I also admire and am inspired by lots of other make-up artists - Sam and Nic Chapman, (Pixiwoo), Lisa Eldridge, Charlotte Tilbury, Rae Morris, Kevyn Aucoin, Alex Box, Polly Osmond (whom I used to go to to college with in London,) Clayre Hemmings, (who I went to college with too, and is an awesome make-up artist.)

I will soon be teaching a new Media make-up course at the Grimsby Institute, which starts in September, which I am very proud to be involved in.  We will be using Illamasqua make-up, (Alex Box is the Creative Director of this brand...and is actually from Grimsby.)  It seems Grimsby has some very creative individuals!  For more information contact Janice Yardley at Grimsby Institute, (Janice will be providing the teaching for the hair part of the course.)

I also created a competition on Facebook to win a make-up session with me.  This attracted hundreds of applicants and some lovely comments and feedback.  It is always nice to hear how people appreciate me and my work...it has taken me long enough!  A lovely lady called Mrs Niblett won and came for a make-up session today, (23rd of Feb.)  I only run these competitions about once a year so keep your eyes peeled!
