I believe all women are pretty without makeup - but with the right makeup can be pretty powerful!
Hi I’m Caroline,
I’m a French Makeup Artist based in Nottingham, East Midlands.
Originally from Dreux, which is near Paris, I now live in the UK with my husband, Simon, and my two young daughters, Margaux and Matilda.
My passion for makeup began at an early age, when I would watch my mum and older sister apply theirs. I found it fascinating how they elegantly adapted their look for any occasion.
Once I learnt how to transform myself in the same way - and felt the phenomenal confidence boost the right makeup gives you - I knew I wanted to help other people experience it.
From passion to action
Whilst still living in France, I studied beauty and then makeup at Forum Makeup, an international makeup school in Paris. And, then, after moving to the UK, I worked at MAC Cosmetics for 10 years, whilst also working as a freelance Makeup Artist on photoshoots, weddings and special occasions.
Working for such a big brand as MAC also gave me the opportunity to learn how to teach others how to perfect their makeup routine.
The skills and experience I gained throughout these fantastic experiences have been priceless in my development into the Makeup Artist I wanted to be. It's enabled me to be confident working with all skin types and tones, so that I can create stunning looks designed with the client’s tastes and preferences at the heart.
What do I do?
I can definitely say that I am now at my happiest when I’m helping people to look and feel their best!
My aim is to work with you – catering to your individual taste – to create a flawless, unique look so that you feel comfortable and confident ahead of your special occasion.
I do this through offering a variety of makeup services, including bridal, special occasions and photography.
I also offer one-to-one makeup lessons, online makeup lessons for both individuals and groups and mini makeup parties.
My kit! Well, I like to use MAC Cosmetics, Charlotte Tilbury, Nars, Anastatia Beverly hills and Make up Forever to name a few. But it’s forever evolving as there are now so many amazing brands out there bringing great products all the time. It’s also my job to try them out to give you the best advice and tell you about the latest trends.
