Award-Winning & Cruelty-Free Make Up Artist
Hey! I'm Sali Jones, aka Ms Moo Make Up. I'm a multi award-winning cruelty-free freelance professional make-up artist with over 14 years of experience and 400+ weddings. I'm based in Nottingham, but I'm happy to travel across the UK to wherever you need me, though the majority of my work is based in Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire.
Here you will find information about how to book me for your wedding make-up, a one-to-one makeup lesson or a special occasion makeover. You'll see all the fashion and editorial photoshoots I've been involved with, some behind-the-scenes photos and updates on my blog. Whatever your makeup needs, I can help.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Wedding Make Up Interview with: Amy
Amy and Jakob married in October 2023 in the chapel at Royal Holloway, University of London. Their reception was at the De Vere Beaumont Estate in Windsor, and as well as having me on makeup she had the lovely Sarah from Pin Up Curl for her hair!
We got engaged on 15th July 2022 and married on 28th October 2022! I planned for about 14 months (although really I had been planning it for about 2 decades...)
I first found our photographer, the amazing Gabrielle McMillan Photography, before we even got engaged! She was one of the first suppliers we booked, along with our ceremony venue - the beautiful Victorian chapel at Royal Holloway, University of London. You have to be alumni to get married there, but it's so beautiful I'd suggest picking your uni choices based on it...
I had already met you through the wonderful Tigz Rice!!!
I considered doing my own makeup briefly, which would have been a disaster. I'm not entirely sure what I was thinking! I booked you as I already knew from meeting you before and from following you on Instagram that you were someone who would not stress me out on the morning of the wedding! I also love your makeup style and I like that your website is colourful!!! So many bridal makeup websites are soulless!!!
It was great and really fun! Finding the perfect makeup look seemed super easy!
Definitely not!
Don't feel pressure to follow the bridal trends - do what you want to do!
Sali is a wonderful person to have around on the morning of your wedding. She is easy to get along with and is great to have a laugh with. She is also a calming presence when the panic sets in! She goes beyond doing makeup and also acts as a therapist, and a shoe doer-upper!
I also had a makeup lesson with Sali this weekend, which was so informative. I've learnt a lot and can't wait to try out my new skills."
