ABOUT ME

I Was the Bride — and the Makeup Artist

HELLO!

I'M ANEL MARTIN.

When I got married in March 2025, I decided that I am going to do my own Wedding Makeup. I needed it to last all day, photograph beautifully, and carry me from morning nerves to dancing the night away. And it did.

Being both the bride and the artist means I understand what this day truly means. I know the nerves, the excitement, the pressure, and the desire to feel absolutely radiant. When I work with you, I bring not just technical expertise and creativity but understanding of what the day looks like.

Let me help you feel like your most beautiful self on your wedding day — just like I did on mine.

MY BUSINESS NAME

Sjiek Makeup Name - Inspired by the word "Chic," which means elegant, graceful, and stylish in appearance. As an Afrikaans speaker who loves my native language, I decided to give it a unique twist by changing "Chic" to "Sjiek" – a classy Afrikaans version.

Why should I be your artist?

Choosing me as your makeup artist for your wedding day means you'll experience a personalized and professional touch that highlights your natural beauty while aligning with your unique style. I bring a keen eye for detail and a commitment to using high-quality products that ensure a flawless look that lasts. With my expertise and dedication, you can relax and enjoy your special day, knowing you'll look and feel absolutely stunning.
