JOSLEEN'S
Bio
FREELANCE MAKEUP ARTIST
PHILOSOPHY
I am a Brisbane-based freelance makeup artist with over 20 years of experience working independently in the industry. I have extensive experience in all areas of makeup artistry, ranging from beauty and editorial photography sessions, international runways, stage makeup, special effects and film/television through to bridal, formal and special occasion makeup.
With my experience, technical skill and creativity, I can create the right look for any project or occasion, whether it be avant-garde fashion, period makeup or simple and understated makeup for a formal or wedding.
I have a very positive and personable approach to all my work and I like to start by having a chat to every new client to find out what their personal style is, and to discuss the look that they are going for and the level of coverage that they are comfortable with. I love working with my clients to help bring out their best features and making them feel comfortable in their own skin.
I work with two different types of makeup – traditional and airbrush – and will discuss the benefits of either option with you before we get started. All my pricing also includes the application of natural lashes to help complete your look.

...friendly, personable and a skilled makeup artist!
Josleen did my makeup for a photography workshop and I was very happy with the finished look! She walked me through the entire process, was very gentle and considerate at all times and ensured I was happy with the final product. Josleen is friendly, personable and a skilled makeup artist: I cannot recommend her enough!

I couldn’t recommend her enough
Josleen was absolutely amazing and I couldn’t recommend her enough. She was so lovely and helpful from the very beginning. I was very picky when choosing a makeup artist because it was so important to me, and I’m SO glad I chose Josleen as my makeup was absolutely perfect. During the bridal trial she took the time to understand exactly what I was after. She also gave me incredible skincare advice, and because I kept up with it, my skin looked and felt amazing on my wedding day. Thank you so much, Josleen!

Words hardly do justice to her talent
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Josleen for hair and makeup on more than a dozen occasions, and I can’t believe I haven’t shared a review until now! Words hardly do justice to her talent—she is truly exceptional in both hair and makeup. Beyond her artistry, Josleen brings calm direction and an uplifting presence. She’s fantastic to have by your side before and during photography, ensuring everything stays flawless and that you look your absolute best. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!
