Brides on their morning

For me, makeup has always been about more than how someone looks. It’s about understanding the person sitting in my chair, recognising what makes them beautiful and knowing how to enhance it.

My journey began at 19, when I joined MAC Cosmetics at Brown Thomas on Grafton Street, Dublin. Over the following nine years, I developed my artistry through extensive training, achieving the highest level of MAC certification while working in both artistry and management roles.

Those years gave me an invaluable foundation in makeup, but more importantly, they taught me the importance of listening, understanding individual features and creating looks that feel personal to the woman wearing them.

A Passion for Bridal Beauty

Thirteen years ago, I established Michelle T Makeup, following my passion for creating beautiful, skin-focused bridal makeup.

Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of brides, each with their own style, personality and vision for their wedding day.

What I love most about bridal makeup is that no two women are the same. Some brides want soft, understated elegance, while others feel most themselves with a more polished, glamorous look.

My role is never to impose a particular style, but to understand yours and bring it to life with care, experience and attention to detail.

An Experience
Built on Trust

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to work at some of Ireland’s most beautiful wedding venues and alongside wonderful professionals within the wedding industry.

My work has received industry recognition, including winning Best Makeup Artist in the One Fab Day Wedding Awards, RSVP Magazine’s Best Wedding Makeup Artist award and being named a finalist in the WeddingsOnline Awards.

While these achievements mean a great deal to me, it’s the relationships I’ve built with my brides, the recommendations they share and the trust they place in me that I value most.
I understand how important your wedding day is, and I never take the responsibility of being part of it for granted.

A Personal Note

I want every bride who sits in my chair to feel comfortable, listened to and confident in the makeup we create together.

I bring a calm, considered approach to my work, taking care of the details so you can relax and enjoy those special moments before your wedding.

Above all, I want you to look in the mirror and see yourself – feeling beautiful, confident and ready for one of the most memorable days of your life.
