"Bella was booked at short notice for BBC Question Time and had to deal with 6 rather than our usual 5 panellists.  She fulfilled all our requirements and worked quickly and efficiently at our outside broadcast location.  We would happily book her again." (Karen Davies, Production Manager, BBC Question Time, Mentorn Oxford)


“I have worked on over fifty five films and met a lot of makeup artistes in that time. Bella’s work is exceptional. She aged me up to over sixty years old and did it in such a subtle way, that I was so impressed I left the makeup on when I went home to show my daughter. I stopped off on the way to get some fuel, and no one at the garage batted an eyelid, that’s how convincing it was.

Bella’s work ethics and warm approach to the actors just goes to extenuate her extremely professional persona. She made me feel very comfortable and relaxed and was very amiable the whole time.

She is a pleasure to be around, and asset to any film set. I would certainly welcome working with her again and recommend to any Director or Film Producer I know”. (George McCluskey, Actor, 2009)


“Bella did a fantastic working on our artist Mohiki and was thoroughly professional from beginning to end. Every person who looks at her artwork says how beautiful she looks and Bella had a large part in capturing that look”. (Richard Colman, BigLife Management, 2009)


"Bella has been great to work with here at Biglife. Her eye to detail and professionalism makes her someone we enjoy to work with” (Gideon Mountford, BigLife Management, 2009)


“Bella is currently working on my film 'HELPLESS' and her professionalism and skills in the art of make up are without doubt of a superior quality. I watched a twenty year old woman age to sixty before my eyes thanks to Bella's artistry. A valuable and very good natured member of the team”. (Jared Morgan, Executive Producer, Tudor Productions, “Helpless”, 2009)


"Not only is Bella's make-up great...she has a wicked sense of humor which instantly puts you at ease and relaxes you as she works away. It's extremely hard to keep a straight face when she gets going!!" (Kingsley Pilgrim, Actor, 2009)


“I’m working with Bella at the moment on a feature film called Helpless, she is a breath of fresh air, it’s not only important to have a professional artist working on your film but also someone who is great to work with, and Bella has both these qualities. I would recommend Bella Freckles to everyone.” (Craig T. James, Director, Tudor Productions, “Hopelessly Helpless”, 2009)


“Bella worked with us on our last film and not only was she a delight to work with she immediately became one of the crew and understood exactly what it was we were looking for. Having never met me before and joining a close tight knit crew who had worked together on many projects before as well as joining us part way through production, she had no problem at all fitting in. I only spoke to her once on the day she arrived about what it was we were looking for and she just got on with it and did a marvelous job. The down side of shooting in HD is that make up can be an issue, but Bella was aware of this and looking at the rushes everything looked great!” (Duncan Roe, Director, Irreplaceable Productions, “Jumping off bridges”, 2009

Bella has a great talent in enhancing natural beauty with make up that is barely there and yet works wonders! She is also easy to get pm with and a real pleasure to work with. (Pati Yang, Fllykklr, Music Artist)
