Suaad D Artistry

I have formally been involved in makeup for the past 6 years and in hairstyling for the last 3 years.  My informal years were basically me, playing around and practicing the looks I would see in magazines and this probably started around the age of 4! I have always been creative and my school years were filled with acrylic paints, canvas, pastels you name it. As such, I now carry that creative flair over in to my makeup work.

I studied at CPUT and shortly after finishing my course, I landed a job at PMU. Not long thereafter, I found myself working at Mac and the rest, as they say, is history. From there I learned how to work on various skin types, colours and learn industry secrets and tips. I have worked on runway, magazines, bridal clients, special events, corporate, stock photo shoots, model portfolios and events.

I started my freelance career in 2009 and in 2010 I decided to leave the fashion industry to focus more on my special events and bridal clients as I absolutely love to share in the pageantry and excitement of weddings! Through the use of my art background, I approach my client’s makeup in the same way. What is the feeling and mood we’re trying to capture? Your makeup is an extension and expression of yourself and how you wear it can say a myriad of things about who you are. As a professional, it’s my goal to help you see yourself in the same, beautiful way that I do.
