I’m Kristi Nicole, a 34-year-old San Diego native. I have three beautiful children and consider motherhood to be my greatest ministry. I am a positive influence in my community; spreading love and encouragement to all I can. I have always had a passion and love for makeup artistry since I was a child. When I was young, I would sneak her mom's makeup and through practice and play, I was able to learn how to apply lipstick with ease and precision. I discovered my love for art over the years as I practiced dance and ballet. With each dance recital and performance, I was introduced to more and more makeup techniques and skills and by the end of my dance years, I recognized my love and appreciation for makeup.

I am a firm believer that beauty is from within and I make it my goal to help women show their inner beauty. After graduating high school, I knew exactly what path I was meant to follow, my true passion, makeup. I have been in the makeup industry for a little over 14 years now, a large chunk of which I worked at Mac cosmetics. I have worked at large industry events, teaching multiple classes, working events in LA, and working at the top Mac store in San Diego. Although I loved my job at Mac, I knew I was ready to move on and pursue my dreams. I am now a full-time freelance makeup artist and have been for 5 years. I specialize in bridal makeup, photoshoots, and special occasion makeup.
