Cosmetics/Hair

Since a little girl, I have taken a great interest in beauty related activities. I spent most of my life watching videos and tutorials how to do makeup and interesting hairstyles. Practicing over the years, I have became fairly good at makeup. People recognize me for my talent in cosmetics and often reach out to me to do their makeup for events. Before I started working more often during the global pandemic, I made a beauty Instagram account so others could see my different looks and creativity. I not only love makeup but I love to share it with others. Makeup is my passion.
