My love for makeup started very young yet remained in the background. I have always loved Halloween, anticipating each year for the time when I can dress up with my friends! Meticulously practising the makeup so that it’s perfect on the day, even extending a helping hand to friends and family with achieving their character makeup. Finally when it came to looking into my future more seriously, I realised that this is something I want to pursue professionally.
I have always felt more fulfilled when being creative and since gaining the skills to actualise a concept with makeup, it has secured my need to keep creating in the future. I was previously a student at Cinema Makeup School, Los Angeles and was previously based in Los Angeles. I am now be based in South Africa, Cape Town!
