What sets me apart in the beauty industry?

Here’s what I’m known for

The Natural Look

My speciality is less-is-more makeup. With a 98% cruelty-free/vegan kit, I love to use makeup and simple hairstyling to highlight your inner beauty. It’s important for you to look and feel like yourself in your photos, for your event, or on your wedding day.

Education

I believe in demystifying makeup. Sessions with me can also include a complimentary lesson, so you can recreate the look at home. I share all my best tips & tricks during the application process to help you to learn how to do the technique on your own.
