Makeup by Claire offers a full mobile service anywhere in the North West of England, although depending on the assignment I am willing to work both nationally and internationally.Following my graduation, I immediately established my own business as a mobile therapist and built a loyal client base in the Rossendale Valley taking a number of additional qualifications through organisations such as NSI, Lash Perfect, Fake Bake, St Tropez and Solutions by Hive.After identifying a niche in the Northwest for a Makeup Artist specialising in Mineral Makeup I undertook a number of intensive courses with Jane Iredale, specialising in the Wedding Market. As this side of my business became busier it effectively subsumed the Beauty Therapy business and I continued to study, gaining additional accreditation as a MAC Pro Makeup Artist.Requests from clients and photographers for a service which encompasses every aspect of the photo-shoot led me to undertake further training in Hair Styling with Industry leaders including Pam Wrigley, Patrick Cameron and L’Oreal.After 8 years, I am able to blend the knowledge I have gained to create wearable, durable hair and makeup for real women; with a touch of glamour and I have been told I bring an artistic flair, professionalism, creativity, and a unique sense of style to every assignment.I am proud to have been nominated for The Wedding Industry Awards and attained Regional Finalist – Makeup Artist for 2012, 2013 & 2014. I have also been nominated for 2015.I work in most fields including Bridal, Photographic, Special Occasion and Prom/Party and have extensive experience of both Hair and Makeup. In addition to working with clients and photographers, I also teach both Hair and Makeup techniques.To look at examples of my work, please visit the gallery page on my website http://www.makeup-byclaire.co.uk/galleries/
