Introducing Olivia Lucy

I’m Olivia, but you can call me Liv. 2026 will be my 11th year in Bridal Make-up! I have a gorgeous salon in Corfe Mullen where your Bridal trial and all your wedding beauty treatments will take place. I offer facials, brow shaping, tinting and lamination, lash lifts and lash extensions.

I have worked in countless venues around Dorset. Some timeless classics such as Parley Manor, Sopley Mill, The Italian Villa, Deans Court, Kingston Country Courtyard to name a few. I pride myself in offering a professional service from start to finish. I am punctual, organised, committed, enthusiastic and easy-going upbeat addition to your wedding morning.

I love working with open minded brides who are genuinely excited about their bridal beauty journey. If you love makeup, or even just have a real interest in it, we will be a great fit. I thrive with upbeat, happy, passionate brides who see their makeup artist as one of the suppliers they are most excited to book. I bring in techniques and treatments that give you the confidence to feel your absolute best. From subtle enhancements like a brow shape, lash lift, or spray tan, to a beautifully applied makeup look, these finishing touches can transform not only how you look but how you feel on the day.

I believe in collaboration. You will never sit in my chair and feel like decisions are made without you. We will communicate openly, tweak as we go, and work together until you feel perfect. If you are honest with me about what you love, or do not love, I will never be offended. My role is part professional artist, part cheerleader, and all about finding that balance between your comfort zone and what will truly flatter you.

When it comes to makeup styles, I can deliver everything from natural elegance to full glam. Personally, I think the sweet spot for bridal makeup lies between soft glam and glam. It is a level that photographs beautifully, lasts all day, and still looks timeless in your wedding album years later. For brides wanting an ultra natural look, I often recommend supporting treatments like lash extensions, brow shaping, skincare, or a spray tan, so you won’t fade into the background by the evening. Every choice I make is with your best result in mind.

Skin prep is also a huge focus for me. Beautiful makeup always begins with healthy, well looked after skin. Not perfect skin, but skin that is hydrated and nourished. Whether you are acne prone, mature, or somewhere in between, I can guide you with skincare tips and offer facials and consultations in my salon to help you prepare.

Ahead of your trial, I encourage brides to spend some time gathering inspiration and thinking about what you want, or do not want. I am happy to chat over phone, email, Zoom, or WhatsApp beforehand so that you arrive at your trial feeling prepared, not overwhelmed. This way, your 90 minute trial becomes a fun and creative experience where we can focus on fine tuning your perfect look.

One important note, for each booking I require the bride plus a minimum of four adults, and I only cover weddings in Dorset. If you are getting married abroad, I can travel with Sophie who offers hair and make-up as your destination dynamic duo! I have already flown to Ibiza, Marbella and Sorrento, Italy for Bridal make-up.

Your wedding day is a once in a lifetime moment. My promise is to make you feel confident, radiant, and absolutely incredible from the morning preparations until the final dance. If you are a bride who loves the awe of makeup and wants to lean into all the beauty and confidence it can bring, then we are the perfect match.
