About Me

REGISTRATION CODE: MUA08

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Lipstick is overrated

The Celebrity Makeup Symposium is an annual 3 day event where Celebrity Makeup Artists are hand selected to educate aspiring Makeup Artists and beauty industry professionals on the craft and business of the makeup artistry industry
arTIAstry was established in March 2006 I began painting faces in 2003...
A friend motivated me to become a Makeup Artist because she believed in me. Back then I was focused on becoming a commercial / print model and at the time I really didn't know the first thing about makeup application. One day she says "you live at the makeup counters, you should become a Makeup Artist", that was in 2001.
From that point on I was determined and prepared to equip myself with the necessary knowledge & skills that will enable me to become a full time freelance Makeup Artist.
I pride myself on avoiding negativity and surrounding myself with positive individuals who have motivated, taught and encouraged me to continue working at perfecting my craft. I love this thing called "Makeup Artistry!"
Reach for the stars because the sky is NOT the limit!
The journey continues...
Peace, Love & Lipgloss,
