In the dazzling realm of beauty and glamour, few artists command attention quite like Alesandra Makeup. With a career that reads like a fairy tale and a talent that transforms faces into living works of art, this makeup virtuoso has carved out a niche that's uniquely her own. From humble beginnings to the glittering heights of celebrity red carpets, Alesandra's story is one of passion, perseverance, and the transformative power of makeup.

A Dream Takes Flight

Alesandra's love affair with makeup began in childhood, a passion that would simmer for years before exploding into a full-fledged career. "Since being a little girl I was obsessed with makeup, collecting magazine photos and covers and creating my own portfolio," she reminisces. 

But it wasn't until the age of 28 that she took the plunge, daring to follow her heart into the world of professional makeup artistry. "I finally dared to follow my dream and first passion MAKEUP!" This sentiment echoes through her work, infusing every brushstroke with a palpable joy that clients can't help but feel.

Alesandra's journey in the industry began with Charlotte Tilbury, a name synonymous with luxury beauty. Over six years, she ascended from newcomer to Global Pro artist, a testament to her exceptional skill and unwavering dedication. "I worked my way up to becoming their Global Pro artist. This journey lasted 6 years and it took me where I never dreamed of reaching before," she says with pride. 

Her time with Charlotte Tilbury was a whirlwind of high-profile events and celebrity encounters. "I've done fashion weeks across the globe, the iconic Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show which was probably the most surreal day of my career , as well as other major events such as Cannes Film Festival, The BRITs, BAFTAs and Fashion For Relief Show."

Alesandra's talent has put her in contact with some of the biggest names in entertainment. "I've been entrusted by Charlotte Tilbury herself to do makeup on some of the most iconic celebrities on the red carpet," she shares, listing off names that would make any makeup enthusiast weak at the knees: "Amal Clooney, Salma Hayek, Olivia Palermo, Emma Thompson to name a few." 

Alesandra adds, “I was involved from the development process of a product all the way to creating the makeup looks for the campaigns, which would be seen in print, television, digitally, and on huge billboards around the world. Knowing my makeup looks have been seen worldwide at such a large scale has made me humble and incredibly proud.”

The Alesandra Signature

When asked about her signature style, Alesandra's eyes light up. "My signature style is an ethereal-glam makeup look with emphasis on seductive eyes and dreamy glow!" she exclaims. But it's more than just a look – it's a philosophy. "My passion is to make every woman feel like a movie star walking down her own red carpet, with detail and perfection from head to toe."

This commitment to perfection doesn't come cheap – Alesandra's services start at £1000. But for those seeking the ultimate in makeup artistry, it's a small price to pay for transformation.

A Memorable Moment: The Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

When asked about her most memorable project, Alesandra's eyes light up with excitement. "It’s so hard choosing just one as I feel a special unique connection with all my clients!" she exclaims. But one experience stands out above the rest: the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.

"If I have to choose one that I will forever cherish is doing makeup at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show," Alesandra reminisces. "I did Stella Maxwell, Behati Prinsloo, and Adriana Lima. There energy backstage was electric, this was such an important moment for everyone there, we were part of this shared out-of-body experience."

This high-profile event not only showcased Alesandra's exceptional skills but also provided a profound insight into the transformative power of makeup. "I realised then that even though these women were some of the biggest names in the industry they were human just like the rest of us," she reflects. "I saw them transform themselves, as the makeup was being done, into absolute goddesses. Makeup has that power to transfer oneself, to give confidence and an inner sas that even a VS model needs!"

The Tools of the Trade

Every artist has their favorite tools, and Alesandra is no exception. When asked about the products she can't work without, she emphasizes the importance of skincare. "I need all my skincare products as I know makeup will never look its best if I don't do a proper skincare prep," she insists.

As for makeup, Alesandra's kit is a carefully curated collection of high-performance products. "I love the Lisa Eldridge Elevated glow," she shares, "Shiseido complexion products - all their foundations are incredible, Charlotte Tilbury airbrush powder and setting spray. Makeup Forever cream blushers!"

These products form the backbone of Alesandra's artistry, allowing her to create the ethereal, glowing looks that have become her signature. Each item is chosen not just for its quality, but for its ability to enhance and transform, turning every face into a canvas for Alesandra's unique vision of beauty.

Never Stop Learning

Despite her success, Alesandra remains committed to growth and learning. "I am makeup obsessed," she admits, "so I follow every influential makeup artist, I attend masterclasses, I watch videos I read everything that has to do with makeup! I will never stop learning and perfecting my craft!" This insatiable appetite for knowledge keeps her at the cutting edge of beauty trends and techniques.

Her advice to aspiring makeup artists? "Dream big and chase those dreams! Do makeup do a lot of makeup !" she encourages. "Work in a store, there isn't a better experience and a better way to improve than working on hundreds of people! The best way to achieve that is working in a store, a popular brand that is very busy. Be your biggest critic but also seek feedback from those you admire! Look at your work and try to make it better next time!"

The Future is Bright

As Alesandra looks to the future, her ambitions are as bold as her makeup looks. "Professionally I want to do all the fabulous wedding across the world and one day own my own makeup school!" she declares.
