Live in: Paris, France - Works in: Onorina Jomir

Give us a little background on yourself.

Based in Paris, I provide beauty services to women from all over the world both in the fashion capital and all throughout France and Europe. My career jumpstarted thanks to a generous scholarship granted by The Powder Group in partnership with Make Up For Ever Academy, which gave me the opportunity to study makeup in Paris - a dream come true! Now, 8 years later, I have a successful bridal business and wonderful team of artists, and we are continuously expanding and growing. I love delivering timeless, elegant, and elevated beauty to all of my clients, and I would call my style "Naturally Glamorous". My beauty work has been featured on Vogue Weddings, Brides, and Style Me Pretty, and I've had the pleasure to take part in New York Bridal Fashion Week as well as work with one of Paris' leading bridal designers, Rime Arodaky - an achievement I'm very proud of!

What drew you to a career in makeup?

I love the transformative power of makeup and the impact it has on one's mood and self confidence.

What is your philosophy when it comes to makeup?

I believe that less is more when it comes to makeup, and I love working in thin layers and transparencies, allowing the individual's natural features to shine, and never overshadowing them. I love working with neutral and natural color palettes which harmonize with individuals' personal color palette, to achieve the most classic and elegant looks unique to each person I work with.

What do you think makes makeup so special in our world?

The countless possibilities, variety of available products, textures, colors, and the unlimited sources of inspiration.
