Introduction

My attention to detail, active listening skills and uncanny ability to keep the skin supple and smooth after application. Natural, Radiant Long-Wear Makeup (lasts up to 16 hours with minimal touch-up) All makeup applications are customized and showcase, radiant skin with subtle contouring. Practical, natural makeup that looks clean and feels light on the skin. A photo-finished look upon completion. Specializing in in-studio and on-location bridal, production, photography, commercial, advertising, corporate events, individual and group makeup classes. My goal is to reward you with exceptional customer service, while accentuating your best face forward look. For clients who wear minimal makeup, I enjoy teaching how minimal makeup can give you a bold, yet refined look. A look that will draw emphasis to your best features. Disclaimer: (License Number GA ES007458) (License Number NC E23523) I am a licensed esthetician in the State of Georgia & North Carolina. I attended The International School of Skincare, Nail Care & Massage Therapy. In Georgia we’re required to complete 1,000 hours (9 months) in coursework as well as successfully pass a written and practical exam for the State Board of Georgia. I also have years of hands on experience dealing with conditions of the skin and various skin ailments. When hiring an artist for makeup services it’s important to know that they’re licensed and knowledgeable when it comes to caring for the health of your skin and understanding; sanitation and dis-infectantion. We can’t assume the artist knows how to; properly prep your skin for makeup, properly clean, disinfect and sanitize their instruments after each client, and or know when to discard makeup pass it’s expiration date. Please do your due diligence and research your artist before hiring, not just let anyone who responds to your request touch your beautiful face! Hire a licensed professional. *Multiple reviews posted on my Instagram in my highlights, Facebook Business page under “Dionné Ford Makeup” and on Google.
