Make Up Artist

Shelly Samia

You've heard this plot before. Girl hates school. Girl drops out. Girl takes a chance. Girl is happy. Well that's pretty much what happened to Shelly. She hated nursing school, secretly dropped out, acted on her passion for art, and is now a makeup artist living what she loves. Only three years in the game, she's already got a resume that reads like a who's who of the entertainment industry. She's worked on everyone from Valerie Harper to Earnest Borgnine, from Joy Bryant to Pusha T. She recently finished editorial spreads for Zooey Magazine and Wassakh Magazine, and now has her eye on the bigger prize: a bi-coastal work life between Los Angeles and New York City. Just don't give her peanuts on the plane ride. She's highly allergic.
