ROSALIE   -  Makeup Artist

Rosalie started studying cosmetology at 16. From the moment she learned the fundamentals of makeup artistry she knew that she had found her passion. With a love for painting, she saw makeup artistry as a mix of painting and sculpting: learning how to put the color wheel to use on the skin, as well as enhancing and diminishing using variations of light and dark. She loves teaching simple techniques to cover or enhance a clients problem area or favorite feature and to have them feel confident in the fact that they too can achieve this look on their own.

She loves to show clients that it is not necessary to cover up their gorgeous faces with layers and layers of makeup. That in fact, they can achieve a beautiful, finished look with just 5 products if they wish. But she always encourages their creativity in bolder looks if that is what makes them smile.

Makeup is about shining from within as well as a bit of color or sparkle on the surface for fun.

ROCHELLE   -  Makeup Artist

Rochelle has been a beauty and skincare fanatic since a young age. Mostly self-taught, she honed her skills at Mason Gross School of the Arts, where she learned classic stage makeup techniques. Understanding how to manipulate age for a specific character and how lighting affects shadow, was critical in developing her ability to trick the eye, create facial volume, contour, a look of happiness, health - almost anything is possible!

She continued her studies, under the instruction of Lead Educator at FACE Stockholm,Helen Andersson, over a decade ago. Her continued work in film, television and stage keeps her up to date on current trends and techniques. Her favorite look is natural, dewy and glowing - never overdone.

Her favorite thing is to teach how easy and simple it can be to achieve the look you want. Basic technique, the right tools and a little patience is all it takes.
