I’ve been a working Makeup Artist (MUA) for over 16 years now. I love applying makeup and making my clients feel like enhanced versions of themselves. My goal for 2013 has been to bring education to the woman who isn’t sure what to do. My focus has been to help as many women as possible by encouraging, inspiring, and empowering. It’s way more than just makeup to me. My passion is to use my talents to help women who want to know more. Most tell me they tend to skip out on makeup because they simply don’t know what to do with it and/or they don’t have the time. Hearing those answers over and over again ignited a new fire in me to teach my craft to the everyday woman.

I’ve been actively training aspiring artists to the professional level for a few years now and during this time I learned even more about my processes and how to explain it to others. This has been a fantastic training ground in pushing myself to become a better artist and teacher. I attend Pro-level training classes throughout the year to stay on top of trends and techniques, all while keeping myself fresh and focused. I learn from the best of the best in the industry to keep myself growing. I’m a certified makeup nerd. Seriously, I can geek out over what to use and how to mix up something new. So what does all of this mean for you?
Ask yourself, have you ever walked into Ulta or Sephora and have found yourself completely lost in an overwhelming sea of products and/or sales people? It can be pretty intimidating when all you needed was a new lip gloss! You may even walk out with a bag filled with products that you don’t even remember what magic miracle they are supposed to do or how to use half of what you bought. Well you aren’t alone. Most women don’t have a MUA they can turn to for personalized answers that actually help! But what if you did? What if you had someone who could answer questions about defining your brows to flatter your eye shape or how to apply makeup in under ten minutes? Wouldn’t it be nice to have the fear taken away and replace it with confidence? Well let’s make it happen!

I want to hear from you. Yes, YOU! Comment below and tell me what makeup or skin challenges you have currently. I’m creating classes right now for all of the issues you may be facing including changing skin, acne/redness, lessening the appearance of wrinkles. You tell me what you are having trouble with and I will incorporate the answers in to a class or workshop especially for you. I can’t wait to hear from you!
Love, Jules
