About Me
Hi. I'm Gia. I'm a freelance makeup artist with a 8+ years experirience, an extensive makeup kit and versatility in style. I consider my work to be very polished and clean. I'm pretty particular as to who I work with because I like the the images to be perfect in every way. I'm a perfectionist and I see every detail that is in and out of place. I use only the best products in my kit...Laura Mercier, Dior, YSL, MAC and I use prestige skin care as needed. I have experience print, film, video, runway, editorial, portfolio, weddings and can do any looks including, but not limited to artistic, high-fashion, beauty, glam, etc.
Here's a list of some of my experience:
