Mirna Conway and Makeup By Mirna

Mirna Conway is a makeup artist working from Stevenage in Hertfordshire, with a focus on luxury bridal beauty. Her aim for every bride is an elegant, polished finish that still looks and feels like her.

Each look is tailored to the bride's complexion, facial features, personality and lifestyle. The process is built around a 90-minute trial, usually held at Mirna's home studio where her full range of products and colours is to hand, and ideally booked three to six months before the wedding.

“Be the most elegant bride who looks a million dollars but still feels like herself.”

Mirna Conway, Founder and Luxury Bridal Makeup Artist

Away from weddings, Mirna's commercial work includes London Fashion Week, advertising campaigns for Deloitte, work for the bridalwear brand Ronald Joyce and the designer Veni Infantino, and Miss UK.

She also offers Makeup Therapy, a confidence-building service shaped by her own experience as a refugee from Croatia and by her studies in psychology. It is intended for women rebuilding their sense of self after a significant change in life.

Mirna covers Hertfordshire, London and surrounding areas including St Albans, Hitchin, Hertford, Welwyn Garden City, Harpenden, Harlow, Luton and Cambridge, and is available for destination weddings worldwide.

Review

Words cannot express my fantastic experience with Mirna. From the moment I contacted her, through to her finishing my flawless makeup, she conducted herself professionally.
She has a passion and contagious enthusiasm for makeup artistry, and she made my face look youthful and fresh with a subtle glow. She accentuated my features without making me look overdone.
I had so many compliments and the makeup lasted all day without any need for retouching.
It’s been a pleasure working with such a creative, and talented person. She listened to my needs and delivered a seamless application. In addition, she shared a wealth of hints and tips. I learnt so much from her in a short space of time.
I looked so elegant and chic. What a transformation. I highly recommend her services. I cannot wait to use her again for future events.
Thank you Mirna for working your magic on me!

Mirna did my wedding makeup and it looked stunning. She was such a professional and so easy to work with. I have asked her to do my makeup on several other occasions and it was perfect. Highly recommend Mirna to everybody.
