I am Swedish makeup-artist who very recently moved to Paris from Stockholm, surely one of the best decisions of my life this far! I am very devoted to my job, simply because I like it so much, I find it hard to think I would have any other profession for a long time, and why would I!? I love the playfulness of the work, the textures and colours of all those wonderful products, the creativity of the industry and to constantly be meeting creative, inspiring, talented and interesting persons. I started as a makeup-artist four years ago at Sara Flygare makeup-school. After two years of modelling mostly between Spain, Italy and Stockholm I have for the past two years dedicated all of my time to my job as a makeup-artist with the base in Stockholm. Some of my previous clients are Nakkna, Weekdays/Cheap Monday, Pudel, Beckmans, Oriflame Damernas värld, Galore, Pause and many others and I have frequently assisted Kajsa Svanberg (among other top-makeup-artists in Sweden) for various of the main-shows in Stockholm. Now I´m aiming for meeting new talented and ambitious people to work with here in Paris and I am really hoping for the opportunity to assist the best international makeup-artists. Apart from this I am at the moment working hard to learn French as fast as possible, it´s a beautiful language but far from easy and patience isn´t always my best quality...
