Hi, I am Sav, Professional lecturer, Makeup artist and Scientist.
My passion for makeup began as a little girl, and yes we have all heard that story of raiding our mother’s drawers for makeup- and yes that was me. I am definitely not your average makeup artist, I studied science most of my life and graduated in 2005 Bsc Biomedical Science. In 2006 I became a qualified secondary school science teacher and have a MA Education. I combine both my passion for science and love for makeup and believe that makeup is a mixture of art and science where I use colour theory, facial structure and shapes to enhance natural beauty so that clients feel like the best version of themselves.
I launched my Makeup Academy last year as I wanted to help aspiring makeup artists experience the best makeup education so that they are confident to start their business when they finish their training with me. The truth is many newly qualified makeup artists feel unprepared for the challenges they face when they start their career as they have not had in depth training about working on a wide range of clients, including different skin tones, ethnicities and skin types and struggle to get their business going in saturated market as they have not had training in modern day business and marketing. This was me when I started out, and I don't want this for other aspiring artists.
I have have trained with the best in the business including Ariel Tejada (The Kardashian's makeup artist), Mario Dedivanoic, Celebrity makeup artist Jordan Liberty and Melissa Sophia from channel 5 programme 100% hotter.
I have trained with the best makeup artists in the business and provide a personalised experience for all my clients. For me, its not just about makeup, I Like to go that extra mile for my clients, whether that be a pampering bridal experience or educating my clients on the best products to use for their skin. I've not just a makeup artist, I have 16 years experience as an educator, trained and qualified in providing skincare facials and I have a customer service background. I bring all these skills to my business to make sure my clients have the best experience.
