MAKEUP ARTIST OF THE WEEK 2/16/16


FEMALE MODEL OF THE DAY














I am a Makeup Artist with over 30 years in the business. I have recently re-opened my Studio (closed due to Katrina) and have re-established my freelance career. I do all types of Makeup- from soft and natural to the most Avante-garde ...and everything in between.


I spent 1990-2004 with M.A.C., working my way to Senior Artist, and doing the Couture Collections in Milan, as well as New York Fashion Week. I also worked Moda in Miami (aka Latin Fashion Week). The list of designers includes Antonio Berardi, Roberto Cavalli, Bill Blass, Carolina Herrera, Alberta Ferretti, Ocimar Versolato, Allesandro Dell'Acqua, Lawrence Steele and many others.
Even after 30+ years, Makeup is still my passion. There is no substitute for experience, whether it is in work or life.

FYI-
YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MANY FRIENDS, BUT BEFORE SENDING A FRIEND REQUEST, PLEASE AT LEAST SEND A MESSAGE OR TAG FIRST SO THAT I KNOW WHO YOU ARE. THANKS
