Jess Vilaysane
I am a Pro Makeup Artist with over 10+ years experience. Makeup has been a passion of mine since I was just a pre-teen. I use Makeup as a creative outlet, it definitely helped me get through tough days growing up, it gave me something to look forward to. I started watching YouTube videos religiously and I taught myself as much as I could. When I started working at cosmetic counters straight out of high school, I knew that this was something that’s going to be stuck with me forever. I’ve worked at MAC Cosmetics as a permanent artist til 2015. I’ve always freelanced, I’ve gotten the chance to work with Models and Celebrities for Fashion week, Runway, Media and Commercial. I specialize in Soft Glam looks for any occasion but I love to dabble into creative and editorial work as well. I offer luxury Bridal Makeup and created “Bridal Baes” a beauty team specifically for Bridal. I love being an Instructor/Makeup Artistry Educator. Teaching my techniques and spreading positivity through beauty means so much to me! I started a Youth Makeup and Mentorship program where I host makeup classes and teach young girls between the ages of 7-13 the power of makeup!
I am the Owner of JV Beauty Studio, my team and I genuinely love making others feel beautiful inside and out! I think the best feeling is when a client looks at herself after her makeup application and feels the most confident, the most beautiful, and all around sexy! We all deserve to feel our best all the time!
