Aimee Connolly Makeup Artist

Make-Up Artist & Tutor with over 6 years experience in the industry working on counters such as MAC, on Tv events with Tv3 & RTE, and in Press spreads and editorials. Every makeover is tailored to the client's needs to ensure you look you YOUR best!

I began my career working with Benefit Cosmetics in House of Fraser and I then switched over to Urban Decay Cosmetics. I spent three years working with this brand where I gained invaluable experience both with sales and working on a wide variety of different clients. I soon tapped into the freelance market where I specialised in special occasion makeup & bridal. My profile grew quickly and so I decided it was time to leave Urban Decay and move onto my next venture, MAC Cosmetics. Towards the end of my career with Urban Decay I helped train in the new employees, which only fuelled my love of teaching and I often stepped up to cover the absence of the manager/assitant manager.
I was appointed to the MAC Cosmetics counter in BT Dublin, their flagship store. MAC is a great company to work for and I thoroughly enjoyed my time there but was forced to leave as the volume of my own personal clients grew to an extent that it wasn't feasible to upkeep my position there and juggle my freelance work at the same time.
I have since worked for myself, covering nearly every section of the industry, be it doing makeup for TV, Press, Photoshoots, Bridal or just general occasions. I enjoy every aspect of my job and am grateful to be so busy. Given my love of teaching, I frequently run my own Make-Up Workshops which I adore and I tutor part-time in Vanity X MakeUp Academy also.

I have built up years of valuable experience in the industry and I make sure to channel this to each client to ensure their makeover is tailored to their needs and similarly that each makeup is catered specifically to whatever job/task/theme appointed to me.
