Joby's Makeup Philosophy...

The definition of beauty in today’s world is more broader and more inclusive than anytime in history. Makeup can open up a whole new world of expressiveness and possibilities. The empowering, liberating and transformative power of Makeup can be used to enhance or completely change your inner and outward persona. Makeup in the hands of a creative and skillful practitioner transforms both the artist and the patron into works of Art. A seasoned Makeup Artist has the capability of visually communicating what people feel inside and guide their inner semblance and persona to the surface. At its foundation, makeup should enhance your already, natural beauty.
