Amanda Jean - Minnesota based Hair and Makeup Artist

What makes your artistry unique?: My ability to see colors for what they are and using them to my advantage. Custom blending unique palettes and shades per individual to enhance their natural beauty and play up their true tones. Being able to create textures, shadows and highlights to give you that chiseled jawline you’ve always dreamed of. Achieving sultry bright doe-eyes, capturing your beautiful post workout flush (or post wine, whatever you’re into) a flirtatious pout, radiant skin and a lit from within glow.
What inspires you? The clients that sit in my chair and hearing about their failures, successes, dreams and biggest fears. Makeup artists hold a very intimate position and many times we have the opportunity to prepare you for battle. Not only will you look fierce, be comfortable in your skin and feel the best version of yourself but you will be able to enter your wedding, funeral or job interview with your head proudly held high. I am also inspired by all forms of art and other artists. Previously a painter, makeup has become my medium.
