Leicester, Leicestershire, Leicestershire
I first launched my freelance business in Leicester over 10 years ago, where I worked on a number of magazine shoots and editorial work. This was how I was found and approached by MAC Cosmetics, who I’d worked with for 10 years (left august 2018) there after, developing my skills and qualifications until I was the highest qualified makeup artist for MAC in Leicester, and recognised as a brand product specialist.

Manisha is an exceptional make-up and hair artist. I booked Manisha for my Wedding and Reception in July 2018. I booked her without a trial as I had heard amazing comments about her work. When I went for my trial, I was nervous and excited at the same time. Manisha made me feel at home and comfortable. On my wedding day, Manisha was on time both in the morning and the afternoon. She made me look like a beautiful queen and I didn't stop getting compliments on the day and after the wedding had finished. She was absolutely amazing and easy to work with. I let Manisha create her own hair style and make up look for me and she got it spot on! It was so lovely working with her and getting to know her. I would definitely recommend her and I would always book her for upcoming events when I need too. More...

Manisha did my hair and make-up for my wedding in July 2018 and I literally have no words! I looked exactly like I wanted. I couldn't have pictured myself better. I had a make-up trial beforehand and told Manisha of my worries, my likes & dislikes; she catered to me and the information I had given. My skin looked flawless, and my hair and make-up did not move at all! Manisha is actually incredible! Not just her work but the support given to me leading up to the wedding as well as on the day. I am so so so happy that I chose to go with Manisha, I'll definitely be booking her for future events!! More...

Manisha did my hair and make up for all of my wedding events and pre wedding photoshoot. She is such a lovely lady and made me feel very comfortable and completely at ease. When it came to my last couple of events I didn't even tell her what kind of look I wanted, just told her to go with what she thought would work on me as I trusted her vision and she did a fantastic job (once again!) Each look was different for each event which shows what a great make up artist she is. Thank you so much and I will definitely be recommending you to anyone who needs hair and make up doing! xxx More...

I had the pleasure of meeting Manisha prior to my sister's wedding. We discussed the different looks, colours for the different events and she had lots of great ideas and was open to suggestions- I even sent her images of the looks I liked.
I couldn't wait for her to make me over for the wedding. So the day finally arrived. Manisha arrived promptly with her bag full of make up and lots of enthusiasm. She began her work and within no time she was finished. She was efficient, friendly and very passionate about her work even at 5am in the morning. Her work is immaculate. Both my mum and myself were extremely pleased with our looks. Manisha made us all look stunning and completed our looks to perfection. We received lots of compliments from our friends and family. To quote my mum"she's a lovely girl, she did a fantastic job!"
So the following week Manisha arrived with her bag, I was feeling extremely nervous as I was making a speech- while completing my make- up Manisha was happy to listen to me practise and even provide me with some pointers. I absolutely loved my new look for the civil and reception it was completely different to the previous week. I didn't think I could look like that-I received lots of compliments and it was all down to Manisha. She listens carefully and works her magic to create a look which suits you. Friendly, professional, amazing, passionate, helpful, calming, easy to get along with, very talented are just some of the words I would use to describe her. I know my family will be more than happy to recommend her to anybody getting married. I can't wait to book you again- we just need another family wedding now I'm so pleased my sister booked you and we can't thank you enough for making us look and feel beautiful on the wedding days. A huge thank you!!

Manisha did my sisters bridal make up absolutely beautifully so I had no hesitation in booking her for myself. Manisha takes time to understand the look that you would like and does not take a one look for all approach. Everything was perfect on the day and the make up stayed on right until the end of the night (about 3am!) which was amazing. Manisha was great on the morning of the wedding at staying calm when I was wasn't! Can't think of anyone else I'd want getting me ready for my wedding day. I'd recommend Manisha to everyone and would definitely book with her again. She is professional, punctual and a pleasure to work with :) More...

Dear Manisha
Thank you so much for my wedding make up in October 2017.
Since booking my trial with you earlier in the year all the way through to October you have been such an amazing MUA, the advice you gave and ideas we went through made my wedding experience of make up/hair really exciting!
!!
On the wedding day you made me feel so relaxed and chilled with giggles and fun. I absolutely loved my hair and make up and received so many compliments.
My mums make up and hair was flawless and she too received so many compliments!
Thank you for professionalism and making me feel amazing on my wedding day!
I will recommend you to future brides/bridesmaids/MOB etc... and I hope to keep in touch with you in the future
All the very best
Lots of love

I attended a 121 hair styling course with Manisha and it was fantastic. Manisha is very knowledgeable and patient and I was a novice going in to this course today. But Manisha helped me and put me at ease, by the end of the day I felt confident and proud of what I had achieved and created. She kept things simple in her approach and it was easy to follow her lead. She is a great teacher and I can't thank her enough for what she has taught me. I will definitely be back for more courses and 100% reccomend her. Thank you Manisha, your fantastic and a great teacher xxx More...

Went to Manisha for my bridal hair and make up after seeing the work she'd done for my sister on her wedding day a year before. Manisha created gorgeous looks for my mum, sister and myself on the wedding day. Quite nervous myself about wearing that much make up, Manisha understood I wanted a simple more natural bridal look. Completely unfazed she created a stunning red lip winged eye bridal look, and a bold eye nude lip reception look for me on the day. She made me feel a million dollars! I cannot recommend Manisha enough, she has the most wonderful personality that puts you at an instant ease - as a bride on your wedding day I'd say thats invaluable. She's fast, efficient and professional and superbly skilled at her craft. Thank you Manisha for everything xx More...

There’s something uniquely satisfying about being a makeup artist. The hours are crazy, it’s a long process of trial, experience and effort to gain recognition and yet… and yet it’s incredibly fulfilling.
Ask any bride and you’ll soon understand the importance – and the impact – professional makeup can have on their day. I am a part of making every bride feel unique, stunningly, gloriously beautiful and confident on a day they will never forget.

Since January 2018, my studio has expanded, both in services and size, and now offers an accredited training school for future artists. I personally work with every bride, but bring a team of personally picked specialists with me for larger groups and projects.

I provide the best in quality for makeup products and service – my aim is to make my clients feel most stunning, most beautiful them!! - whether they are a bride or non-bridal client.
