Zoey Timney, 16th August 2023 – “Pleasure as always thanks Gemma see you next time Iā€™m due for a colour boost x”

Anonymous, 6th August 2023 – “Gemma was really knowledgeable and took the time to show me the benefits and uses of all of the products I already had. The makeup looks she taught me how to do were amazing. Her explanations and notes are really easy to follow and my makeup is looking so much better already! Thank you!”

Anita Bain, 4th August 2023 – I had a make up review/lesson with Gemma who made me immediately feel at ease. My makeup routine has stayed the same for decades Iā€™m afraid. We had a discussion about which colours suited me best and then she made my face up – with such a light look and then at the end showed me how to give my eyes a smoky effect for a more ā€˜dressed upā€™ look. I was absolutely thrilled with the end result. Gemma mostly used my own make up with no sell up whatsoever. When I was looking in the mirror, liked the person looking back at me – rather than the usual critical scowling showing all my facial faults (we all do that surely?!). I will also receive a written follow up in a day or two – going all the salient points. I completely recommend Gemmaā€™s make up skills and her way of making my session less of a lesson but more like a friendly chitchat.”

Tracey Leatherland, 4th August 2023 – “I made an appointment with Gemma to discuss microblading. She explained the whole process thoroughly, what I could expect from the treatment, recovery times and any follow ups that would be necessary. Gemma was extremely friendly and professional and I’ve immediately booked to have microblading”

Lindsay Williamson, 19th July 2023 – “Love the natural look of my brows following a microblading top up, makes such a difference and you really feel you’re in safe hands with Gemma.”

Laura Kemp, 7th July 2023 – “I absolutely love my eyebrows. Wish I had them done a long time ago. Canā€™t wait for the top up x”

Penni Samter-Smith, 5th July 2023 – “As usual Gemma was really lovely and accommodating. My daughter had changed her mind for what she wanted for her prom make-up and Gemma just took it in her stride lol! One very chuffed teenager XXX”

Chris Passman, 1st July 2023 – “Gemma is amazing & has made another splendid job of giving me eyebrows”

Lindsey Flynn, 30th June 2023 – “Thank you so much for Ellaā€™s prom makeup. She looked beautiful and she really loved the natural but glamorous look you gave her. Would highly recommend to anyone.”

Sara Porley, 31st May 2023 – “Attended Gemmaā€™s studio today for a 1:1 make up lesson. Immediately I was made to feel at ease. Gemma tailored the session to what I was hoping to learn from it and showed me how to get both a day and evening look using the make up that I already had showing me what works, what doesnā€™t and alternative suggestions. Very happy with the end result along with the knowledge and techniques shown to allow me to recreate the look. Thank you”

Elizabeth Davies, 27st May 2023 – “Had a great experience at my makeup trial with Gemma. She was lovely and really put me at ease. She definitely listened to what I was after and I was so happy with the end result. Thanks Gemma xx”

Emma Oxley, 26th May 2023 – “Gemma is a true master of her craft with skills straight from Hogwarts. I didnā€™t feel my best when I arrived for my appointment yet Gemma worked her magic and I left feeling glowy, confident and flawless. She has won numerous awards and it is not hard to see why! She is very attentive and personable and listens to what look you hope to achieve. I felt completely at ease throughout the appointment and wouldnā€™t hesitate to highly recommend Gemma.  Thanks Gemma, youā€™re an absolute superstar!”

Julie Martin, 24th March 2023 – “Gemma is so professional and so patient. She explains everything, at every stage, and really takes the time to make sure youā€™re happy and comfortable before, during and after the appointment. Itā€™s easy to see why sheā€™s won so many awards.”

Emma Williams, 20th December 2022 – “I booked Gemma for my wedding in November and wow, I’m glad I did! I’ve never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and my makeup lasted all day.  I wanted a classic, natural and glowy look that lasted all day and Gemma definitely delivered all those things and more.  Gemma was so professional and friendly and was on hand even before the wedding, if I needed anything and myself and my 3 bridesmaids loved all of our makeup.  Thanks so much Gemma, you really made my wedding day special”

Sarah Batty, 16th June 2022 – “I originally booked my bridal makeup with Gemma back in 2018! Through the pandemic and various rearrangements I wasnā€™t getting married unless Gemma was free to do my makeup! Gemmaā€™s ethic is natural enhancement and good skin care not many makeup artists like that, most just tend to layer it on thick! However Gemma is very skilled and listens to you as an individual gives advice where needed and is so patient and lovely with it too! Me and my bridal party were amazed at how good our faces looked for the day and even said on the night we hadnā€™t had to touch our faces once throughout the day and loved how light it still was on the night as if we had no makeup on ( you know when some makeup makes your face feel heavier as it wears throughout the day) ! Absolutely amazing Gemma Thankyou once again. Xxx”

Rosemary Browne, 11th June 2022 – “Fantastic. Hadn’t met Gemma before spoke me through what she was going to do and she took her time and really did a good job. Easy person to talk to.”

Kerry Wilson, 11th June 2022 – “As always Gemma was fabulous. Listens to what you want, warm and friendly. Make up always looks fabulous and lasts all day”

Clare Woodhead, 2nd June 2022 – “Amazing results. Gemma is a real artist. I was really nervous about getting my eyebrows done but she completely put me at ease, and I am so happy with the results.”

Simona Pankinaite, 4th May 2022 – “I chose Gemma because of her belief that make-up is only meant to enhance your natural features and not change how you look. After an experience with a different artist where I felt my features were changed too much, Gemma managed exactly what I had hoped for at the wedding trial and from then on I knew I could trust her.”I wanted to feel like myself on my Wedding day and I knew my guests and family would too.Gemma was such a joy to have around on the morning too. We had a great experience getting ready. The whole bridal team found her amazing and were very happy with the results. Thank you so much Gemma

Rebecca Forward, 6th April 2022 – “I highly recommend booking a tailored make-up lesson with Gemma! I was desperately looking for some inspiration having realised that I’d been doing my make-up the same way for decades and meanwhile my face shape and skin had changed. Online videos only confused me more and I’d been through so many cosmetics that didn’t work for me ā€ā™€ļø Then I found Gemma! Gemma’s lesson was really enjoyable, she put me at ease straight away and gave me lots of great tips, information and recommendations. I couldn’t believe the difference and how brilliantly Gemma’s guidance had been tailored for my needs. New lease of life and a great confidence booster, thanks Gemma! x”

Rachel Langton, 6th April 2022 – “I’ve known Gemma for alot of years so when I got married in December 2021 she was the one who I wanted to do my wedding makeup. At my bridal trial, it was the first time I had ever had my makeup done professionally and even though I knew Gemma, it didn’t stop me from being nervous. Gemma is warm and friendly and talks through everything she is doing. My makeup on the day was exactly what I wanted and lasted all day. My bridesmaids loved their makeup and even my 12 year old stepdaughter loved her mini makeup look. If you want someone who knows their stuff and is warm, friendly, listens to you and is professional, then Gemma is the makeup artist you want. I can’t wait for another occasion to come up so I can go back.”

Polly Findlay, 2nd April 2022 – “I canā€™t recommend or thank Gemma enough! Having had my first micro blading session, I am beyond pleased with the results. To say I was nervous would be an understatement. Finding a consultant who I could trust and who made me feel totally at ease was of paramount importance. Gemma went through everything so clearly making me feel totally at ease. The end results are amazing. Can not recommend Gemma enough. Fantastic!! Amazing results.”

Debbie Moore, 5th March 2022 – “I had previously treated myself to a voucher for one of Gemmaā€™s make up tutorials and was very excited for the session.It didnā€™t disappoint! The session was very informative and Gemma made me feel really relaxed in her lovely studio in Guisborough.She shared lots of useful tips and showed me how I could use the different make up brushes that I had also purchased from her. I would definitely recommend those too – Theyā€™re gorgeous! Thanks for a great afternoon, Gemma. X”

Julie Briggs, 4th February 2022 – “I was lucky enough to receive a gift voucher to have a Lash lift and tint done by Gemma. Every step of the process was first class from booking an appointment, advice on not being able to wear eye make up or get my eyes wet for 24 after the treatment so to make sure the appointment day and time was suitable enough. Gemma was so professional from the minute I walked in to the moment I left. I was made to feel really comfortable and she explained every step of the process so I knew exactly what was happening. The results were AMAZING I never leave the house without mascara but they look so good I don’t need to put any on. I’m looking forward to doing my make up tomorrow and seeing the full effect of the lift. Thank you Gemma I’m super happy with them.”

Ruth Collings, 3rd February 2022 – “After a surprise present from my daughter of a make up lesson with Gemma, I wondered what was in store!From going into Gemmaā€™s studio to leaving it was relaxing and fun. I value the help and tips she gave to help me look the best version of myself. I can also recommend the lovely soft brush set she has, a real investment!”

Rachel Collings, 1st February 2022 – “Gemma recently delivered the most amazing tailored make up lessons for me and my mum at her Guisborough based studio!As two women of differing ages, me & mum had slightly different skin considerations and ideas on the ‘look’ we wanted, but were exactly the same in terms of our self-confessed ‘zero clue’ status on make up know-how. Gemma soon turned that around with a real back to basics on skincare, products, tools and techniques. We both left with all the know-how we needed to achieve a simple, naturally glowing look that we could take from day to night with ease.  If you too haven’t a clue what you’re doing with the contents of your make up bag – get yourself over to Gemma for an unintimidating and fun-filled class. You won’t regret it!”

Ingrid Gallagher, 26th January 2022 – “I really appreciate your advice and help. never having the opportunity to avail myself of your services personally due to the fact that I am in wales and you are in the North of England, I have found your videos invaluable and when I contacted you was delighted with the practical sound advice you gave me.At 63 I managed to find a product to help with my acne rosacea and get my confidence back. not only was there not a cost but you afforded me the luxury of your discount with look fantastic. Many thanks again and even though some of the videos are out of my age , I find the tips so helpful, from cleansing to moisturising and just those little extras to apply which make a difference to my feeling about how I look at my age. Well done and thanks”

Karen Neilson, 26th January 2022 – “I was lucky enough to have Gemma as my makeup artist for my wedding day. I had 4 very different bridesmaids and Gemma listened to what they liked to wear and gave them a similar look but a variation in lipstick colour. Everyone was so happy with their look & felt like they looked special.  I was so happy with my bridal makeup which was subtle but with a hint of glamour. I love Gemma’s totally honest and friendly manner. She also has great product knowledge and recommendations.Since my wedding, I have been back to Gemma for a makeup lesson where I was given a step by step guide of how to create a day and night look. This was a great experience and was followed up with notes which I can follow at home. I have also had occasion makeup done for a night look which I loved too.Thankyou so much Gemma for a great service!”

Leanne McVey, 1st January 2022 – “Gemma was my MUA for our wedding, for the day she had three bridesmaids, my mum and of course me. She couldnā€™t have listened more to what each of us would like, my mum and sister wanted a minimal look as they do not wear make up normally and they were over the moon with it and looked stunning. I absolutely loved my own make up, I felt like me but much more special, it was perfect! Thank you Gemma”

Andrea Degnan, 21st December 2021 – “Gemma did my mother of the bride makeup in July. I donā€™t usually wear make up so was quite apprehensive but Gemma did a wonderful job. The makeup felt so light and lasted the full day/night. It was so natural. She also did a stunning job for the bride and her bridesmaids. Thank you Gemma x”

Lynn Swales, 31st October 2021 – “Gemma did my makeup for my daughters wedding. She put me at easy straight away, very professional, friendly and didnt mind giving me helpful tips. Gemma pushed me out of my comfort zone with colour and I loved it. Fabulous! Thank you so much!”

Suzi Cutler, 13th August 2020 – “Gemma is incredibly talented, friendly and adaptable makeup artist!  She is entirely professional from booking, discussing the look you want to achieve through to the application.  I not only trust Gemma with my makeup for special occasions but also with semi-permanent makeup.  Now that’s trust! (Her Microblading skills are phenomenal!).  Recently Gemma has had to put down the brushes and adapt to these challenging times – but this hasn’t stopped her working.  Her online presence has rocketed (my bank balance has plummeted by buying all the products she tests and recommends) and her editorial posts are simply inspiring.  I booked in a makeup session for my niece for her school prom but sadly it got cancelled due to Covid-19 so I rebooked it for her 16 birthday earlier this month.  Rather than let her client down Gemma suggested an online bespoke consultation where she talked me through the makeup application and gave us both a load of beauty tips along the way!  Now I’m no MUA but together we did a fantastic job and her client left feeling a million dollars! A job well done.”

Owen Smith, 13th August 2020 – “I have worked with Gemma numerous times and what can I say?  One of the most creative minds I have ever come across.  She is one of the loveliest people I have ever met.  Incredibly professional.  Not only that though.  Before I met Gemma I personally had no confidence but through meeting and working with her I have now gained it.  I am forever thankful and couldn’t recommend her enough.  She is amazing at her profession.”

Helen Newman, 13th August 2020 – “Brilliant advice and fun Q&A sessions, especially during lockdown, where you feel you can ask any question and you would get a genuine discussion and response.”

Charlene Offer, 12th August 2020 – “Thank you for your consistency in your live chats.  I can’t pop on every time but knowing if I miss one, you be there the next time is great as its been so good to be able to ask questions and get answers about potential beauty purchases since I’ve not been physically going shopping to able to test or talk to someone”

Hannah Whittingham, 20th July 2020 – “I booked Gemma for my wedding makeup, for myself and 5 bridesmaids.  From the moment I met Gemma for the trial I immediately felt at ease.  She took the time to go through what makeup I would normally use and what kind of look I wanted on the big day.  Our makeup was flawless and still looked amazing even after ceilidh dancing all night at the wedding.  I would highly recommend Gemma and will definitely look to see if she is available for makeup lessons and any for any future events!”

Sophie Simpson, 22nd March 2020 – “Gemma did my Wedding make up on Feb 29th. (As well as 4 bridesmaids and mum), we all looked and felt amazing, Gemma really made is the best version of ourselves, such a flawless natural beautiful look we all went for and it was perfect. Gemma was also really helpful before booking, and after booking before the wedding and when I would drop her a message nothing was too much trouble. So glad Gemma was recommended to me .

On the day, Gemma did different makeup styles for everyone, listening to what everybody wanted and creating looks that we were all over the moon with (even those who donā€™t usually feel comfortable wearing makeup). Gemma is more than a makeup artist, she is a beautiful person and I am so so glad she was with us on the morning of my wedding! Gemma, I cannot thank you enough! xxx”

She was patient with my lack of makeup knowledge and taught me me all the basics plus smokey eyes which I never thought I would be able to do. She was down to earth and honest about products in terms of what to spend money on and when cheaper stuff is fine (she doesnā€™t sell products so it felt like this was all genuine advice from her years of experience). She advised what works best for my skin and colourings and encouraged me to try new things with eye shadow and I was really pleased with the result. Left feeling great and excited to practice more.
