WELCOME TO MY SITE

    “Evoking images of beauty through the art of makeup is my mission. I feel that makeup is more than color and texture, I believe it has 
transformative powers and can be very therapeutic.
    
    I dedicated my career in creating truly memorable experiences to all who sit in my chair. My signature "Red carpet glamour" is very unique. My passion and determination have fueled me to become an in-demand artist. 
     With my experience in Film, Stage, Print and Runway make up, and working with some Film Directors, Local artists and Celebrities,
2009 was a great year for me, When i won as the Make up Artist of the Year for ”Kasalang Filipino” of Ever Bilena, Bacolod City Chapter. It was a wonderful opportunity for me to gain insight and experience from ICONS who had influenced the fashion and the beauty industry.
    Today, I am an artist for the leading Modeling Agency in Bacolod City and Official make up artist for    the  Clay Wedding and Events, and continues to freelance for the fashion and entertainment ”.
   "The best way to enhance your eyes is to smile."

"My passion for my work comes from my love of art. I've been an artist for many years working in a variety of mediums, Stage, Character, Films and Print. In 2009 I won as the Ever Bilena gandang pinay hair and make up competition,as Best make up Artist (Kasalang Filipino - Bacolod Leg);

Here I found the best of both worlds, My passion for art and my ability to share that with the rest of the world. 

I believe in the beauty of everyone. Everyone possess beauty and spirit. It is my job to help other embrace this, allowing you to feel more comfortable, at ease and in love with who you truly are.

My desire is to increase the awareness of Makeup artistry and the importance of this in the everyday lives of every individuals. Not just an afterthought, this art form can change people's lives. Bring out your inner beauty and boost your well being!!"
