About
I’m Marianne, a professional bridal makeup artist based in Victoria BC
With over 17 years of industry experience, I’ve gained a global perspective. From my start in Johannesburg to work in Dubai and the UK, including tenure at MAC Cosmetics as a Trainer, I’ve honed my craft in diverse settings. Some highlights include backstage work at multiple London Fashion Weeks, makeup for celebrity events, and global travel with MAC.
I’m here to enhance your beauty and boost your confidence.
My makeup artistry revolves around you, the individual. While I adore the versatility of my craft, my primary focus is on making people feel amazing. I specialize in creating glowing and natural looks tailored to your unique style. I embrace makeup as an inclusive art form, and excel in working with all skin types and tones.
When I’m not doing makeup you’ll find me on the beach with my family, hiking with my husky Luna, sipping a good latte or planning our next trip to Hawaii.
"Made my wedding vision come to life"
Marianne was so amazing to work with! She makes you feel comfortable right from the start, and made my wedding vision come to life. She is able to make you feel beautiful without putting on too much makeup, and is able to work with your features to make it feel bridal. Marianne got sick before my wedding and we appreciated her transparency, ability to problem solve, and her quickness to come up with effective solutions if she could not attend. Ultimately we decided an under the weather Marianne was better than no Marianne at all and she did awesome, even when not feeling 100%. Thanks so much, can't wait to work together in the future!
