My Care & Creativity

My experience has made me passionate about makeup as well as the expression of the creative self through art and painting. Through years of painting I have become comfortable and confident in understanding use of colour and shading. This in turn has enhanced the way that I think about different complexions and how I choose the best colour to match different skin tones. This has helped me in practicing semi-Permanent Makeup too and help my clients chose the correct shades for heir brows and their lips.

I care about people: I want to assist with enhancing their beauty and boosting their confidence through the art of makeup & semi-permanent makeup. I grew up as a young carer and I worked in Children Disability Social Care for about 10 years before becoming a Makeup Artist. I absolutely loved my job and the families I worked with, however it became more apparent to me that a big part of my personality and life was missing. Colour and creativity as well as not being to see my daughter much who was only 1 year old then. When I left Social Care it really was a no-brainer that I should pursue a carer in beauty. It was the most perfect thing for me, I was that person who was always getting everyone ready for a wedding or on a night out, I was the one who did everyone’s makeup and hair. The day that I took my first course, I remember thinking and feeling like a little girl nearly reaching her dream… I was determined and positive, my creativity waiting to shine through me but most importantly I was over-joyed knowing I will be doing a job which I love, meet new people and be a part of their new adventure.

My Kit

I don’t know about you but when it comes to using beauty products, I can be a little fussy/careful. I have done hours of researching, popping in and out of makeup shops and trying products after products to ensure the products I chose for my kit deliver the best result for my clients. Recently and after completing a Holistic Facial course, I became fascinated by natural and organic products as well as cruelty-free and vegan brands. In May 2021 I made the decision to become a completely cruelty-free makeup artist. This has meant more research and building my kit again, however I am very happy with my decision and am glad to play a small part in saving animals and our planet from harm.

Just a few of the brands I use in case you are interested to know: RCMA, Charlotte Tilbury, Cinema Secret, Sigma, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Jouer, etc.
