Hello there! My name is Layla and I am a certified makeup artist from the south suburbs of Chicago. I have been doing makeup since 2020 and have been credited by Makeup First School. I gather a lot of inspiration through fashion, music, movies, and nature. I am also heavily inspired by previous decades such as the 70s, 80s, & 90s. I enjoy taking the art that is already your face and elevating it to a masterpiece, whether it be a simple soft glam look, or a high fashion art piece.

In addition to creating art on the face, I am a musician and lead singer for a rock cover band. I am pursuing a degree in fashion promotion and merchandising as well as a styling certificate. I also work at a kid to preteen spa painting nails, applying makeup, and adding sparkle to birthdays.

I have experience in Chicago Fashion Week, runways, theater, and professional shoots. Please feel free to contact me with questions, comments, or to become my next canvas.
