Midlands Enterprise Award Winner – Most Inclusive Artist 2025
Sensual Passions, led by founder and lead artist Sonia (she/her), is a proudly inclusive brand based in Rugby, UK. Recognised for bold creativity and transformative styling, Sonia was honoured with the Midlands Enterprise Award for Most Inclusive Artist 2025, celebrating her commitment to individuality through hair and makeup.
Her work has been featured in various magazines, bridal platforms, and photography websites, showcasing a versatile portfolio that ranges from high impact editorial looks to minimalist elegance. She is fully insured, professionally qualified, and continues to train in the latest hair and makeup trends and techniques.
Sonia has always had a desire to be different and stand out from the crowd, a spirit that shines through in her work. Whether clients want something creative or minimal, she adapts her artistry to reflect their unique vision. She especially loves creating and transforming alter egos, and finds deep fulfilment in the emotional reactions clients have when they first see themselves in the mirror moments of excitement, wonder, and joy that affirm her passion for the craft.
One of the most rewarding aspects of her work is supporting brides who seek alternative makeup styles that they may struggle to create themselves.
Sonia believes that no one should feel pressured to blend in or conform. As she often says, “Why should you blend in and be the same as everyone else?”

At Sensual Passions we never shy away from an unusual or different, shall we say, project.
We did the hair and makeup for our gorgeous regular @misscherrychampagne who is promoting her new Bingo service.
Cherry 🍒 wanted bright and vivid colours to match her balls- steadddyyy! So we obliged and created a stunning makeup fit for a bingo queen. Total amaze balls.

Meet Harriet 💕
Harriet, also known as Harry, is a crossdresser with a loving wife named Anna. Together, they`ve created @crossdresseduk UK - a safe space for guidance, resources, and support for those navigating their journey.
I have been so lucky to meet them and couldn’t wait to give Harry the Sensual Passions experience! Harriet went for the Feminine makeover and they absolutely looked gorgeous once the transformation was completed.
Stay tuned for some more news with Crossdressed UK.
