Testimonials

My happy customers are my best thing about my business, here is what some of them have to say about me…..

Wow! Abbie Gardiner is the most amazing feelance makeup artist ive ever used. Almost magical was the transformation she took me through. Ive experienced many makeup artists in my line of work, though none as skilled as Abbie. She was professional and personable and instantly I trusted her approach. She combined the perfect mix of professional expertise and exactly what I wanted. Abbie was really good at listening to my absolute do’s and donts and made me feel comfortable. I can understand why Lorde chose Abbie to create her look in Royals music video, and why Abbie is off to Barcelona next month to represent NZ in Wella Trend vision. She is Amazing xxxx

Love love love Abbie and her talent is amazing. She is my number one makeup artist so any opportunity I get to steal her to do my makeup for shoots, shows etc I grab it! She has this remarkable way of working with my dark skin tone. Skin on fleek after Abbie works her magic.
