'All of our work is based on the art of making you look the best version of yourself. Makeup is truly an art form, and it took years of practice before I decided to take that leap, and start my own business. Since then, I have been transforming my clients in the greater Brisbane area into absolutely stunning art. I am passionate about what I do, and love to spread my love for makeup and cosmetics to all of my clients.' - Marie Le
