KIND WORDS

“I cannot recommend Lilah enough! She is an incredibly talented make-up artist and made us all feel so beautiful while still looking like ourselves. She really took the time in the trial to ask questions and create the perfect look and she also provided detailed advice and suggestions for skin prep leading up to the big day. Lilah was a joy to interact with and had such a lovely and calming presence on the day. My sisters and I had a great time getting ready with her! I barely touched up my make-up all night and it still looked flawess by the end of the night. Thank you so much Lilah!!”

“Never have I looked or felt more beautiful than in the hands of Lilah Gow. Meeting Lilah for the first time during my make-up trial was like catching up with an old friend. Her warmth, candour and professionalism put me at ease, and I immediately knew I’d chosen the right artist to do magic on my wedding day. The brief was simple: I wanted to look, and feel, like my most beautiful self. No heavy-handed contouring or coverage, just enough make-up to feel glowy, confident and beautiful. Lilah, you truly are a talent and I am forever grateful to you for making me look and feel like the most beautiful bride. It was a honour to be in your chair and I can’t wait to experience your magic again soon“

“To say my standards are high when it comes to makeup is probably an understatement. I’m a bridal hairstylist myself and have worked with a lot of amazing makeup artists throughout my career. When it came time for my own wedding, there’s no one I would have rather have by my side making me look amazing than Lilah. Not only is her work stunning, but she has a crazy ability to make people feel great about themselves, which is a rare skill. As a client you’ll see her go the extra mile for you on your wedding day – whether it’s drying flower stems or helping to cover your head with a pillow case while you slip a dress over it – but it’s the little things you don’t see that make her a truly amazing artist. Lilah is contagiously joyful, professional, super organised, consistently produces beautiful work, never skimps on makeup hygiene, has a great attention to detail Thanks for sharing your super makeup powers with me Lilah, I loved having you there on my big day! “

“Oh. My. God. Where do I even start…! Perhaps with the lady herself. I cannot thank Lilah enough for all that she did for myself, my bridesmaids and my mum last Saturday at our wedding. Her Ora is exactly what you want from a vendor on your wedding day. Calm, organised, reliable and good chat. We had THE BEST time getting ready with Lilah. As a person, there are no faults. And then there was the make-up… I met Lilah earlier in the year for a trial and I knew instantly I was in good hands. My brief, ‘natural. I want to look like me’. The day of my wedding I could not have felt more natural and like me. My bridesmaids the same. We were feeling our best and looking our best! And then there was my mum. More mature skin. My mum looked BEAUTIFUL. Lilah, I am so thankful to have crossed paths. I will be referring you to all my friends when their partners drop the knee. You have a gift XX“

“I cannot praise Lilah Gow Makeup Artistry enough!
Lilah is an expert. She will create make up that reflects your unique personality, face shape and skin type – she is dedicated to making you feel (and look) amazing! She worked alongside me, a nervous bride, through the trial and on the day.
Lilah’s home studio (and mobile studio set up) are very professional and extremely well appointed. On the day, Lilah was the one keeping me present and calm, reminding me to breathe and to enjoy the wonderful morning – being in her glam chair is like being in your own little zen bubble”

ANNEKE

“I can confidently say that Lilah is one of the BEST makeup artists you will ever find, and I can’t recommend her enough. My wedding makeup was incredible – I don’t think I’ve ever felt more beautiful. My bridesmaids were so happy too, they both have sensitive skin which was not a problem at all for Lilah. Lilah is a true artist – so professional, she really listens and cares, and her number one priority is to make you feel like the very best version of yourself. I loved the little touch up bag she gave me for later on, but honestly, the makeup was so good I did not even need it. Which was pretty amazing considering how much I cried on the day! Lilah also makes you feel so comfortable and she just felt like another friend helping me get ready. You’re amazing Lilah, don’t ever forget it.“

“Lilah was unbelievable! So professional and approachable, and totally took the time to understand what I wanted from her services. She is extremely talented and well trained, super professional and very easy to communicate with. She has an excellent energy about her and it was a pleasure to have her around in the morning of the wedding. She went above and beyond for myself and my bridal party and I really couldn’t recommend her highly enough! THANK YOU LILAH!”

GINA

I had the privilege of having Lilah do mine and my bridesmaids makeup for my recent wedding and she was fantastic!! In the lead up to the day, Lilah’s professionalism ensured that i always felt calm. She was so responsive to emails and i always knew she had everything under control. But it was on the day that Lilah really shone. It was like having a fourth bridesmaid there with me. She kept everything so calm and relaxe and made sure that we were all on time. The makeup she did was so beautiful! She listened to us all and captured exactly what we wanted and i know everyone felt there most loveliest self because of Lilah’s amazing work. Lilah, i cannot thank you enough!“

HANNAH

“Lilah was an absolute dream on my wedding day. She took her time with each girl and ensured everyone was 100% happy with their results – which, of course, we were beyond happy! She has a knack for beautiful natural makeup that looks amazing in person and in photos. I loved the way I looked but importantly, I *felt* incredible. My face didn’t feel cakey, it felt effortless. Couldn’t recommend Lilah enough”

DARLA

“I found Lilah on easyweddings after many suggestions. I was immediately drawn to her style over Instagram, her brides, bridesmaids and mothers seemed like they were naturally emphasized, but what I could never have thought about having never been involved in a wedding before was her absolutely stunning personality. My trial displayed her professionalism and hygiene but most importantly I felt an instant connection and warmth with her. She took notices of the casual clothes I was wearing and gleaned insights to my personality from our conversation which fed into our session. She was ready at 6am and with us, until 2, running ahead of schedule, adjusting and flexible, myself and my bridesmaids, mother and mother in law to be all remarked that they felt like Lilah was a close friend getting ready together. She hyped us up, she calmed us down, she set the tone for the whole day”

ADEN

“Lilah was amazing! I chose her off a series of recommendations and now it’s my turn to sing her praises. She is highly professional and works to understand you and your skin before you even land in her chair. I am very fair skinned and was really worried about having foundation that was too dark (which happened in a trial with a different MUA) but she listened to my concerns and matched and blended everything beautifully. I had number changes left, right and centre with border closures and opens and Lilah was fantastically flexible. I opted to have the premium touch up bag and the detail and products in it were beautiful. Everything she does is well thought out and done with love. I can’t wait to have another event and use Lilah again.”

ALANA

“Lilah is incredible! My make up trial was so much fun and she made sure I loved everything. If I wasn’t sure about something she changed it for me without hesitation. She tested all different products on me and checked in to see how they were holding up through out the day. She gave me skin tips to ensure my skin looked great on my wedding day and I follows them to a T and my face has never looked better. On the day of my wedding Lilah smashed it! The girls looked amazing and my make up was incredible! She knows how to accentuate everyone’s best features without overdoing the make up. Everything she did was perfect. My girls looked stunning! Flawless. Lilah came prepared with everything possible she could think off, she even packed an emergency kit (huge bag!) of everything possible that someone might need on the day and boy did that come in handy!! Lilah is so talented, so funny, kind and truely cares about her clients. She made sure I looked truely perfect on the day. She looked after me all day, and even made sure I took deep breaths when she could see me stressing and reminded me to smile. Canberra is truely lucky to have such a talented make up artist. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting their make up done! You won’t be disappointed..“

Wedding make up artist Lilah Gow Wedding Makeup Canberra

“I cannot thank Lilah enough for being a part of my wedding day. Lilah’s professionalism and technique are unparalleled. My makeup was absolutely stunning – elegant and glamorous and I also felt like myself. Lilah surprised the whole family by managing to get my mum (who hasn’t worn anything but lipstick in years) excited about having her make-up done. Lilah gave her a really natural look, which she loved. Lilah was a joyous and relaxing presence on the day and made us all feel at ease. She went above and beyond for me, helping me with the finishing touches to my dress, shoes etc as I was heading out the door. The day wouldn’t have been the same without her.”

HEATHER

“Lilah is an absolute gem! She is organised, thorough, easy going, and a very comforting presence on such a big day! I don’t often wear a lot of make up so Lilah took great care in talking me through the steps, listening to what I wanted and providing me with options to ensure I felt comfortable, confident and like myself. Lilah is not only a great makeup artist, but also a savvy businesswoman. With clear and timely communications leading up to the wedding, she made planning a breeze. I was so pleased to have Lilah as part of my wedding day and I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”

JESSICA

“Lilah is a consummate professional and I would not hesitate to recommend her to any bride! From my initial inquiries regarding availability, completion of a questionnaire to determine what services would be required, quote provided and booking made, I felt in completely safe hands. Lilah genuinely wanted me to look the absolute best version of myself on the day and delivered an individual look profile at my trial. I was blown away by her personal studio and specialised set up on the day. Needless to say, Lilah had the tools, products and skill to make me look and feel a million dollars. More than a make up artist; a confidant and friend when you are vulnerable on your big day! I may have been worrying about a million other things, but my makeup wasn’t one of them. Dead set legend.”
