Your Yorkshire Wedding - September/October 2020 (Issue 44)

Tell us about your company… I’m a freelance hair and make-up artist, specialising in weddings. I adore playing a part in helping to make your special day perfect. What’s your top beauty advice for brides? Make sure you choose your suppliers well as this will help you relax and feel in control with great people beside you. Also, always have a hair and make-up trial to ensure you’re happy with the look you’re trying to achieve and how the wedding morning will run. What’s your favourite way to relax and have some me-time? I enjoy long walks with my two lovely labradors to take time out from the fast lane! I’ll often think of things I need to do while walking so I jot them down in my notes on my phone to refer back to. Louise Fawcett | Louise Fawcett Hair and Makeup Artist  | www.facebook.com/louisefawcetthairandmakeupartist Tell us about your company… We’re a bridal boutique in Skipton, stocking 80 high-quality bridal gowns at affordable prices. We pride ourselves on our friendly, honest and down-to-earth service. What’s your top dress-buying hack? Finding your dream dress is a wonderful but sometimes difficult process. I always say that when choosing your gown, you should always listen to your first instinct. What’s your favourite way to relax and have some me-time? I think it’s important to relax, so I like to read, do some cross-stitching and go swimming. Mandy Abramson | Cinderella’s | www.dreamdress.co.uk www.lyns eydoranphotography.com Tell us about your company… My aim is to provide my brides with an impeccable service, from the moment they contact me to the final make-up on their wedding day. I’m always on hand to provide skincare and make-up advice to my clients. What’s your top beauty hack? I’d strongly recommend not to try any new skincare or make-up products too close to the big day – especially if you have sensitive skin. If you want a particular treatment, trial it a few months beforehand. On the day, don’t be tempted to follow a new make- up trend; keep it classic and timeless. What’s your favourite way to relax and have some me-time? It doesn’t sound relaxing, but I love running to clear my head and keep fit. Yoga is also very relaxing after a hectic wedding morning.
