Lizzie Griffiths - Hair & Make-up

General information

I have had a passion for Hair & Make-up since I was very young, I would spend hours looking through magazines copying make-up and hair looks. While I was completing my CIDESCO Diploma in Beauty Therapy in 2004 I worked for MAC Cosmetics and working for them confirmed for me that a Make-up Artist was the perfect career for me!

In 2005 I trained in Fashion / Editorial Hair and Make-up at the School of Make-up in Manchester.

Since then I have had the pleasure of doing numerous Weddings. It is so rewarding to know that you have help to make a bride’s day so special. I cover Cheshire, Manchester, Liverpool, Shropshire, Staffordshire and North Wales. People are always amazed by all the products and brands I have in my kit, which include Laura Mercier, MAC, Nars, Shu Uemura, Illamasqua, Chantecaille and By Terry.

As well as weddings I also regularly work with MPA (Master Photographers Association) & Yervant 2010 Award Winners Ashford Daly Photography. My work has been featured in Cosmopolitan Bride, Live Cheshire Magazine and Pure Weddings Magazine.

I also work part time as an in store Make-up Artist for Space NK. This keeps me up to date with all the latest products and trends from top Make-up, Skincare and Hair brands.
