About me
Driven by my love for sharing knowledge and elevating industry standards, and due to popular demand I have hosted my own Hair and Makeup Masterclasses. These masterclasses allow me to share my tried-and-tested techniques with fellow bridal artists.
Hosting my own masterclass has been a lifelong aspiration, and I am so happy to have hosted so many in 2024. I enjoy helping others to level up their skills and fulfil their dreams within the makeup and hair industry.
Since 2002, I've thrived as a full-time professional makeup artist and hairstylist in London, trained at the esteemed Glauca Rossi School of Makeup under the talented artist, Hannah Murray, who was Charlotte Tilbury's First Assistant at the time and she taught me how to create that ultimate glossy skin and nude lipstick the Charlotte Tilbury way! This was a long time before Charlotte Tilbury's products came to life!
My passion for empowering brides to realise their dreams through the art of makeup has been a driving force since I first picked up a makeup brush. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with celebrities, creating stunning looks for commercial shoots, and gracing the pages of prestigious magazines and fashion houses. These experiences have enriched my skills, providing me with a broad spectrum of inspiration for my bridal work.
As the lead fashion and beauty tutor at Brushstroke Makeup School for the past 16 years, I've had the privilege of sharing my knowledge and expertise to aspiring artists, shaping the next generation of talent in the industry.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn from me and take your makeup skills to the next level!
