Description
As a qualified makeup artist with a Level 3 diploma in Fashion, Theatre, Media Makeup and Hair, I bring a versatile skill set and a deep understanding of makeup for different mediums. My training has equipped me with strong technical skills in beauty makeup, character creation, period styling and basic special effects, as well as hairstyling techniques such as setting, braiding, heat styling and up-dos. I'm confident working across a range of skin tones, hair types and face shapes, ensuring inclusive and appropriate looks for every client or performer. I take pride in my eye for detail, colour matching, and symmetry. I consistently aim to create high quality, camera-ready results under time pressure.
Beyond application skills, I'm also highly organised, professional, and adaptable on set. I understand the importance of continuity in TV and film, working quickly without compromising the design or schedule. I thrive in collaborative environments, whether supporting a lead artist or managing tasks independently. I maintain a clean, sanitary kit and follow all hygiene protocols to ensure safety and professionalism. My strong communication skills allow me to put clients and performers at ease, take direction well, and contribute positively to the team dynamic. I'm passionate about ongoing learning and always stay updated with current trends, products and industry techniques. Overall I am a creative, reliable, and enthusiastic artist who brings both skill and passion to every project.
Special Interests
I have a strong passion for character and SFX makeup, particularly in how it transforms actors and supports storytelling in film, television, and theatre. I'm fascinated by the creative and technical process behind designing realistic wounds, ageing, and fantasy characters, and I enjoy developing these skills further. I also have a deep interest in period makeup and hairstyling, and I take pride in researching and recreating authentic historical looks for screen or stage. As someone who understands the demands of high-definition filming, I'm dedicated to achieving camera-ready results that hold up under studio lighting and closeup shots. Alongside this, I'm inspired by fashion and editorial work, where I can explore bold, creative looks and collaborate with photographers and stylists. I'm also passionate about inclusive beauty and committed to working confidently with a wide range of skin tones, hair textures, and facial features, ensuring that every client or performer feels seen, represented, and respected.
