About Me

My main occupation is being a makeup artist and hair stylist as well as a stylist, doing all kinds of jobs for photo, film, TV etc. If you are swedish then most likely you have seen my work many times since it includes recordcovers, musicvideos, commersials and covers for well known magazines in Sweden such as Damernas, Sportguiden, Solo, Kupé, VeckoRevyn, Frida, etc.
Seeing Michael Jacksons “Thriller” when first shown on TV in Sweden back in 1983, when I was only a little girl, was my first step to becoming a makeup artist. Fascinated by the spooky masks I several years later graduated from International Makeup Center in Stockholm, 1995. But during the time I had found a big interest in making people beautiful and also becoming aware of that I was very talented in that area. In 1997 I was discovered as a makeup artist by a well known model agency and proudly found myself working among the elite. Since then I have lived and worked as a makeup artist in Sweden as well as in London and Florens. My dream of working with masks and special effects is still there, but comfortable as I am with beauty and fashion makeup, I will only keep it on the side every now and then for now.
Living by the theory that one only regrets what one didn’t do - I had a break in my makeup career between 2000-2007 to catch up on another dream I had of being a scientist in biomedicine.
Some of the celebrities that I have done makeup and hair for:
Alexander Skarsgård, A-Teens, The Attic, Bingo Rimér, Bo Kaspers Orkester, The Boppers, Cajsa-Stina Åkerström, Caroline Giertz, Carl Lewis, Claes Rudheim, Christer Sandelin, Dee Demirbag, Ebba Blitz-Oswald, Estelle Milbourne, Systrarna Graaf, Gry Forssell, Herman Lindqvist, Honeyz, Jessica Folcker, Josefin Crafoord, Lisa Ekdahl, Louise Hoffsten, Marie Serneholt, MissMatch, Pontus Gårdinger, René Nyberg, Svante Tegnér, Therese Grankvist, etc.

Music:

I listen to all kinds of music - I am a bit confused, 'cause it actually seems like I also even like House and Trance after all :)

Movies:

If I sum it up I would say I like virus-, cinderella-, djungle adventure- and future typical movies. But my favourite movies by names are so far:

Outbreak; Gattaca; Romancing the Stone; Notting Hill; Thelma and Louise; Only You; Clueless; Ever After; Indiana Jones; Terminator; True Lies; Pretty Woman; Showgirls; Erin Brockovich; I, Robot; Armageddon; Girls Just Wanna Have Fun; Can't Buy Me Love; Jurassic Park; Matrix and Artificial Intelligence.

I can name the best shows - even if they havn't been on TV for a while (read "years" for some), that I still enjoy:

Grey's Anatomy; Desperate Housewives; Bangkok Hilton; Nip/Tuc; Lost; V; Simpsons; Friends; Sex and the City; Dr Snuggles; Americas Next Top Model

Books:

My favourite book is "The Hot Zone" by Richard Preston. It's a true-life thriller filled with facts about and history of the ebola virus.
