About Me

With over 20 years of experience in the beauty and fashion industry, I’m Irena—a renowned bridal makeup artist and hair stylist, passionate about helping women look and feel their absolute best. From working on high-profile fashion shows, celebrity clients, influencers, commercials and editorial shoots to contributing to top UK and international magazines, my career has taken me across the globe, crafting exceptional makeup and hair looks that celebrate individuality.

A decade ago, at the encouragement of fashion editors and stylists seeking something more elevated than the traditional bridal aesthetic, I brought my expertise into the world of bridal and special event beauty. That journey led to the creation of Makeup Studio42—a bespoke beauty space in London dedicated to bridal makeup and hair services, as well as luxury makeovers for any special occasion.

My approach is simple but powerful: I don’t believe in masking features—I believe in enhancing them. I specialize in designing flawless bridal makeup and hair looks that are completely tailored to your unique features, personal style, and vision. Whether you’re preparing for your London wedding, attending a glamorous event, or treating yourself to a makeover, I offer a personalized, luxury beauty experience that ensures you feel confident, radiant, and completely yourself.

If I’m unavailable on your chosen date, one of my talented team members—trained to deliver the same high level of artistry and care—will step in to help you achieve your dream wedding day makeup and hair look.

Join me at Makeup Studio42, where your bridal beauty dreams are transformed into reality, one brushstroke at a time.
