Jina Hudson-Grove

My passion for makeup goes skin deep. With over 15 years experience in the cosmetic and beauty industry, I love creating confidence by elevating natural beauty with makeup.

  • Experience

    After qualifying as a Beautician and Makeup Artist, I spent my early career with Shiseido, Lancôme, and Estée Lauder. My more recent experience at MECCA and Fade Skin Laser Lab integrated a results-driven, more current perspective into my work. My freelance studio now focuses on a balance of fresh aesthetics, integrity and refined artistry, specializing in makeup, brows, and lashes.

  • 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

    My approach is centered on helping clients look and feel their best while staying true to who they are.

    I believe beauty should be about feeling like yourself, only more confident. My kit is curated with brands that align with my values: specifically, those that are cruelty-free and formulated without harmful ingredients. I’m a firm believer that you don't have to sacrifice luxury or performance to choose products that are ethical and safe for your skin.

    I’m always happy to share my favorites that deliver professional results without compromise.
