About me

I’m Clara from Surrey. From as young as I can remember, I’ve always had a love and fascination for makeup. It is my one true passion and I feel so lucky at every chance I get to explore my creativity in a professional and non professional setting. I studied at a renowned makeup school and graduated with a distinction in 2021. During my time there, I studied aspects of makeup such as bridal, fashion editorial and beauty editorial as well as how to work as a professional makeup artist. I’ve since had 2 years worth of working freelance where I have gained valuable experience, expanded my skill set and had the chance to meet and work with some wonderful people. I’m so excited to build my career and I am determined to succeed, meaning in any job I am given I will be professional, punctual, hard working and eager to please those I work for. I listen and take direction well and I have had feedback from clients that I am a kind and calming. I understand the importance and power of creativity and how to apply depth and meaning into creative work and the whole process just brings me so much joy and fulfilment.

  The Queens Gambit - Quotes & Styles® V3The Queen's Gambit is an opening move, a move that is daring, a move that is positive, a move that is fun, a move that shows style, a move that breaks the rules, a move that believes there are no rules, a move that's beautiful, a move to show the world, a move that's brave, a move that has a story to tell, a move that has a quote to share. Mia Quote: “Is it better to speak or to die?” Daryl Quote: “Life is about slowly chipping away at the things that take away my freedom” Editorial: The Queens
