ABOUT ME

I am Lucy Colbourne, a Makeup Artist from Bournemouth who specialises in Avant- Guarde editorial which pushes the boundaries of editorial by taking influence from all types of media. I believe that makeup is all about exploring uniqueness and to make conversation starters as makeup is an art form with no limits. I love to take a horror/ fantasy style creative vision towards makeup and am more passionate towards the alternative side of the fashion industry with it heavily influencing my personal style as well as my work.

Vintage horror, museums, gothic literature and the macabre are some of my own interests that affect my work and style as I take a lot of inspiration from everything around me to create my final ideas. I love creating art from paintings to sketches as art connects through makeup and helped me bring my ideas to life. The gothic subgenere is something that inspires my everyday life including my work and influences a majority of my creative direction in projects.
