Hi there! Welcome to Nicole Alexis Artistry. I am so glad you stopped by. A few quick facts about me: I have a chocolate labradoodle called Winston who is the absolute light of my life, I prefer to drink my coffee black (I get it from my dad), and my favourite shows of all time are The Office and Gilmore Girls (I have seen GG two or three times through, and I've lost track of how many times that I have re-watched The Office).

I am a certified, MAC Pro makeup artist servicing London, Ontario and surrounding area. My passion for makeup began in 2015, my first year of university. Playing around with colours and trying different techniques was a great escape from my hectic life as a university student. After a few months of experimenting, my friends convinced me to create an Instagram account for my makeup looks. I was hesitant at first because I feared what my peers would have to say about my posts, but nonetheless, I went through with creating the account and I'm so happy I did that. My first 'client' makeover was actually on my boyfriend- I asked him if I could practice on him and though he may not have actually enjoyed having makeup on (I took a photo too, but that one is saved in my archives), it was super fun and I realized how much I loved doing other people's makeup. It didn't take long for me to book up for prom in my hometown and from there, my passion continued to grow.

At the beginning of 2018, I began the makeup artistry program at Elegance Schools Inc. Shortly after, a lovely group of talented artists, MUA by A: Makeup Artistry by Alanna and Aleasha, reached out to me to join their team to provide makeup applications for special events such as weddings and other occasions. I quickly accepted their offer and have not looked back on it since. There is something so special about working with people who both share your passion and believe in the work that you do. For that, I will be forever grateful.

As a freelance makeup artist, I offer both in-studio and on-location, mobile makeup services for weddings, photography and other special events. I truly enjoy working with each of my clients to create a look that makes them feel as beautiful as they truly are. My favourite part of the makeover is definitely the reveal - there is something so special about the moment when the client first sees themselves after you've completed their look.

As of June 2018, I was certified as an Elleebana Lash Lift technician through Beauty by Preen and have been offering lash lifts and tints since. I fell in love with the Beauty by Preen team and decided to take two more courses that they offered - Brow Mapping and Sugaring, and Beginner Lash Extensions, SO if you need your brows or lashes done, I'm your gal!

Thank you for taking the time to get to know me a little bit better. I look forward to working with you and making your vision come to life!
