FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to get to know my clients' likes/dislikes in makeup style, career path, overall comfort level and knowledge of makeup. Once I've finished the application I ask my client if there is anything they would like to change or do differently so that they are completely satisfied. Often I ask via email for a picture of themselves in makeup and also examples of what they would like to achieve in their makeup look.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a background in art and sculpture, fashion design and have studied HD makeup application, airbrush makeup application, special effects and injury simulation. I keep up to date with new products and new techniques and attend demos and workshops in New York.
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I've always played with makeup since I was 14 living in Europe; I began a career in makeup in 1993 working as a manager at the first Prescriptive's counter in Tyson's Corner.
