About Me
Who am I?
My name is Andrea Coe O'Donnell. I'm a licensed cosmetologist and
professional makeup artist. I started out in the 80's as a hairstylist, but
quickly traded in my scissors and comb for lipstick and powder...
and never looked back!
I've spent much of my 20+ year career specializing in bridal & special
event makeup within the salon/spa industry, which has engraved in me
a very high professional service standard that I couldn't shake if I tried...
These days I'm also involved in a more creative and exciting style of
makeup in the form of face and bodypainting, as well as print and
runway, fashion and beauty, editorial and commercial makeup work.
My overall style is colorful, wild, creative, vivid, and FUN!!
I truly enjoy transforming ordinary faces into extraordinary works of art!
