Briar McKenzie Makeup Artistry

I’m a specialised bridal makeup artist, professionally trained in London in 2016. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of building a beautiful and loyal clientele. My signature style is all about enhancing your natural beauty—bringing your best features to life with a chic, effortless touch, while staying rooted in timeless techniques.

I take pride in perfecting every look to suit each individual, ensuring you feel confident and radiant. My approach is calm and considered; I prioritise creating a relaxed, unrushed atmosphere where a genuine connection can flourish.
I'm a country girl at heart, with a studio tucked away in the beautiful rural Manawatu. While I love the quiet charm of my surroundings, I regularly travel across the Lower North Island to work with my wonderful clients. With a passion for travel, I especially adore destination weddings and am more than happy to journey nationwide—and beyond—for your special day.
I offer in-depth bridal trials where we can get to know each other, talk through your vision, and create a stunning, personalised look that you'll feel confident and beautiful in.
I would love to chat with you today!
