Lisa began her career in the cosmetics industry in 1999 in Bangkok, Thailand. Her work is both very natural and unusually good. This is not an accident, nor is it the result of talent alone. Great makeup artistry starts with the right training, training available only in the film and fashion capitols of LA and New York. Only a handful of people graduate from this regimen each year and Lisa is a product of that training. Lisa was trained by Mirielle Bertrand who is truly at the top of her profession, worldwide, and passes along to her protégées over 20 years of industry insider knowledge and refinement.
Lisa’s hairstyling training came from Sheena Mi Lee who is similarly recognized, worldwide, as being at the very top of her profession in both the film and high fashion industries.
Most makeup training is done by the cosmetics companies, with a focus on the sale of product. In Hollywood, the goal is different. A star whose face is going to be projected on a 80 foot screen requires makeup that makes them look fabulous, but does not draw attention to itself. The style is natural and requires artists who consistently achieve outstanding results. Such an artist will use the absolute best product at that moment for the specific purpose, information readily shared among the industry insiders. Dozens of different cosmetics lines are used in favor of brand loyalty. The same is true regarding hairstyling, with industry insiders again pooling their knowledge on the latest and best in styling and products.
It is this approach, background and attitude that Lisa brings to her work. The result is world class excellence in makeup and hairstyling artistry - natural and beautiful every time.
