Make-up By Elisa Full Description
A woman’s wedding day is one of the most important days of her life. There are many reasons why I feel you should treat yourself to a Professional Hair and Make-up Artist on your special day. Perhaps the most important is to allow yourself to put your feet up, relax, be pampered and enjoy your wedding morning with your bridal party safe in the knowledge that you are going to look and feel your absolute best, and that your hair and make-up will last the day. Included in my Bridal Hair and Make-up service is a consultation session during which we will have a chat about the look you would like to achieve on the day. I will give you advice on which styles would suit you best analysing your hair, skin tone, eye colour, shape, natural style, personality and of course match the whole look perfectly with ‘the dress’. I include in the consultation session advice on your hair and skin type and how to get the best hair and skin possible for your wedding day. Once we have taken all of this into consideration we can move into the trial, this is where we will create a look that is personal and unique to you and will give you the confidence to shine on your wedding day. As wedding mornings can be very busy I find that it is best to have a separate Make-up Artist and a Hair Stylist so that there is enough time for everyone to be pampered accordingly. For this reason I work closely with a selection of excellent Hair Stylist's that I would recommend highly, I am also happy to work alongside a Hair Stylist of your choosing if that is what you would prefer.

WOW - Elisa is absolutely AMAZING!
WOW - Elisa is absolutely AMAZING!! From my trial to the wedding day she made me feel at ease and did a better job than I could have ever have imagined! She's kind and professional and I would recommend her to anybody looking for a make-up artist. She made myself, my mum and my 3 bridesmaids all look incredible and feel a million dollars. I cannot count how many compliments we had which made us feel super confident all day long. Even through all the tears it stayed put all day! Great personality, Great professionalism and Great Make- up!! THANK YOU

Elisa is actually amazing!
Elisa is actually amazing! Myself and all my bridemaids felt so pleased with our makeup for my wedding day- I could not recommend more. As someone with quite tempermental, spotty skin and with the constant panic of it being at its worse for the big day, i'd no need to worry with Elisa as she surely does work her magic on all skin types. She works wonders quickly and not only is she highly talented but she is also the lovliest lady too! Thank you so much for making me feel super confident and wonderful and the lashes are a must have!! Hope to have my make up done again soon!! x

My make-up was flawless and I felt amazing!
I'm so glad that I chose Elisa for my make up on my wedding day! She did an incredible job both at the trial and on the day. I was worried about my make up staying in one place, but even during the rain, it stayed flawless and I looked and felt amazing. All my bridesmaids were so pleased with theirs too. We also went with Adele for our hair and were so pleased with the look she created for us all. Even better - both Elisa and Adele were also just so friendly, and brought a real fun and calming presence to the morning. Can't recommend you both enough! Thank you so much!

I can highly recommend Elisa!
Just wanted to say how happy we were with Elisa's work. It was a busy morning for Elisa with 3 mothers, 3 bridesmaids and a bride needing makeup for my son's wedding on 10th September 2015 at Great Fosters Hotel in Egham. Elisa was brilliant she was calm and even had time to do final touch ups before we all walked down the isle. Thank you very much for all your hard work. I can highly recommend Elisa!

Elisa was a superstar with our make-up!
Elisa was a superstar with the make up for our wedding. Even during the trial I instantly felt relaxed and very confident that I was going to have the look I wanted to achieve. She did my bridesmaids make up as well (4 of them) they looked absolutely stunning! She remained so calm on the morning of the wedding, and did everyone in good time. She even squeezed my mum in which was sprung on her on the morning! Elisa is professional, an excellent makeup artist and such a lovely person! Thank you so much. High recommend!

I would highly recommend Elisa
“Being a typical Virgo I have to admit I am a rather annoying perfectionist, this annoying trait was amplified when the words ‘wedding’ came into the equation. I tried and tested many make up artists, from well known make up counters, recommendations and surfing the internet, with disappointment and panic before thankfully coming across ‘Elisa’. Now luckily I have done the research for you. Without hesitation I would highly recommend Elisa, she importantly listens to what look you want to accomplish, has great advice, an amazing make up range and created wonders on myself, my three bridesmaids and my mother, all whom have very different skin and hair colorings, with a professional relaxed manner which made me feel very calm and confident on the day.”

I will definitely use Elisa for my next big event!
“Mum and I had our make up done by Elisa Drummond. My mum was worried about having too much makeup on and not looking natural. Being 65, she thought no one could make her look and feel wonderful ….then Elisa did a trial and made her look 10 years younger !! My makeup was very classic and understated yet I felt a million dollars ! Elisa knew exactly what to do with my skin type and tone and really advised me on how to get the best from my features. I still use the tips that she gave me and will always be grateful to have shared the morning of my wedding with such a talented and lovely young lady. Elisa made such a big impact by doing such beautiful makeup yet you hardly knew she was there…that’s a professional for you! All the bridesmaids were pestering Elisa for tips and help with their final touch ups and Elisa never once appeared to be bothered or lack enthusiasm to help and share her knowledge. Not only is Elisa a great makeup artist she genuinely knows her stuff and I will continue to rave about the service she offers to anyone that will listen!! Although I certainly don’t plan to get married again, I will definitely use Elisa for my next big event!”

A woman’s wedding day is one of the most important days of her life. There are many reasons why I feel you should treat yourself to a Professional Hair and Make-up Artist on your special day. Perhaps the most important reason is to allow yourself to put your feet up, relax, be pampered and enjoy your wedding morning with your bridal party safe in the knowledge that you are going to look and feel your absolute best, and that your hair and make-up will last the day.

What do you love most about your job?

I am fascinated by Hair and Make-up Artistry, it is so creative and has the ability to completely transform the person you are working with. From my first days training onwards I have been completely hooked! I started off working in TV and fashion, however progressed to specialise in Bridal Hair and Make-up, this is the area I am most passionate about. I get a real buzz out of making women look and feel beautiful and always feel very privileged when someone selects me to be a part of their special day. I love working with a bride from the initial consultation, through to creating a look that is unique and individual to her, and will make her feel confident and beautiful on one of the most important days of her life.

What is your No. 1 beauty tip for a bride?

Start taking care of your skin way ahead of the wedding day, get a good skin care regime in place, it will really pay off come the wedding day. This is something that I advise on during the trial so that brides can get the best results possible on the day meaning they will look and feel their absolute best and be camera ready.

How do you keep the bride feeling calm on her wedding day?

I have been told by many brides that I am a calming influence on what can be a stressful morning. I hope this is true, I really see my role on the morning of the wedding as an important one, I like to put together a detailed schedule for the morning so that everything runs to time and there is also spare time should we need it for any unexpected occurrences.

What advice would you give to brides to stay looking great throughout their wedding day?

This is something that I would talk through with my brides at the trial, however it's important to have a make-up touch up kit ready. The make-up that I do last's the day, but often might need to odd touch up in terms of lips and cheeks. I always supply a lip colour as part of the price for my brides and I get discounts with many brands so am always happy to pass these on to my brides and order any essential items that I think the bride might need for the day.
