Thank you so much Annette for your amazing work on the morning of my wedding!! Not only did you make my 3 bridesmaids, my Mam and I look the best we ever have..you also were extremely professional and calm throughout the morning! It was such a pleasure meeting you and the wedding morning felt like a lovely pampering session with my best girls, (exactly what I wanted!) Thank you! xx

Annette O'Brien is an exceptionally skilled make-up artist and a pleasure to have on a photoshoot. Her attention to detail, professional attitude and ability to follow a brief creatively stood out on the day. Annette's relaxed and friendly energy makes her an artist I would highly recommend and someone I look forward to working with again.

Annette was just the kindest, most gentle lady greeting me bright and early on the morning of our wedding!She knew exactly what kind of look would suit everyone in the bridal party and was so lovely to my Mom when choosing a make up look with her even though she’s not a big wearer of make up! The bridesmaids were just so beautiful and all had a slightly different look to suit each one. My makeup was flawless and looked fabulous in the wedding pictures! Anyone wanting a make-up artist that listens to what the bridal party want and knows what will or won’t suit them, look no further than Annette! She’s a gem! ❤️

Going on the Late Late Show is such a big deal, I wanted to ensure my makeup looked perfect. Annette's gentle manner was incredibly soothing, she made me feel so relaxed. She really listened to what I wanted and I was thrilled with the results. She made me look like myself. (Only a hundred times more attractive!) I would highly recommend Annette and look forward to working with her again.

Annette was my make up artist at my wedding last week. I absolutely cannot recommend Annette highly enough, she succeeded in making me look like myself only better and my two beautiful bridesmaids looked stunning. She also handled both mothers who don’t ever wear make up brilliantly and they both looked a amazing. I will definitely be using Annette for any events I have, she is an amazing person as well as make up artist. Thanks Annette!

Annette done myself and bridal party september 2011, she's an outstanding make-up artist, when you see what she does you do not have to look any further. She has such a relaxing atmosphere on the day of wedding and aims to all your needs. I'd highly recommend Annette and her team to be part of your wedding preparations (its one less thing to have to stress about at least you know you will look good when she's finished with you) lol. Thanks Annette

Annette literally made my wedding day!! She travelled to Doonbeg and did 8 makeups and mine on her own and everyone looked like a beauty queen!! When I saw everyone together looking so amazing I cried! I was so overwhelmed by the beauty of it all that I couldn't even concentrate on my own look for the day. Annette had to pin me down and do me up.... she did the most perfect job! Her energy is amazing and she lights up the room!! I wish I could do it all again!

Annette was such a fantastic person to do my make up for my wedding. The make up was beautiful but more importantly she was so lovely to have as part of my big day. I recently had Annette to do my make up for a commercial event that I was doing and I loved it. Annette had a great understanding of the event and the make up suited it perfectly. If only she could do my make up everyday!

Wow what can I say about Annette! She was an absolute dream from the very first email to the day of my wedding. Annette was so professional but fun during our trial, tried and tested every colour and technique I wanted! Nothing was left behind and I even picked up some really lovely tips from my own day time make up! The day of the wedding I of course changed my mind to the trial and Annette took it in her stride! I felt like a princess for the whole day and looked the same at 4am the following day as I had that morning! My bridesmaids and Mother looked amazing and just like a more beautiful version of themselves! I am trying to think of other occasions I can treat myself to using Annette again!
Annette, you are truly amazing at what you do, a professional and artist. All the best with your amazing career!

Wow. Just wow!! Cannot thank Annette enough for how beautiful she made me feel! She brought a sense of calm to the wedding morning (Aug 2021), doing my 5 bridesmaids, mum, and sister in law, without one bit of stress! It was like having an extra family member there she jus slotted right in! Couldn't recommend her enough! So professional and an absolute pleasure to deal with!!! 10/10 Can't wait to see the photographers pics!!!!
