Meet the founder
Cristina Romeo ~ Owner and Creative Director
At the age of 7, Cristina began to show an interest in theater arts. Her inner creativity yearned to express itself. So when on stage, it was only natural for her to act and get involved with learning the techniques of stage makeup. She found a muse in the ability to transform into the characters she portrayed through the use of makeup. Cristina ultimately became a member of the International Thespian Society.
Her newfound love for makeup propelled her toward pursuing a career in the industry. She attended Joe Blasco Makeup Academy at the original Sunset Gower Studios. After a year on intensive daily curriculum, she realized this was the path for her. Cristina moved forward and became a salon artist for years.
She then ventured out to San Francisco, New York and even Florence, Italy where she experienced the highlights and pitfalls of a budding freelance artist. Upon her return to the salon industry, Cristina knew she needed to create her own environment to blossom as a creative force. Through commitment and passion, her company was born.
With a continual effort to learn, expand and create, she has embarked upon the freelance world once again from an established and successful business owner perspective.
