I'm Ebonii (yes it's really spelt like that) and I’m a qualified freelance Makeup Artist based in Melbourne. From early 2027, I’ll be moving to Brisbane and will be expanding my services to Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and Northern Rivers, while continuing to service a select amount of Melbourne brides.
When I’m not glamming or washing makeup brushes, you’ll find me with an oat latte in one hand and a croissant almost in the other, walking along the beach with my husband and fur baby, Poppy, or spending quality time with family and friends over a delicious meal.
My journey into the world of beauty began when I completed my Diploma of Screen and Media (Specialist Makeup Services) in 2018. I fell in love with the craft, allowing my inner artist to flourish while meeting and connecting with new women every day.
Since then, I’ve been working as a freelance Makeup Artist and have never looked back. To think I was once about to study a double degree in Psychology and Criminology is wild (although I still find true crime podcasts morbidly fascinating!).
With years of experience behind me, I’ve built a career that I’m incredibly proud of. I’ve had the pleasure of glamming hundreds of brides and thousands of faces across Australia.
While my work initially spanned a range of event and special occasion makeup, over the past few years my focus has naturally shifted towards bridal. Being part of such a meaningful chapter in a woman’s life is something I feel incredibly honoured and privileged to do.Being a bridal makeup artist extends far beyond the makeup chair. It’s about the energy you bring to the morning and creating an environment where every bride and her bridal party feels comfortable, confident and completely at ease. I LOVE a good time as much as the next person, so I pride myself on creating a fun, positive atmosphere while connecting with the entire party. I often think of myself as an unofficial bridesmaid, there to lend a hand, share a laugh and make sure everyone feels considered and looked after.
My approach to makeup is all about enhancing natural features and creating a look that feels timeless, effortless and true to each client. I want you to feel like the best version of yourself, with makeup that photographs beautifully while still feeling like you.
What I adore most about this line of work is the incredible people I get to meet from all different cultures and walks of life, all whilst given them the gift of confidence and connection. What’s not to love?
