Nicole is a professional, trained makeup artist specializing in airbrush makeup techniques and (bridal) hairstyling. Most specifically working with everyday people who need bridal beauty services, beauty looks for special occasions, or providing personal makeup lessons, Nicole is an expert in enhancing what is naturally yours while leaving you glowing and flawless.
Nicole initially began her career in makeup as a self taught artist in 2006, however, her drive to perfect her skills, meet other artists and learn more about the industry led her to an education at George Brown's School of Makeup.
With a natural inclination towards the arts, Nicole quickly realized a career in makeup is not only a means of self expression, but also a way of putting a smile on someone's face.
Her strong background in art and design solidified by her previous education at OCAD U (Graphic Design), and experience as a textile and apparel graphic designer in the fashion industry (notably Roots Canada and Joe Fresh), plus several years of working as a freelance professional makeup artist, allowed Nicole to develop, appreciate, and refine different ideas of beauty throughout the various people she has met personally and worked with professionally.
Nicole believes an individual looks best when they feel the most confident. While bringing a person's confidence forward, she aims to bring out the best in their features.
Currently, Nicole is based in Downtown Toronto, Canada, and divides her time between running her now full time beauty business, spending time with her husband, her cat and her plants.
