I have worked as makeup artist for 17 years starting in retail with prestigious brands such as Dior and Shiseido then working my way to launching Illamasqua in Ireland. I was a lead artist for bespoke fashion shows and events in Belfast as well as teaching masterclasses in schools and store events – this then led me to move to Australia where I worked for Illamasqua, MAC and went onto become an Account Manager for Beauty brands with clients such as Loreal, Armani, Coty, Dior, SKII, Elizabeth Arden, Benefit amongst many others. Through these brands I have ran masterclasses, worked on award shows, held pop up store events as well as ran press and training brands for OCC via Sephora when they launched in Australia.
On my return to the UK I was a Manager for MAC in Selfridges Oxford Street until I went on to have my children.
Currently I work as a freelance artist where I cater for Bridal, Fashion shoots, commercial shoots, Festival makeup and lots more.
