Hi, I'm Lauren. I graduated from an HND in Media Make-up in July 2008 and finished a BaHons top up in Make-Up Artistry & Special Effects in 2009. Through my HND I learnt everything from face and body painting, editorial/fashion makeup, casualty makeup and casting and moulding skills. I also obtained a City & Guilds qualification in Wigmaking and we had hairdressing lessons for the duration of the course. Through my top-up year I developed my casting and moulding skills through using newer, more industry relevant products.

As can be seen in my pictures I have worked with a hairdressing salon on some promotional pictures for internal use, I have also worked with one of the hairdresser's within the salon as his make-up artist at the Regional & then UK finals of the Wella Trend Vision 2007.

I would like to gain further experience of working with different photographers and models, I am based in Manchester and have my own transport. I have a full make-up kit with mainly Bobbi Brown products as I used to work for them, I also have a hairdressing kit and a lot of experience with working with wigs and hair pieces.

I have just been a Make-Up Artist for Title Role Productions on an episode of their series Britain's Biggest Heists which was an amazing experience and taught me so much and I can't wait to work with them again.
