About me

Hello and thank you for visiting! I am Victoria Buckley and I am a professional freelance makeup artist based in East Lothian, near Edinburgh, Scotland.

I create polished, camera-ready looks across fashion, bridal, editorial, celebrity, and private events, working confidently with both women and men.

Clients value my professionalism, excellent communication and the calm, reassuring presence I bring to every booking. With a discreet and professional approach, I am trusted by clients who value privacy, including those in the public eye.

I specialise in radiant, skin-focused makeup and have a particular love for clean, ‘no-makeup’ makeup looks and romantic bridal makeup. Whether I am perfecting skin for a close-up beauty shot or creating a defined style with colour and impact for runway or film, I work closely with each team to bring the creative vision to life.

When I am not working with my beautiful clients, you will find me in the gym, out for a long walk by the beach or snuggled up to my cats. I love good food, red wine, a couple of cheeky cocktails and getting lost in a gripping thriller! 

Living in Scotland means less sunny days than I would like, so I am always looking for my next opportunity to travel with work.
