About MakeUp By Claire

Claire is a pro makeup artist that has trained with some of the most well-known Brands such as Charlotte Tilbury and Trinny London. 


From an early age Claire’s creativity drew her to makeup artistry. Her mam didn’t wear makeup so Claire had to resort to using snooker chalk for eye shadow and marker for eye liner. From a young age, Claire was obsessed with perfecting the perfect eye looks. Claire has a passion for teaching and is dedicated to making as many clients as possible look and feel amazing. 


Claire’s makeup career is about bringing out the inner beauty and loves to help every client she meets feel more confident and beautiful. After graduating from LA College of Creative Arts I assisted Laura Kinney who is a top tutor in Ireland's leading makeup school. She also worked for many years in the internationally renowned Brown Thomas Store. Claire got to work with so many amazing artists and all Charlotte Tilbury’s global back stage team. Claire also got to work alongside Vogue William’s makeup artist Ashley O’Rourke. They worked together on shoots, weddings and magazine covers. Claire has worked with in top salons across Dublin city such as Hessions, Oslo and The Space. 


Claire has given masterclasses for Trinny Woodall to her dedicated Trinny Tribe in Ireland teaching Trinny London’s infamous looks. Claire is delighted to be based in her very own studio in Glasnevin where she wants to use her pro makeup artistry experience for all her client’s needs. 


Claire Says - "I see beauty in all my clients without makeup but with the right makeup I love to see their confidence in this beauty grow."
