MY STORY

Welcome to Nicola Honey Artistry! Thanks for stopping by—I’m so excited to share a little bit about myself and my journey to see if I’m the right fit to be part of your special day.

From a young age, I’ve always been a bit of an artistic soul. Whether I was drawing, painting, or creating, I was happiest when I had a blank canvas to work with. Watching something come to life and turn into a piece of art is still one of my greatest joys.

As a teen, I got into performing arts, and that’s when I discovered the magic of theatrical makeup. It didn’t take long for me to realize that makeup wasn’t just about enhancing beauty—it was about self-expression. That’s when I knew that a career full of brushes, creativity, and helping people feel amazing was the path for me!

What truly excites me about makeup is its power to transform how you feel. It’s all about confidence, empowerment, and making you feel like the best version of yourself. Helping people radiate beauty, inside and out, is what fuels my passion every single day.

I'm a proud makeup geek with over 25 years of experience, based in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, U.K. I’ve worked with some of the best in the business, including over 12 years with MAC, and had the privilege of working at London Fashion Week alongside legends like Sharon Dowsett, Lisa Butler, and Terry Barber on major runway shows. From fashion shoots to global events, I’ve traveled the world, perfecting my craft and making people look and feel incredible!

But what really gets me excited is Bridal makeup. There’s something magical about helping you feel your most stunning and unique on your wedding day. I’m all about creating a look that’s flawless, timeless, and most importantly—you. You’re not just getting a beautiful bridal look; you’re getting one that makes you feel authentic and confident.

I’ve got a huge range of high-quality products to suit every skin type, and I’m always researching the latest products and techniques to keep my skills fresh. I believe in working closely with each bride to create a style that matches your personality, so you feel amazing all day (and in all those photos!). Plus, my services include a trial to make sure we’re 100% in sync before the big day!

Let’s make your wedding day unforgettable, together, with a look that’s as unique and fabulous as you are!
