Natalie explains that her journey towards makeup wasn’t necessarily Plan A. “I was always crazy about makeup and have been face painting on and off for years. After makeup college, I pursued tattoo artistry but unfortunately I had to give it up due to serious back problems. Last year, at 26, I returned to BFEI Blackrock to study makeup and once again became obsessed. I have been face painting again since then.” Natalie’s looks are so polished and pristine and that she says, is down to practice.
“It takes a lot of practice and hard work but if you focus on it and take the time to do something with makeup every day you'll see a big difference really quickly. Learning about light and shade is the most important part for sure.” For those starting out in the industry, Natalie offers some advice. “Be confident in your style and who you are with your work, never question anything your second guessing with colour, go with it! I use to constantly question everything I did but that's what makes your work yours!”
