Jina Hudson-Grove

My passion for makeup goes skin deep. With over 15 years experience in the cosmetic and beauty industry, I love nothing more than educating and creating confidence with skin health and makeup.

  • Experience

    I started my journey into Makeup Artistry and Beauty Therapy fresh out of high school and graduated as a Beautician & Makeup Artist. Going on to work for cosmetic brands such, Shiseido, Lancôme and Estée Lauder - where my passion for all things skin and makeup flourished.

    More recently I have worked as a Artist at Mecca and a Skin & Laser Therapist at Fade, diving deeper into makeup and skin treatments from a new, more current perspective. Taking this fresh outlook into freelancing. 

  • Passion

    Makeup is my ultimate creative outlet and I have nurtured it throughout my life. Learning and pursuing more knowledge year after year.

    I'm grateful for the experiences I've had which have refined my skills and allowed me to do what I love.

    |

    I thrive off education and sharing my insights to build confidence in others. Every experience is an opportunity to grow. We can learn so much from each other.

  • Values

    From years of working with many different brands and products - as well as creating some of my own. I now choose to use brands which align with my values. 

    |

    I believe we are in day and age where animal testing is unnecessary and outdated. As well as the use of harmful ingredients.

    |

    There are an abundance of products available today, which respect these principles, without sacrificing quality or luxury. I am more than happy to share my recommendations of brands that align with these values.
