Based in Winter Park, Central Florida, but constantly traveling around the world.

At an early stage of her career, she explores the world of body painting, prosthetics, SFX at the World Bodypainting Festival in Austria.
Valentina loves to push creative boundaries so she moves and brings some Italian flavor to one of the most inspirational cities for art: London. Here she specializes in conventional and new techniques of make up, including airbrushing, and gets into the world of fashion and brides. London Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Weeks, MTV are just some of the names in her background of experiences.
London is a burst of opportunities and Valentina cannot prevent herself from extending her skills to Asian bridal make up and henna painting.
Later on, Valentina joins Bobbi Brown. The insuperable team of Bobbi Brown taught her the best techniques and provided the most amazing make up in order to refine and optimize her bridal make up skills. Not only that, she also learnt how to enhance a woman’s natural beauty to make her feel more powerful than ever.
Make up is art. To Valentina, Makeup is fun, challenge and commitment. There is nothing more fulfilling than professionally providing the result the client is looking for.

Please, do not hesitate to contact me for any inquiry.
