about me
Growing up as a competitive dancer, in the era of YouTube tutorials, Christen quickly fell in love with the artistry of makeup. At the age of 12 she learnt how to fully apply stage makeup looks on herself, and always assisted fellow performers. Christen’s passion for makeup artistry naturally led her to attend Sheridan College’s Makeup for Media and Creative Arts program. She successfully completed many courses including Era & Period Makeup, Special Effects, Character Design, and took additional courses in Bridal Makeup & Hair.
​
While in school, she gained substantial experience in the industry by volunteering in fashion shows, professional photoshoots, special events, and client work. Christen continues to freelance in Bridal, Editorial, and Commercial Makeup Artistry. She is currently located in Milton, Ontario (GTA).
Christen is motivated to bring her passion and skills to any project. When you sit in Christens chair, her goal is to make you feel beautiful from the inside out. She loves to share a good laugh and will always bring a positive attitude to your appointment.

Testimonials
BEST MUA IN THE AREA!
​
Christen is a very professional and amazing person. Since the day I booked her services she was always there when I had a question or concern. Her prices are very reasonable and her job is stunning, I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to do my makeup and hair on my wedding day. I got many compliments from all my guests but the best part is that my makeup and hair lasted all day!
