Candace Christen

I am a professional free-lance makeup artist living in Los Angeles, California. (I am also currently hired at M.A.C. as a free-lance artist as well). I am looking for work in the editorial and the film industry (hoping to break into the make-up union soon, or by next year).

I can drive myself to jobs if it is within a reasonable distance(a few hours) and will travel wherever I am needed just as long as my transportation is covered, or there is something else worked out with the model/photographer/director or producer.

Unfortunately I only do very selective TFP shoots, but please contact me for my rates. I am reasonable and am willing to negotiate. Thanks for your time in reading this and interest.

Info on my schooling/training**
    To let you know here's a little bit of my background: I went to the Aveda Institute in Minneapolis, Minnesota and took Cosmetology. Graduated and went back for more extensive learning and classes in Esthiology (Facials, waxing etc). After I finished there, I attended Joe Blasco's Make-up center in Orlando Florida. Also Took character classes (refresher course for myself) at MUD (Make-Up Designory), in Burbank, CA. Also Went to another make-up school called MKC, in L.A. Which specializes in beauty, and minority make-up, hair styling and wardrobe, in the print field.
     I have also taken airbrush classes. (at MUD and through Marvaldi hair and make-up studio) I am VERY well rounded in pretty much everything to do with make-up, and even things like wardrobe. I am willing to travel, and very much want to work so let me know.. Looking to keep busy. Any questions PLEASE ask. A new website is in the works, as of right now.To view any of my FX work or more of my beauty pictures in the mean time please go to this address: URL:myspace.com/4beautifulmistake.
