Fiona Andrea Burns Make-Up Artist Testimonials

I booked Fiona to do my wedding make-up in July 08. I was really impressed with the trial session, where, not only did I look fantastic, but Fiona went through my likes and dislikes regarding my make-up as well as colour schemes, hair colour (bridesmaids) and skin types.
Although she had about 45 miles to drive, she arrived early and made myself and my two bridesmaids look fabulous.
Despite it being a warm day, I didnt have to touch up my make-up once and it looked just as good at the end of the night as it did that morning. Im used to wearing make-up, but ive never managed to make myself look the way Fiona made me look - I felt gorgeous that day.
Fiona is a lovely person and Id recommend her to everyone. Ill be going back as soon as i have a special occassion planned.

Fiona did my make up along with my four bridesmaids for my wedding day. She did an absolutely amazing job and we were all really pleased at how it turned out. She listened to what we wanted and she made us all look very natural. I usually would touch up my make up quite often on nights out but didnt have to touch up my make up the whole day. Everybody commented on how lovely it was. We all felt very relaxed and at ease and even when I got a bit emotional she was very understanding, even though she had to reapply practically all my make up ! I highly recommend Fiona for any occasion and I will definitely have her do my make up again in the future! Thanks again Fiona!

I booked Fiona to do my wedding make-up on 25 April 2008, as a result of being let down by another makeup artist. Despite only contacting Fiona a few weeks before the wedding, she was able to fit me in & was entirely flexible on the dates for my trial etc...she actually came to my house one evening to do the trial, which made things much easier. I was unsure what i want but Fiona was great at recommending a look that would suit me - she even did each eye in a different style, so i could pick which one i liked best. On the day itself, Fiona was brilliant - calm, efficient and the end result was gorgeous - very fresh and natural looking. Although i was really happy with the trial, i think the makeup on the day looked even better. Fiona also did the makeup for my 3 bridesmaids, who all looked great too (my 10 year old flower girl also got a light dusting of makeup at no extra charge, which she loved!). The makeup lasted all day & so many people commented on how good it looked. I would have no problem recommending Fiona to any other brides-to-be, as she provides a very professional service and definitely knows her stuff! Would most definitely use her services again in the future.......thanks.

When I was recommended to Fiona (to get my make up done for a formal) I was extremely impresses with her very personal but professional service. She did a beautiful job, and not only did I look and feel great, but my make up remained flawless all night. I felt very confident and comfortable with Fiona and would definately recommend her to anyone and everyone! She is very talented, friendly and resonable and I will definately being using her again in the future!

After reading other reviews about Fiona, I decided to book her to do my makeup for my wedding in Nov 07 and I was not disappointed! After my trial, she took on board any queries or concerns that I had and I was delighted with the end result which easily lasted the whole day. She was always polite and very accomodating after having to squeeze in an extra person at the last minute. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Fiona did my make up for me on my wedding day. I was very happy with the natural, flawless look that Fiona created for me. Fiona was friendly and professional in her approach and i would have no problem in recommending her to anyone!

I contacted Fiona about doing my make up for a work Christmas ʼdoʼ. I never wear make up and wouldnʼt have a clue where to start! Fiona asked me to complete a short questionnaire by e-mail so that she could get an idea of face shape, hair and eye colour etc and what sort of look I would like. She is very professional and friendly and explained the application process as she went along. I was delighted with my new look and was complemented lots that evening! I felt very glamorous and would have no hesitation in booking Fiona again.

Fiona did my make-up on my wedding day, along with my sisterʼs, my bridesmaidʼs and my Mumʼs. She was very professional and really knew what she was doing. I would highly recommend her to anyone and will definitely be using her again. Thanks Fiona.

I have known Fiona for a number of years, so when it comes to getting any "work done" (talking strictly temporary make up solutions here - she is not a surgoen!!!) she is the obvious choice, in fact the only choice. Fiona is not only a true professional but a great make up artist who will make you look great, feel at ease and who knows, you might even have a laugh along the way. Fionaʼs hints and tips go beyond the mundane, usual blurr of information that most salons will offer and they donʼt just stop with the gals!!! Fiona has a few tricks up her sleeves for us guys too. If your reading this you are obviously interested in procuring her services, so go on, give fiona a call, you will never look and feel better

I cannot put into words how pleased I was with my make-up on my wedding day. I wanted to look like myself but just look that extra bit special for the day itself and that is exactly what Fiona gave me. My skin looked flawless and radiant in all of the photos and it lasted all day and night without the need for any touch ups at all, apart from the odd touch of lipstick, which she had given me a sample of.
When I began planning my wedding I wasn’t going to have my make-up done professionally as I was a bit sceptical and decided to do it myself. However, looking back choosing Fiona was one of the best decisions I made as there was no way I couldʼve created the look that made me feel so special and confident walking up the aisle. Fiona is very talented and very professional and I trusted her completely. She also has a great personality, very easy to talk to and extremely bubbly which really added to the excitement of the morning. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Fiona did my wedding make up in August 07. I was extremely impressed with her talent. She is very pleasant and easy to talk to. She makes you feel very comfortable and is very easy going. Iʼm not a big make up person so when I asked her to make me look natural and glowing, thats exactly what she did. Perfect.

have booked Fiona for my up coming wedding on the 29th December ʼ07. I had a trial for my bridesmaids. What can I say Fiona dosenʼt just put make-up on, what she does
is truely an art............ I havenʼt had my trial yet but after
seeing her at work I have no worries at all and cannot wait
to see my face transformed.
With my 3 bridesmaids she tried 3 different looks so I was
able to pick which one suited best.
If you are thinking of booking Fiona for your wedding or special occasion, she will not disappoint, I will definitly
use her services again in the future.......

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for to Fiona for doing such a wonderful job on my make-up for my wedding on Friday 24th August 2007.

I was so pleased with myself and my bridesmaids make-up and even mum was (which is a first!) it was perfect and I have had so many compliments from the guests about how much they liked it. It was important to me to have my make-up applied properly and Fiona did such an amazing job - it stayed on ALL day and ALL night and there wasnʼt a trace of a spot or red flushes in sight - I was so so so pleased.

It was lovely having Fiona around in the morning as well Not only is she professional she is a very down to earth girl- she definitely helped to keep me calm.

So Iʼm writing this to say thanks again - I want everyone to know what a brilliant job she did and I shall be singing her praises to anyone and everyone who will listen! I canʼt reccomend her highly enough - A very talented make-up artist who gave me the most flawless and natural look that I wanted for my big day.

Fiona did my make-up for my wedding day and honestly added fun & excited to the whole experience, from the initial booking, to the trial, right through to the big day. Fiona is pleasant, professional and friendly and I would highly recommend her services to anyone. In addition, my make-up was everything I had wished for, natural, flawless and lasted the whole day! Thanks again Fiona.

Fiona was the makeup artist for my wedding in July. She made the whole experience a hundred times easier, working her appointments to suit my needs and not hers. I truly believe that no other makeup artist could have done a better job. In fact, my granny has NEVER worn makeup before and after Fiona did some she liked it so much she has started to recreate the look herself. I never had to reapply my makeup once and neither did any of my girls. In my oppinion she doesnʼt charge enough... But donʼt tell her that! Lol!

I used Fionaʼs services for my school formal in november 2006. I would highly reccommend her services to anyone going to a special event as she did a wonderful job. She was friendly and applied make-up according to my needs. As well as being very talented, Fiona talked me through all of the make-up that she used and made me feel completely at ease.

I used fionaʼs services for my wedding in July and was very happy with the results. Fiona is a very talented, friendly person who listened to my ideas as well as offering sound advice. I will most definetly recommend Fiona to my friends and family in the future.

I cannot recommend fiona highly enough, she did an absolutely fantastic job on myself and my 3 bridesmaids for my Wedding in April. She made us all feel relaxed and at ease, especially as I was feeling a little anxious on the morning. The make-up was perfect, exactly what I wanted and best of all it stayed on the entire day, without looking iike it had been applied with a trowel. Only my lippy needed touching up and thanks to fiona again, she had even provided me with a sample of this. The day went really well and Iʼm just glad that I had fiona to do my make-up, when I look at my photoʼs, I myself have to say I do look every inch the beautiful bride all thanks to fiona and her magic touch.......THANK YOU.

My name is Lucy Thornton and I am a full time mother of 3 young children. I havenʼt really applied make-up in the last 6 yrs as I donʼt have the time. However I was going to a Black Tie event and decided to treat myself.
I was a little anxious at first, but Fiona made me feel at ease
with her bubbly persona so all my worries were laid to rest. I have to say my make-over with Fiona was an extremely enjoyable experience.
She listened attentively to my needs and talked through the whole make-up procedure with me. I was amazed at the transformation. To say my husband was pleased was an understatement!
All in all an experience well worth every penny and I cannot recommend Fiona highly enough. She is a very talented artist who will make you look and feel gorgeous whatever the occasion.

My name is Lucy Thornton and I am a full time mother of three young children. I havenʼt really applied make-up in the last six years as I neither have the time nor the inclination.
However I was going out for a special occasion and decided to treat myself. I was a little apprehensive at first, as I have had my make-up done before and looked like I had been in the boxing ring with Mike Tyson. However Fiona made me feel at ease with her bubbly persona so all my worries were laid to rest.
I have to say my make-over with Fiona was an extremely enjoyable experience. She listened attentively to my needs and talked through the whole make-up procedure with me, she even tidied up my eyebrows, which hadnʼt seen tweezers for a considerably long time too.
When I finally saw the new me, I was amazed at the transformation, it still looked like me but a more stunning look. To say my husband was pleased was an understatement!!!
