I'm a Dublin based MUA who qualified in 2008 with a CIBTAC diploma in media makeup. Prior to this I attended an intensive makeup course which helped me to gain great product knowledge and insight into the makeup world thus enticing me to study makeup further. To date I have been collorborating with many photographers and attended several Strobist Meets which has allowed me to put my skills into action and work with many passionate and creative people...I have worked on some short films and my work has appeared in the Sun and the Irish Times newspapers..I currently work part-time on a cosmetic counter.

I'm currently looking to add beauty and high fashion shots to my portfolio.

    "Melissa is a great makeup artist in every sense of the word. She is cool under pressure when dealing with large shoots, and is always professional. Her strengths lie in interpreting and developing a concept, and her input has been invaluable. I'm sure she will go far in the industry, and I look forward to our next shoot.."

    "Melissa is a talented and committed makeup artist. She is willing to go out of her way to make a shoot and always provides professional, constructive input. She can turn around multiple models with complex makeup on time and under pressure and sources her materials from far and wide so that she is able to provide the photog with something a little different and consequently, more interesting. Thanks for all your help Mel."
