to hear and on the day she couldn’t have done a better job. Even though my skin was terrible due to lack of sleep for the whole wedding week and stress. I didn’t have much concern though, knowing that I was in the hands of the best, I knew Lilybeth would make me look flawless and she did.
I would recommend her to anyone!!

Lilly Beth was a pleasure to deal with, as I lived in Australia i chose lilybeth through reviews and word of mouth, a lot of friends had used her. Communication was easy, and payment was east being in another country by providing credit card details rather than bank transfer. I had desiree from lilybeth team do my makeup, it was flawless absolutely stunning. She was so lovely, listened to what I wanted and we looked over ideas and pictures, the end result was perfect!!!!

We had Abbie from Lillybeth make up and she did an amazing job on me, my bridesmaids, my mum and my nana. She was really helpful and listened to exactly what we wanted and touched us up right before she left. We were all very happy with the end result. I also had individual false eyelashes that were amazing!
I also purchased the make up kit to use after that consisted of a foundation and the lip stick. It was great having the lipstick but was a little disappointed with the foundation as it wasn’t the same colour or brand that I was already wearing and it looked whiter on me when I put it on before the reception it looked too pale and didn’t sit very well on my skin. However it was a very minor disappointment but could be an improvement to make?
Thanks again Abbie- it was so lovely to have you as part of the best day ever

I had spoken to Lillybeth last year about the possibility of booking her for my wedding in Feb however my husband and I changed our plans and no longer needed her service. But then I decided she was to good not to use and I deserved a treat. So I booked in to get my makeup done for a wedding I was attending.
The first word that comes to mind while writing this is simply AMAZING! Lillybeth is so easy to get along with! We chatted, laughed and I generally just had a fab time, all while she was making me look stunning. Throughout the day I was complemented on my amazing eyes and how flawless my skin looked. My makeup lasted from 8.30am until I washed it off close to midnight!
Lillybeth you rock! Thank you so much for making me look and feel amazing! I can’t wait to book you in for the next event.

Lillybeth did a wonderful job on me and my 4 bridesmaids makeup. Everyone at the wedding commented on how gorgeous we all were and how amazing our makeup was and they kept on asking who did it. Our makeup lasted the whole day! Even when we were hot and sweating a bit, you could not even tell-there were no red cheeks! It was flawless. She knew how to work with different skin colours-making it individual to them. Also one bridesmaid had freckles-she worked with the freckles rather than just trying to cover them up.
So thank you Lillybeth for your hard work, professionalism and making us look like a better version of ourselves. I would highly recommend you to any of my friends getting married in a heartbeat!!!

I have so many great things to say about Lillybeth, I don’t know where to start.
I had my make up trial with her 9 months prior to my wedding, I came out of this knowing I had made the perfect choice! With very little instruction on my part, Lillybeth done such an amazing job at getting it exactly how I like my makeup to be done.. Come the wedding day, she done an equally amazing job on not only myself but my 4 bridesmaids, Mother and 3 nieces. We all felt incredible, just how you should on your wedding day!
Lillybeth is truly amazing at what she does and I cannot recommend her enough! Cannot wait for my next occasion to have her do it again. Thanks Lillybeth!

I booked Lilybeth for my wedding but because she wasn’t available herself she offered a few of her team. I chose Jenna and was so happy with my make up. I had no idea what I wanted as I wasn’t somebody who wore a lot of make up so I just let Jenna do her own thing and I loved it. The make up felt amazing and I loved the false eyelashes and would recommend to all - really made me feel like a princess. I had loads of comments in the day and my photographer kept commenting on how she loved what had been done with my eyes.
Pre wedding and planning process is made easy with lilybeths knowledge of suppliers and vendors and she is always there for advice and keeps in touch with regular emails. A fantastic service that is highly recommended to others and I am now booking a make up lesson so I can try and recreate that look for myself.

Lillybeth has been absolutely brilliant from the moment I enquired with her, all the way through to producing stunning make up on our big day. I had a trial run with her in Tauranga, and felt confident that she understood what I was looking for and gave her honest opinion. On the day, she worked her magic and myself and two bridesmaids loved the look she produced. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone. Thanks!!

Lillybeth is a wonderful makeup artist, she made us look absolutely gorgeous on my wedding day. She has a beautiful personality, fun sense of humour & is an absolute delight to work with.
I had her apply makeup for myself, four bridesmaids and my mum; she worked quickly and efficiently but with a very high standard & level of detail. We absolutely loved our look. She also applied false flare lashes for me, this really made my eyes pop & as a result I have some incredibly gorgeous wedding photos to thank her for.
Mum was hesitant to have her makeup professionally applied, especially mascara as she was quite doubtful that it would last. Her makeup lasted all day, as it did for the rest of us, and Mum was thrilled with the result. Lillybeth really enhanced Mum’s natural beauty, she looked amazing.
I am so thankful that Lillybeth was recommended to me by Tauranga-based friends and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to anyone else.

Ours was a romantic wedding for two in Tauranga, which I needed to arrange from Wellington over just a six week period. Lillybeth made the whole process very easy - from confirming her availability to creating my perfect “wedding day face”. I felt totally at ease in trusting her expertise and skill. Lillybeth provided inspiring ideas throughout the process on how to have the “perfect day” well beyond the “perfect make-up”. Thank you so much, Lillybeth X.
please see the “Beautiful Hair” site also. Together, Lillybeth and Brooke form the perfect team!

Working with Lillybeth for our special day was brilliant! She did a beautiful job with make up for the bridal party and mother of the groom, working to achieve the look and feel I was after.
She arrived bright and early to have us all looking fresh faced and beautiful for an early morning ceremony - an extra challenge as we were all running on about 2 hours sleep! Her great sense of humour made the “getting ready” process even more fun!
She was very professional and accommodating, organising everything via email as we live in Sydney. She made it even easier by being the point of contact for both her and Brooke (Beautiful Hair), making it possible for me to meet them both together for a trial run and get the full effect!

If you are looking for an amazing make-up artist, who will make you look and feel beautiful on your wedding day (or for any special occasion) look no further! You won’t find better than Lillybeth. I heard of Lillybeth through a friend, who had been to a wedding where Lillybeth had been the make-up artist. She had said the girls’ make-up was so good one of the bridesmaid’s husbands hadn’t recognised her! After having a trial with Lillybeth, I felt completely confident that she would do an amazing job. I made a change to my lippy colour on the morning of my wedding and was so happy with the shade Lillybeth suggested it is now my most favourite & worn lippy! Lillybeth listens to what you want, suggests what will suit you and works her magic. We had our bridal party photos before our ceremony, so had to be made-up by 12:00pm. I didn’t need to touch up anything other than lipstick all day. By midnight our make-up was still looking good. I also really enjoyed reading her email booklet full of wedding suggestions. Thanks Lillybeth!

I found Lillybeth on recommendation from a friend, for whom LIllybeth had done wedding makeup for. Unfortunately, Lillybeth herself was booked for our big day, but not to worry, she has 2 equally talented and lovely makeup artists who she can also send. Lillybeth was prompt , and super helpful in all of her emails, which was helpful when planning a wedding from Australia. Lillybeth asked plenty of questions so she knew exactly what style I wanted, and recommended Julie. Julie did an amazing job, both at the trial, and on the day. We got so many complements on how beautiful the bridesmaids, and the bride looked on the day. She considered all of our different features, skin tones and dresses to ensure we all looked amazing, and we couldn’t have been happier. She did my Mum’s (MOB) makeup as well, and she looked so good, and was incredibly happy with the results. I have already passed on Lillybeth’s details based purely on the professional, and brilliant, results we got, and, as the ultimate complement, a workmate of my Mum wants to book Lillybeth because of how gorgeous everyone looked in the photos !!

The reviews and pictures say it all…. previously to booking my make up artist for my wedding I had done alot of research into them in the bay of plenty area as I was from out of town so all I could go by was the reviews and the pictures I had seen from previous brides which speak for itself… Lillybeth was fantastic from the start, always prompt with replies via emails and happily answering any questions I had also going above and beyond by providing recommendations on florists, hair (the amazing brooke duffy of course) and spray/beauty salon for the extra bits and pieces so I was very grateful for this. When I had my trial Lillybeth listened to the look I was after and did exactly that but even better… I had complete trust in her from the start which was a big thing for me particularly being very fussy with having someone do my makeup as I usually prefer to do my own. No matter what look you are going for she can do it.
On the day of my wedding Lillybeth made me and my bridesmaids feel absolutely stunning and on the day although it rained the makeup lasted all the way till the very next day.
thank you so much and I would recommend her to all

Lillybeth is a very professional make up artist, who knows her stuff! I booked her after having a terrible make up trial through someone else. As I live in Perth I needed someone I could trust to know everything about makeup particularly as I am very fair and didn’t want to look fake brown/orange!!
Her email correspondence was always really prompt and clear. I had a few ideas of what I wanted but when I met Lillybeth in person a week before my wedding I really trusted her to do something that suited me. Nothing worse then feeling self-conscious on your wedding day because you don’t feel like your self.
She did the makeup for myself, four bridesmaids and my mum. We started about 8:30am and were done in plenty of time to head up to the venue to get into our dresses. Lillybeth even went out of her way to drive up to our venue to deliver a gorgeous compact with lipstick after it hadn’t arrived by the morning she came to do our makeup. She also provided us with touch-up lipstick for throughout the day which was really helpful.
I had quite a few happy tears and my make up stayed put the whole day, I was so impressed!! This was the same for my mum and four bridesmaids.
I definitely recommend Lillybeth as your make-up artist. Thanks again for helping to make me feel amazing on my wedding day xx

Lillybeth was absolutely amazing as our make up artist! From the first email she was always really prompt at replying and very accommodating (as I had quite a few changes to make along the way). On our wedding day she made the getting ready part so easy, relaxing, and she is also great fun. The make-up itself was very long-lasting - my bridesmaids had theirs started at 9am and it still looked amazing at the end of the night. She also provided them with touch-up lipstick for throughout the day which was really helpful. I was extremely happy with my make-up for the day and had many comments on how good it looked. I loved that it had such great coverage without feeling like I had heaps of make-up on. I would definitely recommend having Lillybeth as your make-up artist for any occasion.

From start to finish, my experience with Lillybeth (A Beautiful Education) was brilliant. I booked one of Lillybeth’s team, Sam, to do the makeup for myself, my two bridesmaid, flower girl and Mother of the Bride.
Firstly, Lillybeth’s communication and willingness to offer help at every step of the process was second to none. I had no worries or concerns at all leading up to the day.
Sam, who did our makeup was lovely and very personable, which makes all the difference. I had a trial run with Sam leading up to the day, and she both listened to what I wanted but also offered advice on how to make it better.
On the day, our makeup was exquisite. We perform on stage and are no strangers to make-up, and I was so happy with how we all looked. Even my Director, who is fanatical about good makeup was impressed. She was taking close-up photos to take back to my chorus and show them.
I would thoroughly recommend using Lillybeth and Sam again.

My mum, bridesmaid and I were all very impressed: she managed to get everything absolutely perfect for all of us! We all received many positive comments from our guests (and most important of all: my husband!). We were very lucky that she was available on my wedding day.
It was amazing too to see how relaxed my mum was during the make up session, as she was very nervous about the make up, but I have never seen her shine as much in my life before! Communication and make up trail were very very good and professional too: I would definitely recommend her to any bride to be!

You were a very lucky find Lillybeth! Quite by chance we found out about you while chatting in a shop!
Thankyou for being available at such short notice on such an awkward day of the year. Obviously it was all meant to be.
We loved being pampered by you, you are very calming to be around . Our bride was thrilled with the results as were the rest of us.
Thankyou Lillybeth.

Lillybeth did a great job on our bridal party and myself, she gave sound advice, the make up lasted and everyone felt a million dollars all night.
Weddings are such personal and important events to the bride and groom. Lillybeth sees hundreds of brides and yet she still treated me and our wedding like it was as important to her as it was to me. That kind of treatment is priceless, it’s fair to say I’m absolutely stoked with my choice of make up artist.

My Grandma, three bridesmaids and I had our makeup done by Lillybeth for my wedding. She did such an amazing job on all five of us- we had compliments from all of our guests, and we all felt really beautiful on the day. My makeup lasted so well that it actually still looked perfect the next morning!
I particularly appreciated Lillybeth’s friendly and professional manner. She was very well organised, and I felt confident that I had chosen the right makeup artist right from the very first email that I received from her.

Julie, did our make up.
She was exceptional, she knew exactly what we all wanted and we all had endless compliements throughout the night.
(there were 3 of us in total)
She was professional and you can tell very good at what she does.
We were very impressed with Lillybeths communication before the wedding to, making me (the bride) feel very confident and satisfied with our choice of make-up artist.
So thank you Julie and Lillybeth for being so professional and great at what you do!

Lillybeth did a wonderful job with the bridal party makeup. The colour match to our skin was fantastic!
She was on time and very very professional. The photographer, hairdresser, my mum and the all the bridesmaids were impressed by her work.
My bridesmaids makeup was absolutely stunning, their eyes just popped! Loved it.
Our makeup lasted all day, even through all the tears and hot weather.
Thank you Lillybeth.

Lillybeth is absolutely hands down amazing! I could not have asked for anyone more brilliant than she is. The whole bridal partys makeup was flawless and brought out the best features in every one of the girls, as for mine - better than I could ever have imagined! Such a professional and a beautiful relaxed person which is exactly the type of makeup artist you need on your big day : )

I couldn’t have felt any better on my wedding day thanks to Lillybeth, she was professional, talented, fun and extremely understanding of the chaotic-ness of the day. I was amazed by how comfortable I felt especially as I’m not used to wearing makeup very often, and how natural it looked, the photos came out wonderfully! Even the ones towards the end, look like my make up has just been applied. Could not have been happier! Thank you again Lillybeth

Laura Rosa (organised through Lillybeth) did the make up for our wedding for myself and my four bridesmaids. She arrived nice and early to fit us all in and despite it being a very hot summers day we all looked fresh with full faces of make up at the end of the night.
We had a vintage style wedding so didn’t want to look ‘overdone’ and Laura did a great job of making us look classic but sorting out any imperfections.
Lillybeth was also very professional to arrange the booking through - always prompt replying to queries etc.
Highly recommended.

Bride • August 13, 2013
I wasn’t able to arrange a consultation with Lillybeth prior to my wedding, so was the slightest bit nervous about not being 100% satisfied with how my wedding make-up turned out. I was pleased that she arrived on time and was a complete joy to spend time with. Her bubbly, yet soothing personality was perfect, especially with the clock ticking toward the start of my ceremony. She frequently checked in to see that I was happy with her progress and at the end I was overjoyed to find that she had nailed the look I was after with only a couple of emailed photos and a brief consultation at the start of my appointment. I highly recommend her to anyone after special event make-up. You will not be disappointed with her artful skill and refreshing professionalism.

My husband who isn’t use to me wearing much makeup was a little worried i would look overdone and not like me at all. Lillybeth created a such a natural but beautiful look and he loved it!!

Lillybeth was fantastic and I can’t thank her enough for the amazing make-up she did on my special day. She did a great job on my make-up, my 2 bridesmaids, my mother and a friend. I was impressed with her professionalism and great communication. We had a trial run a few months before the day and she listened to the changes I wanted and applied them on the day. As a result I felt amazing and absolutely loved my make up. I would not hesitate to recommend Lillybeth to others. Thanks again Lillybeth!

I would recomend lillybeth to anyone!
I had a trial first and had no idea what i wanted for my makeup so I left it up to lillybeth’s ideas. When she had finished I looked in the mirror and was amazed I dont think Id ever felt so amazing! this made me so excited for my big day as I knew I’d look better than I could have imagined! On my big day my 4 bridesmaids and my makeup were done to perfection! Lillybeth was so friendly but professional It put me at ease, I was pretty overwhelmed and stressed for parts of the morning but lillybeth also helped to keep me calm.
The only downfall to getting my makeup done by Lillybeth is the fact that now everyday when I do my makeup I wish it looked as nice as how she did it!
If you read this Lillybeth Thankyou from the bottom of my heart for making me feel like a moviestar on my big day!

I was recommended Lily Beth by a friend.
I loved the fact that you had pricing options and also were given the opportunity to have a full trial run through well before the wedding day to decide on what style works for you.
She was very professional throughout the whole process, but balanced this with being friendly and open and honest about how my make up was looking.
She listened to the feedback I had and used that to make sure that I had a look I was happy with on the day.
I was very very pleased with the results and thoroughly happy with how my make up turned out.
She uses great productss

Laura was our makeup artist for the day and did a fantasic job. She had 5 of us to do, and managed her time spot-on.
The products she uses are lovely, and they lasted pretty well out in the elements (it was a hot day) Lipstick needed a touch up after a few hours, however you are provided with a mini lippy to do so.
She did a great job at matching the different skin tones & makeup looked nice and natural.
All in all, she did an excellent job, is super easy going and fitted in easily to keep it a stress free day. Thanks Laura

Julie, our makeup artist (bride, bridesmaids, mother of bride & stepdaughter) was WONDERFUL! We all have different skin tones & wear different amounts of makeup usually (me - none) & she made us all beautiful. She was a welcome addition to our day, kept us giggling & I think enjoyed our company!
I would recommend Julie totally, and thank her so much for making us all feel wonderful. She’s a complete star!

Lillybeth did such a fantastic job of our make-up on the day and we were all very happy. Lillybeth made us all look like movie stars. Everyone commented on her easy nature, flexibility and knowledge and she made everyone feel at ease. She was very efficient too as she had 8 people to do on the day. The make-up lasted great and I only touched up on lipstick once during the day. Would highly recommend her to anyone.

Lillybeth came to my rescue and did my wedding make-up for my big day! She did an amazing job! I normally don’t like a lot of make-up on me, but she took that into consideration and made me feel completely comfortable with it on! Her gained great rapport quickly and I felt completely comfortable with her the entire time! She even managed to fit my mother in last minute with no complaints! Thanks for doing a fabulous job for me and my girls on the day! We all looked fantastic!!

Bride • March 01, 2013
I felt the trial run was rushed. At the trial there was myself and 2 other brides-to-be and Lillybeth and the hairdresser were working on one, then the other in quick succession, so there was not much time to really adjust or tweak things. I was also supposed to get a colour check for my tattoo to be covered on my shoulder and that didn’t happen.
Although on the big day I must thank you Lillybeth for your expertise. My bridesmaids & I looked lovely, and we all felt very special. Only criticism was my small shoulder tattoo which was supposed to be covered but it didn’t work (probably due to not getting a test done at the trial). It took so much time and I was still not happy with the result (paid extra for the coverage too) so I got one of my bridesmaids to remove the coverage, as it looked like a big brown splat on my shoulder and they applied some foundation to soften the tattoo, which in the end made me late for the ceremony.
So overall very happy but would recommend changing the venue for the trial (too small) and the way the trial is conducted. Too rushed and not enough time to really make sure colour selection was ok for the big day.

I highly recommend Lillybeth to anyone looking for a make-up artist for their wedding. I was planning most of my wedding overseas and from the moment I contacted Lillybeth she was so helpful, not only for her own services but recommending other wedding suppliers as well (it is so great having recommendations when planning a wedding from afar).
I had a trial run with Lillybeth which was great to meet her before the wedding and discuss what to do, as I had no idea what I wanted.
On the day she was fantastic! She not only made me, 4 bridesmaids, and my mum look beautiful but she is so friendly and was lovely to have in the house while we got ready. The makeup was brilliant and lasted all day and night!
Thank you Lillybeth

Thanks Lilybeth for your professional and prompt communication and for putting me in touch with the skilled and capable make-up artist, Laura who managed with apparent ease to make our wedding party of 6 bridemaids, flower girl, mother of the bride and myself the bride to all feel and look beautiful and confident on our big day. We got SO many positive comments throughout the day with people asking who did our make-up. Laura worked quickly and professionally to ensure we all looked amazing and were happy with the soft vintage look which was the theme of our wedding. Our make up remained looking good all throughout the day and lasted partying until 5am! I’m REALLY happy with how our make-up was on the day and highly recommend Laura for any event/occassion. Thanks Laura!!

I had a few hiccups with wedding makeup so when Lillybeth swooped in and saved the day I was very grateful. She listened to my concerns during the trial and I was very happy with the look we went with. On the day she travelled to me, was very relaxed and fitted in with my hairdresser and friends fussing over me. The makeup was beautiful and I felt like a absolute goddess. I would recommend Lillybeth to any bride, she knows her stuff!

I was very impressed with Lillybeth’s professionalism. This was the first time I had a professional make-up artist & I was very impressed with the outcome. Lillybeth was very informative & made me feel very comfortable & at ease throughout the whole procedure.
Not only did she arrive at the location of where I was staying at, to prepare for my wedding on the day, but she was able to make it look natural & it felt like I wasn’t wearing make up at all.
She was very accommodating, easy to talk to & listen & was also helpful in providing advice for afterwards, when at home.
I would recommend Lillybeth to anyone in the future whom is wanting a professional make-up artist.
I also had a pre wedding make-up done the day before which was very helpful & informative before the wedding day. i would also recommend having a pre wedding make up done as well

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Lilybeth. There was prompt contact after all of my enquiries and when we did meet for the trial she knew just what to do to make me look beautiful, even though I had no idea what “look” I was going for. Lilybeth was a please to have around on the morning of the wedding, she was on time, professional and has a fantastic sense of humour and fun.
I would recommend Lilybeths services to any bride, I felt truly beautiful for my special day (and the make-up lasted all day with me) and have the photos to prove it :o)

Bride • October 24, 2012
My mum NEVER wears makeup, therefore she was so reluctant when I suggested she be pampered on my wedding day by having Lillybeth do her makeup. I pressured her into it, and I’m so glad I did! What did mum think once the makeup was applied?.. Well for starters she couldn’t stop ranting about how lovely Lillybeth is and how talented! But also that she has never felt so beautiful in her life, that the makeup felt extremely comfortable and she felt so confident! That truly is something for my mum. Lillybeth did the same for me. She listened to what I wanted and delivered waaay beyond my expectations. I too felt the most beautiful and confident! The makeup stayed on all day without a single smudge, plus my hubby couldn’t keep his eyes off me.. Extra bonus. Couldn’t fault Lillybeth for anything, shes a beautiful person and so very very talented- you will surely feel confident with Lillybeth taking care of you!

Not only did she make my bridesmaids, mothers and myself look and feel transformed and gorgeous, she also happily did last minute makeup for a few other guests (at a reasonable cost).

Lillybeth was great, i loved that when my hair dresser cancelled that she was able to organise a replacement. My make-up looked natural and didn’t feel heavy at all. She understood what i was wanting even when i didn’t even know how to explain.
I would definitely recommend her to anyone.

Lillybeth is extremely professional and knows her work well. Our make-up had to last from mid-day to mid-night and the only touch-up needed was the lipstick. My bridesmaid and myself looked fabulous all day. She is calm and friendly and this definitely helps on the day when so much is going on. It’s also a definite plus to have someone coming to us on the day rather than going to a salon. I would highly recommend Lillybeth to anyone wanting professional make-up services.

So glad I opted to have Lillybeth do my makeup. From the trial with her we had a clear idea of what I wanted for my big day. After briefly discussing the changes for my final look she did an amazing job of making me a most glamorous bride. Plus the makeup lasted the whole day through the ceremony, long photo shoot and dinner with our guests. I still looked as if I had just been madeover! My pictures look great and am super delighted with the wonderful service given. When planning my Wedding I was trying to make my Wedding a beautiful yet cost effective day and without a doubt the best money spent was having my makeup done by Lillibeth as it made me feel amazing and beautiful.
Thank you again

I wanted a really natural look, and that’s what Lillybeth achieved. It’s essential to have a trial run to find the look that you’re happy with; and it also means everything runs smoothly on the day. Lillybeth and her hair dresser had my maid of honor, flower-girl and myself done inside an hour and a half; which meant we had time to relax before the ceremony. A stress-free process I would highly recommend for any future bride to be. It’s so worth getting it done properly.

Brenda Hoskins
Bride • March 13, 2012
Lillybeth and Brooke did a fabulous job with transforming me for my special day, marrying Dave! Although I must advise, allow plenty of time for hair and makeup on the day, at least 2 hours. This is because on our trial run, we had all day if we wanted, and I felt my hair and makeup were slightly better after the trial, than on the ‘day’! Despite this, I can highly recommend Lillybeth and Brooke to any bride, first time youngan, or second time round beauty (who is also wiser)! Thanks Lillybeth and Brooke, next time I need your services (and it won’t be a 3rd wedding, this one’s for keeps) will be an occasion where I’m not necessarily ‘centre piece’! Cheers and thanks again, Brenda Mumby

I would definitely recommend her.

Lillybeth did a fantastic job for myself and my three bridesmaids. The makeup lasted really well throughout the night and we all had samples of the lip colour given to us by Lillybeth so we could top up. Little bit of advice - the makeup does last really well so dont leave yourself till last or you may feel a little rushed or that you have only had the same or less amount of time spent on you as the bridesmaids

Vanessa Stevens
Bride • February 28, 2012
Lillybeth is an amazing make up artist!
I had a trial with her a couple of days before the wedding which enabled us to work out what colours did and didn’t work on me. After the trial I found that the make up was a little too heavy for my liking and I was able to openly approach her about the make up and with suggestions and photos of looks that I would like to incorporate in. Lillybeth was very receptive to this feedback and on the day did a fantastic job. I felt like a movie star with flawless make up and beautiful and natural looking false eyelashes.
Lillybeth also did the make up for my mother, bridesmaids and mother in law - they all turned out fantastic with her really working towards all their facial strengths.
The make up lasted the entire day (from 10am - 12PM) and I only touched up the lip stick once (with the very pratical lip stick ear buds she had prepared).
She is very professional yet friendly and obviously knows what she is doing.
Thank you so much for doing a wonderful job on me, it really did add that little bit extra to my day!

Lillybeth did a fabulous job of fitting me in at the last minute to do my makeup. My makeup looked fabulous, as did the rest of the bridal-party, bride, and mothers of the bride and groom. Great attention to detail, we were each treated as individuals, and the looks she created for us were complimentry to our skin tones and personal styles. Friendly and personable, I would definitely recommend her talents to anyone requiring the services of a professional makeup artist.

It was light and natural but lasted well all day in the hot sun. She was happy to talk through ideas and try different things, and on the day she made me and my 2 bridesmaids feel comfortable and gorgeous!
Thank you so much!

Lillybeth, you did a fantastic job of my makeup at last week’s family wedding. I was the mother of the groom, and the celebrant, and wanted a slightly glammed up, but definitely professional look - and you got the look absolutely perfect! It was wonderful on such a busy day to not have to worry about my make-up, I would recommend having that done professionally for such an occasion every time. I felt great and best of all my makeup lasted perfectly all night, even with some pretty intense dancing. Thanks so much Lillybeth for the look, and for your professional yet friendly manner - it kept everyone relaxed but confident that they would look amazing.

Lillybeth did such an amazing job of the girls’ makeup for our wedding. I was a bit unsure about getting my makeup done professionally, but am so so glad that I did! I could never have made it look as good as Lillybeth. I had four bridesmaids and each of them looked absolutely stunning. She is a real perfectionist and took her time to make sure everyone was happy, but to be honest, we were all completely happy with what she did and none of us wanted her to change anything.
I would VERY HIGHLY recommend Lillybeth for wedding makeup.

Thank you to Julie for doing such beautiful makeup for myself, my bridesmaids and my mother at my recent wedding. We had many compliments during the day on how gorgeous we looked, and Julie was able translate my vision into a fantastic look for all of us. She was wonderful to chat to and kept us all relaxed while working in well with our hairdresser. It was well worth the money we paid - even with an hours travel time each way factored in! I will definitely be recommending her and Lillybeth/A Beautiful Education to friends and family.

Lilybeth was amazing! She worked so hard to get just what I wanted - we did two trials because I was sooo picky - and on the day it looked awesome! Lasted all day, great colours, the lashes were a fab touch too! I was sooo happy! Thank-you!
Very lovey and very professional!

Lillybeth did the make-up for myself and my bridesmaid and it looked fantastic! It was exactly what I had hoped for - that special look for my special day.
Everyone commented on how fantastic the make-up was and it looks great in the photo’s - would recommend the little false eye lashes. The make-up lasted the whole day without needing a touch up (and I only needed to reapply the lipstick once).
If you are wanting to look special on your wedding day then most definitely use Lillybeth!

I was so pleased to have Kym do my make up on my wedding day. It was the first time I had my make up done professionally as I never usually wear make up. So I wanted a natural look. I put my full trust in Kym’s professional judgement as to what would work for me best and she was fantastic! I had a make up trial beforehand and it made things much easier on the day. Kym also did a fantastic job on my 3 bridesmaids, my mother and mother-in-law. What was especially great, was that the make up lasted all night…even with the many tears of joy that flowed throughout the day. Kym was easy to talk to and she has a great artistic eye. I felt like a princess on the day. Thank you so much Kym!

Couldn’t be happier with my makeup by Lillybeth on my wedding day. She managed to do mine, 5 bridesmaids, my mum and 2 sisters by herself with plenty of time to spare. We all had a photo finish that lasted all day and the whole process was fun.

On December 1st I had a wedding make up and hair trial with both Lilybeth and Brooke. I walked away from the experience feeling confident that I was going to look amazing for my wedding in 2 days time. On December 3rd Lilybeth and Brooke came to Waihi beach to do my hair and make up as well as my 3 bridesmaids hair and make up. I was absolutely impressed with how friendly both Brooke and Lilybeth were… We all chatted away like long lost friends! In saying that they were also highly professional and did excellent jobs on all 4 of us. Having both my hair and make up done by Brooke and Lilybeth made me feel really beautiful on my special day. I had lots of comments on how wonderful my hair and make up looked.. A true testimonial would be the photo’s I will send to verify this review- I highly recommend looking at the photo’s to get a true grasp of seriously how good these two ladies are! I wish you both the very best… Thank you so much!

Lillybeat did a great job on my makeup. She listened to what i wanted and talked with me about what she felt would look good. I had full trust in her and it totally paid off - i felt like a million dollars on my wedding day. My make up lasted all day & night, and was also easy to take off once we ended the night. Overall experience was awesome with A beautiful education and I would have no problem in recommending Lillybeth to anyone needed their make up done. Thanks heaps!!!

Lillybeth was absolutely great!!!! I rarely wear make up due to time restraints with my children and limited time before work but when she had finished my makeup for my wedding I couldnt help but cry because she made me feel just amazing for my wedding day and after the wedding my husband said he was blown away to see the girl he fell in love with looking so beautiful.
Highly recommend to all Lillybeth is just wonderful

I had complete trust in Lillybeth from the moment I met her - she is a true professional. My makeup looked fantastic and lasted all day. I was most impressed by how Lillybeth transformed my Mum! My Mum had never had her makeup done professionally before, and was sceptical - but Lillybeth did an amazing job and my Mum looked stunning! Thank you so much Lillybeth, you really took care of all of us and we had nothing to worry about we could just enjoy the day!

WOW….you know I was rather sceptical when going with a makeup artist BUT Lillybeth put all my worries at ease and even when at the last moment I decide to change my style & colours of makeup on the day it wasn’t a problem….I put my beautiful wedding day in her magnificent artistic hands doing what she really does best in making my makeup and me feel like a million dollar!!! I’m SO grateful to have chosen & have had the experience of Lillybeth’s talent. Myself & my bridesmaids looked & felt stunning all day & until the wee small hours of the morning. Long lasting - that is true, Flawless - as she says and Gorgeous - is how you’re going to feel once she’s done. Do I recommend Lillybeth?? OF COURSE, DON’T look any further, Lillybeth is truly who you want & need on any special occasion!!!! Thank you so much. PS: I will be using you again for any other special events that may come up!

Lilly-Beth did an amazing job with my make up, as well as my bridesmaids and mum’s. The make up stayed on all day in the smouldering heat and didn’t need touching up at all.

Lilybeth was fantastic. My husband and I had a secret wedding so the look I needed had to suit my party wear and my wedding dress. Lilybeth found the perfect look and I couldnt have been happier. I had so many lovely comments. I can not say thank you enough.

Lillybeth did everything she could to accomodate my needs. She conducted two “practices” - I wasn’t quite completely taken with the first one, and she was happy to re-do it. She listened to what I wanted and got it spot on! The same with my bridesmaids. She got up really really early to accomodate our timing and came to the hairdressers with us. She was brilliant and helpful, professional and she did a fabulous job. I felt absolutely beautiful and our wedding photos turned out stunning. Our wedding lasted all day and the makeup looked fantastic from start to finish. Only the lipstick needed touching up - which she provided for us in a wee tester card. Very thoughtful and helpful. Thank you Lillybeth!
