About me

My journey in the beauty industry began in the heart of Dublin, at the iconic Brown Thomas in the late 1990s. There, I was surrounded by inspiring artists and leading global brands. During this time, I developed a deep passion for makeup and hair, and for how it can enhance not just appearance, but confidence too.

After building a strong foundation through training and education, I followed my curiosity and sense of adventure to Sydney, Australia. What began as a fresh chapter soon grew into more than a decade of freelance work. During this time, I worked with a wide range of clients across commercial, fashion, and bridal projects.

Along the way, my career took me to many beautiful locations. From the beaches of Thailand and Sri Lanka to the elegance of the Maldives, Italy, Spain, and France, each experience helped shape my eye and my approach to makeup.

Eventually, I returned home to Dublin and launched MWMAKEUP LIMITED with a clear vision. My aim was, and still is, to offer high quality, tailored makeup and hair services that feel both personal and professional. Whether I’m working on a commercial campaign, an editorial shoot, or a wedding morning, I bring a calm and collaborative energy to every project.

 

Today, I’m known for creating natural, glowing makeup looks and refined men’s grooming that feel timeless and effortless. Most importantly, I genuinely love what I do. Especially those quiet moments when someone looks in the mirror and feels truly like themselves, just elevated.
