Sharon Irving - Skincare & Make-up Expert

I attended the Mary Reid School of Beauty where I achieved a distinction. After that, I worked as a freelance makeup artist for TV and editorial shoots in Edinburgh whilst building up my book of contacts in the wedding industry.

I have closely collaborated with top make-up brands, including MAC, Bobbi Brown, and YSL. My kit is stocked with the latest and best products on the market.

My ultimate goal is to enhance your natural beauty, bringing out your best features and making your skin look flawless. My passion lies in skincare, and I stay up-to-date with the latest innovations, looks, and trends by following beauty bloggers closely.

You can find my recommended skincare products on The Made-up Team's Instagram and our new blog Madeup Recommends

Monica George - Hairdresser & HairStylist

I began my career at the award-winning salon, Charlie Miller. After that, I moved on to Paterson SA, where I was privileged to work closely with the late and great George Paterson as part of his artistic team. Later on, I moved to a leading fashion agency in Cape Town, South Africa. There, I had the opportunity to work on numerous fashion shows, editorial shoots, and TV shows such as America's Next Top Model.
