I started my career by working as a Makeup Artist in Selfridges, London for 2 years, along side my course. This gave me a vast and unbiased knowledge of many brands. My kit contains all the premium makeup brands- Armani, Charlotte Tilbury, Dior, Too Faced, MAC/NARS, Laura Mercier, YSL, Stila.

 

I have been trained at 'Basic Prosthetics' makeup for film & T.V and Airbrush Makeup.

 

I specialise in fashion, editorial and bridal makeup.  This includes body painting, airbrush makeup, temporary tattoos,  acne & scar covering for the face & body, and camouflage makeup for various skin conditions.
