After 6 years of working as a Sales Manager in the hotel industry, Krystyn decided to throw her corporate aspirations to the wind and follow her passion. In January 2008, Krystyn made the decision to pursue a career as a Professional Makeup Artist.
Krystyn prides herself on being a completely self-taught artist. “My father is an Artist, so I feel that a lot of my artistic abilities are innate. And I acquired my professional intelligence from my mother who is more of business minded individual. I got the best of both of them-I consider myself to be a Type A, creative free-spirit! Being a freelance Makeup Artist allows me to express and exercise both elements of me.”
Krystyn describes her work as: strong, clean and expressive. She enjoys the borrowing of a variety of styles from different sources including other artists, film and art and combining them to make them her own. Although she has developed an eclectic style and approach, the one thing that remains constant is her precise application and attention to detail. Krystyn’s passion for her craft is apparent in her work. She states, “I believe that the greatest days in your life are the day you were born, and the day you realize why you were born-I was born to do makeup.”
