Gabrielle Houghton Makeup

Where to begin! Gabby was incredible from beginning to end and I was incredibly lucky to have secured her services for my wedding day!Gabby had excellent communication from the get go and went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly for my big day, from the make-up trial, the wedding preparation and of course the big day! She travelled all the way from Hamilton to Kumeu (min 2hr drive!) and we had so many obstacles thrown at us with the weather and timing changes and she adapted to make sure I never had to worry about a thing.Thank you so much for everything Gabby, there aren’t enough stars on here to reflect your work! You made my bridal make-up dreams a reality! ♥️

Gabby did our wedding day makeup. 7 girls, all with different skintones and textures. She aced every single one! She is just amazing.

I couldn't speak more highly of Gabrielle! She did an absolutely incredible job on my makeup and that of my four bridesmaids and we couldn't have been happier.Similar to the previous review, I reached out to Gabby after having a very disappointing bridal trial with another makeup artist. From the get-go she was incredibly professional, friendly and patient.I was unable to return to Auckland for another trial before the wedding, so communicated with Gabby via Zoom and email in the lead-up. She really took the time to understand what I wanted and put me at ease. She was also happy to take on feedback on the day and make small tweaks until we were all totally satisfied.She has a quiet, calming energy and was an absolute pleasure to have as part of the day.

Gabby is an absolute professional, she is so knowledgeable and talented. She’s done my makeup for a couple of events and both times not only did I get a lot of compliments, but I felt so confident in myself!We also did a Group makeup lesson with some friends and she was so patient and made everything so easy and simple to understand.Thanks so much Gabby, highly recommended!

Gabrielle is INCREDIABLE - hands done the best of the best. She did my bridal makeup + my bridal party and we all looked flawless. Gabrielle isn't just an amazing makeup artist she's one of the kindest people you'll ever meet too. Thank you for making me feel so confident and beautiful on my wedding day xx.

I have used Gabrielle several times over the past 5/6 years. Her professionalism is second to none, I would go as far as to say she is the best makeup artist New Zealand has. She is constantly upskilling herself so that her skills and service are top tier. I used Gabrielle for my wedding as well as many other events and I have always loved my makeup. Gabrielle has a very calming energy and she is not intimidating at all and that's why I would have no qualms about recommending her to anyone.

I was lucky enough to have Gabby for my wedding day, from first communication to the day of and everything in between Gabby made me feel so beautiful. Nothing was ever a problem, I had SO many compliments about my and the bridesmaids make up. Absolutely outstanding

Really enjoyed my Artist to Artist lesson with Gabby. She is so knowledgeable and inspiring. Just the refresh I needed. Highly recommend to artists, regardless of experience.

Gabby did my wedding makeup and my beautiful friends. It was beyond amazing! I had no idea of the look I was after, but she absolutely nailed it. Everyone was so happy with their own makeup. Gabby is not only amazing at her job, but she is so lovely and kind which makes it even better!
