Where did your journey with beauty begin?
I suppose my earliest memories would be of myself flicking through all my magazines. I remember always being really focused on how the beauty looks would complement the outfits. Back then it was all about pop stars, which really were the spotlight of the media.
What did makeup mean – and look like – for you as a youth?
Definitely a rebellious, dark kind of look for sure. I probably wouldn’t ever rock it these days, but I love to look back on it.
What made you first see it as a career?
I think it must have been around the time when I was at college, and I would get friends and family paying me to do their makeovers. It felt so new and kind of unbelievable to be paid for something I loved doing.

What does beauty mean to you?
It’s a difficult one because it changes every time I work, to be honest. That in itself is the great thing about beauty and self-expression through makeup; it’s such a temporary state. At the end of the day, it’s washed off and you never see it again. It gives you permission to be totally unpredictable.
