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.

CHRISTEN WAS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!
​
Due to circumstances, I had to change my hair and makeup artist 2 weeks before my wedding, I messaged Christen seeing if she had availability.
Within 30 minutes of getting in contact with her, she pulled together a team of hairstylists, herself and another make up artist to do mine and my bridesmaids hair and make up for my wedding day.
The transparency given to my wedding party from Christen was amazing. She is very knowledgeable and had amazing suggestions given the inspiration we had. Between the affordability and how quick she was to respond, I would absolutely recommend Christen!!!
Christen Was amazing right from the beginning, From her responding back to my make up application on my wedding day, Christen made the day stress free and made me feel beautiful!
Highly recommended Christen!!
