Rachael is also owner of a national online pro makeup store 'Makeup and Glow' with a shop front and makeup studio 1km north of the CBD in Kelvin Grove. Rachael uses products formulated for High-Definition which results in maintaining an immaculate appearance under the 6x magnification of high-definition cameras. This flawless picture resolution demands coverage from makeup that will work to conceal wrinkles, blemishes, acne and skin discoloration while giving a clean natural look to those in the spotlight. It is like a weightless second skin that is water proof, sweat proof and streak free.


Rachael is confident and well-presented, and highly regarded for her approachable and personable manner. When getting married a makeup rehearsal is recommended and is performed in her Studio. This is usually booked 4 - 6 wks prior to the wedding, but can be earlier by request. Please allow 1 to 1.5hrs for Rachael to discuss and perfect the style you want for your day.
