Anita is a complete professional and made myself and my bridal party look glamorous on the day. I don't usually wear that much makeup (and had recently gone on a course of strong medication for acne in the build up to the wedding), but she really managed to make me look like the best version of myself on the day. She also did my mother and my mother in law's makeup on the day - my own mum doesn't wear makeup at all, but she made sure she was at complete ease and looked fabulous after it! Would definitely recommend :)

I cannot recommend Anita enough, she is truly amazing. Apart from the fact she is such a gorgeous person, she is the best at what she does! I had complete trust in Anita, all I said was that I wanted quite natural makeup and let Anita do the rest. I was so happy with the results of my makeup and my bridesmaids and Mum, everyone looked beautiful.
Anita is so professional and accommodating and such a pleasure to work with and a real calming presence on the morning of your wedding!

Wedding make-up is so important to the confidence of the bride and my daughter couldn't have been happier with the look Anita achieved for her and her bridesmaids on the day. Anita also did my 'mother-of-the-bride' make-up and I was equally delighted. Anita's patience & professionalism ensured that we all had a look we were entirely happy with, and which lasted without touch-ups into the small hours. Each of us were treated individually, our likes and dislikes catered for until we all looked like better, more polished, versions of ourselves. Anita was a pleasure to deal, a gentle calming influence during the wedding mayhem and a gifted make-up artist.

As a make up artist myself finding someone that I could put my trust in to do my make up for the most important day of my life was a daunting task. I first met Anita for my trial over a year ago in her gorgeous salon. She made me feel that I could really put my trust in her. I went for a contemporary look as I wanted it to look strong without being over done. I felt Anita got everything I wanted from my make up. Thank you so much Anita ????

Anita was great at my trial and also on the actual wedding day putting me totally at ease. She worked with me to decide what look I wanted and my make up lasted well into the night and looked fab. I would have no hesitation in recommending her to any bride :)

Anita was amazing. I cannot say enough about her and I could not recommend the Powder Room enough. I went the non-traditional route with my make up on my wedding day and I absolutely loved it. Anita went above and beyond and I could not thank her enough for making my day even more special. My Mam and Bridesmaids looked gorgeous and they complemented how flawless the makeup stayed all day. I will definitely be a regular visitor to the powder room!

Anita was an absolute dream on the morning of my wedding. The house was full of activity and buzzing. Anita kept me calm and relaxed and was so professional. All our makeup was stunning and so many people commented on it. I danced all night and I still looked as perfect at 2am as I had that morning. I cannot reccomend her highly enough.

Anita and her girls did an absolutely amazing job. We took part in the show don't tell the bride so Anita had no opportunity to do a test run on myself or my bridesmaids. She had very little notice. We only met on the morning of my wedding and she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She did an amazing job of myself and my bridal party I couldn't have asked for anymore. I trusted her opinion on what to go for on the day as I didn't have to he opportunity for a test run and but she did an amazing job. Would highly recommend her to anyone. I will definitely be coming back to the powder room.

The powder room make up studio(Anita) did my make up for my wedding this August. She provided an excellent service, came out to the our home and myself and my 4 sisters had our make up done. It was amazing. We all had different make up preferences and Anita was able to facilitate all of us. She was superb.I honestly didn't touch up the make up for the rest of the day/night. She had great ideas and was very easy to work with it and very accommodating. Many girls asked us on the day/days after about our make up artist as they were so impressed. Anita is friendly and good value for money.

I had my make up done in the powder room for a family wedding. The salon is beautiful and I was completely relaxed. They took the time to talk to me and incorporated the little aspects of the make up ideas I had. They were professional and all times and my make up was flawless. To say I was delighted was an understatement. I would recommend them to any bride! I didn't have to touch my make up all day and I had it done at half nine in the morning! You couldn't have better for your special day.

I had the pleasure of having Anita do the make up for my wedding in Dungarvan last May. She made the morning so much fun and so relaxed! I went for 2 trials to Anita coming up to the wedding where we tested out different eye make up etc and Anita wrote it all down in her book! She was so good for advice and unbelievably organised on the day of the wedding.
After I got engaged I searched high and low for a make up artist in co Waterford but none matched up to Anita. I had got my make up done by Anita on numerous occasions and I knew how fantastic she is at her job! When I asked her if she would travel to Dungarvan she was more than willing and I was relaxed and at ease about my make up from the day I booked her. One of my bridesmaids is getting married this June and she was so impressed with Anita's make up skills that she has also booked her for her wedding.
Thank you so much Anita

Anita from The Powder Room did my make up for my whole bridal party on my wedding day and I couldn't be happier with my choice. Every thing from the great advise she gave on my make up trail, to the flexibility of her calling to the house on the morning of the wedding. She is very talented and can create a look to suit everyone, everyone from my mother to my bridesmaids looked amazing, I got so many compliments on the day and have recommended the powder room to all my friends

I had the pleasure of having Anita do my bridal make up in April of this year aswell as my three bridesmaids! This girl is amazing at her job and i have to say i was totally transformed. My make up was flawless and lasted all day and night. I got so many compliments about my eye make up in particular - Anita really pays attention to detail. She really listened to what i wanted and both myself and my bridesmaids looked beautiful on the day - even if i do say so myself. She is a lovely friendly girl and a complete professional. I highly recommend Anita- one of , if not the best decision I made in the whole wedding planning process.

Last New Year's Eve, I had the pleasure of having Anita Conroy do my make up for my wedding day. I was absolutely thrilled with the finished look and was so lucky that she agreed to travel all the way to Kerry to do it for me! The make up was just fabulous, and photographed so beautifully in all the pictures! It was flawless and lasted until the very early hours next morning! Didn't even budge, and there was a lot of partying done that night!!!
I can't recommend The Powder Room enough for your wedding day, Anita is a true professional and an extremely talented make up artist ! She uses the finest of make up products including Charlotte Tilbury and Mac which I adore! Thank you for all your hard work on my wedding day, you created such a relaxed atmosphere that morning and kept us all at ease!
Wishing the Powder Room the very best for the future!

When I knew id be planning a wedding makeup was the first thing I booked. I knew I wanted Anita and so was lucky she was available. She listened to what I wanted and also pointed me in the right direction too. I loved my makeup and I lasted all day. I was so pleased. She uses quality products and is very reasonable. The bridal party were equally happy. They loved their makeup and looked amazing. My mother was sick on the day and she says herself, nobody could have done what Anita did with her makeup. Overall she's fantastic and cannot recommend her highly enough.

We got the make up for my sisters wedding done by The Powder Room and were delighted with how the pictures turned out.
Many comments were made on how natural we looked which is so important that you dont look 'made up' - i would highly recommend The Powder Room to anyone on their big day.
Arriving on time and making us all feel at ease too which was fantastic.
Was extremely accommodating too to my elder aunt who arrived unannounced for her make up to be done.. Anitas no problem attitude was exceptional x

Anita was recommended to me by a friend to be my bridal party makeup artist. She was fantastic on the day..so professional in the comfort of our own house!! So much thought into tones and skin types while at the same time taking what each individual wanted into consideration. It's not until you look back at your photos will you really appreciate an excellent job and the mircles she can do!! Thanks Anita

I cannot recommend Anita and her team at The Powder Room highly enough!!! I'm very particular when it comes to my makeup, so when it came to my wedding last August, Anita was my first choice!!! Having gone to Anita (for makeup appointments) for various special occasions over the past few years, I was very confident that she would be able to ensure absolute perfection when it came to the Big Day itself!! I was blown away with the end result, and lots of my friends booked Anita for their weddings having seen how well she looked after us all!!

I got married in June 2014 and Anita done my makeup. It was the one thing coming up to the wedding that I didn't have to think twice about. I have been to Anita on plenty of other occasions for other events and have always been very pleased with a number of different makeup looks. I was very confident that Anita would do exactly as I wanted. My makeup was flawless and lasted all day and so natural looking. It was a shame to take it off. I could not recommend her enough, she has a very good listening ear and great at making suggestions.

Anita did my make up for my special day. From the very first time l contacted her she was so professional and it is very clear she loves her job because she is such a perfectionist and always doing courses to keep updated. At the trial she spent ages with me deciding each product and giving me advice. She gave me the exact look l wanted. On my wedding day she took her time with all the party and checked us in every light. She waited til l had my veil on and did one last check before l headed off. She made the day very relaxing and l couldn't recommend her more.
I get her for special nights out or weddings and she's always eager to achieve the look you have in mind. She uses all the great brands not just 1 generic so she has products to suit every skin type. She's fab!!!
