makeup services

As a professional Artist, my portfolio is diverse and I work across multiple verticals such as: advertising, editorial, weddings, or red carpet events.

“From the clean looks of advertising, to the high energy of commercial work, to the perfect bridal glow, or a stunning beauty campaign, I dedicate myself fully to ensuring each client feels their absolute best.”

As immuno-compromised person, I like to request at home (Covid test) 24-48hrs before working together, ideally.

Since makeup is such a personal experience, let’s have a quick call “to get to know each other and build trust before beginning.”
