Hi Mequa, I would like to thank you soooo very much for making me look so beautiful for my Daughters wedding. The best makup I have ever had! Will be telling everyone to get you for their makup. You were so lovely too. Made everyone feel so relaxed and comfortable. Have had makup done before by others but you are a true artist. Never thought I could look so amazing and it lasted all day and night. Just love how you did my eyes. Thank you X

I went and got a spray tan by Mequa and could not be happier. The tan turned out very well. She made sure it was even. She was very accommodating and made the experience very comfortable. All for a great price too! It's honestly such a confidence booster and would highly recommend.

I've worked with Mequa on a photo shoot where she has applied makeup for one of my clients. She is friendly, professional, super talented & treated my client really well. She listened to the vision I had for the photos & did the makeup perfectly! Definitely looking forward to working with her again. She's the best! Definitely recommend her for any of your makeup needs. Kind regards,

I have been using Mequa's Artistry for approximately 6 months. I have been receiving makeup and hair tutorials, and have thoroughly enjoyed every appointment. She is an extremely relaxed person, and I have felt very comfortable having appointments with her. She explains everything fully, and is happy to repeat something, or explain it fully if you need more information. For me, the experience was more like having a 'big sister' teach me about makeup application and helped me gain confidence with what I was doing. From the very first appointment, she has been nothing but professional, yet really
