Hello! Welcome to The Beauty Focus! I am a professional freelance makeup artist and beauty blogger. I first fell in love with makeup when I worked for Clinique Cosmetics working with the color and creativity of the makeup as well as how much I love the result of making people look and feel beautiful. After some health and life changes I decided to pursue it again and get my certification in makeup artistry. My blog is mostly about makeup (I'm working on a sperate site for my makeup artistry portfolio) but also includes skincare, bath & spa, etc..., with a little bit of what else I see through my eyes as beautiful mixed in, and of course all things related to beauty. Hope you enjoy it. Thanks for stopping by!
