Meet the lovely Nikola

HELLO FABULOUS,



Make-up by Nikola

 Hi I am Nikola and Makeup Artistry is my passion!  Creating a feeling of excitement and confidence for a client is truly what I take pleasure in. 

After working on fun makeup looks for a L'Oreal Fashion Week Show for a friends label I decided to take my painting background and expand my skills to include faces and bodies. I moved from Wellington (New Zealand) to Christchurch in 2004 and studied full time for a year, completing my Certificate of Makeup Design and Production at the NZ College of Design & Arts.

Make-up by Nikola

In the past eight years I have gained a wide range of experiences, working on several films, theatre productions, fashion shows, photo shoots and for makeup and skincare companies.  Highlights have been working as Head of Special Effects for the Montana World of Wearable Arts Awards in Nelson and Wellington, and working with New Zealand’s top award winning artists Body FX on various body art designs.

I especially love beauty makeup’s and creating illusions with makeup, not surgery. After working and travelling across the USA I moved to Australia with my now fiancé and have been busy first managing a cosmetics store, and then one year ago joining up with Runway Express Experience to share my makeup application knowledge at our wonderful parties, and offer my makeup artistry skills to many ladies needing a professional treat for their wedding party, school formal, or photo shoot.

When I'm not wielding my makeup brushes I enjoy decorating cakes, painting with acrylics, illustrating children’s books, flower arranging and enjoying nature.  I am now eagerly awaiting what I believe will be my greatest creation yet, a little baby in two weeks!  I look forward to meeting many more beautiful people and helping them achieve their desired look.

Love Nikola x o x o
