Tell us about your business... 
Co Artistry Tools are an innovative, vegan and cruelty free brand, offering makeup brushes and tools. Being a make-up artist myself has given me insight and knowledge into what is needed most in a make-up kit or collection. This has given me the opportunity to design something really special.  

What made you launch your new make-up brush range?
The whole range has been specially designed for multi use and to simplify the make-up application. I often found myself purchasing multiple brush sets and using only a handful of brushes from each set. Co Artistry Tools has been created in a way that each brush has more than one purpose and will perform to the highest standard, I wanted to bring a high-end range to the cruelty-free and vegan market, so I am very proud for making that happen.

What advice do you have for brides doing their own make-up with your brushes for a micro-ceremony...
With each brush set comes a detailed description of uses making the whole process simplified and stress free. We also have a tips and tricks section which will be packed with tutorials for customers to view as and when they please. 

What's the most common question clients ask you?
I am always asked if I did my own wedding make-up, to which my answer is "yes!"

What's your favourite make-up tip?
The best tip I could always give is skincare! Cleanse, tone and moisturise – every day and night. Great make-up looks even better with great skin. Also hydrate! We can all be guilty of not drinking enough water.

Something borrowed, something blue’ is out – but 1 in 4 Brits still value wedding cards

New research from Moonpig reveals the top wedding card writing confessions. A whopping 30% of Brits admit to defaulting to a safe "congratulations!" because they simply can't think of anything else to say. This is followed by recycling the same message for different couples (11%) and signing a card without knowing what your partner has written (8%). What's more, when stuck for words, one in 10 (8%) admit to turning to AI for inspiration - this rises to one in seven (14%) among 25–34-year-olds. Brits are not alone in facing this wedding card conundrum. More than half of Brits (55%) admit they have struggled with at least one aspect of wedding message writing. Nearly one in four find wedding cards (23%) or guest-book messages (24%) difficult, while one in five (20%) hit writer's block when preparing the all-important wedding speech.

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The YouGov Big Survey on Weddings

The journey that begins with "will you marry me" and ends with "I do" transforms a couple's lives in multiple ways, but it also involves a huge number of decisions, as planning a wedding is no mean feat. Every guest will have an opinion on what a wedding should be like: from what's classy and tacky, to which traditions should be followed and which can be discarded. To help prospective couples get a grip on what these potential guests hope to see in a wedding, YouGov's new Big Survey on Weddings examines all these key debates about what should and shouldn't feature on the big day, including looking at the decisions that brides and grooms would make themselves. The study is part a Big Surveys project: a series of in-depth surveys on British society. It was conducted between 7-9 August 2026, with a sample of 1,784 adults in the UK aged 18 and above.

Brits are swapping the 'big day' for the 'right day' as searches for intimate wedding venues soar

Couples are increasingly choosing quality time over large guest lists, with new search data revealing a growing demand for intimate weddings and stylish registry office ceremonies. According to Google search data analysed by Suit Direct, searches for "small intimate wedding venues near me" have increased by 86% year-on-year, while interest in "micro wedding packages" has risen 23% over the past three months, suggesting more couples are opting for meaningful celebrations that prioritise the experience over extravagance. For many, the legal ceremony is no longer just the paperwork before the "real" wedding. Instead, couples are dressing for the occasion, hiring photographers and celebrating afterwards with an intimate meal or party, proving you don't need a 200-person guest list to make the day feel special.
