Having worked for some of the worlds greatest designers and photographers and alongside the most iconic Makeup Artists, he is full to the brim with tips, tricks, hacks and inspiration making him the go to artist for creative thinking.
Being labelled as ‘A must to follow’ by various online and printed publications, Dominic’s Instagram feed has been the go to destination for all his MUA related work. “I wanted to show people the incredibly wide variety of work you do as a MAC Global Senior Artist. From the backstages of New York or Paris to the front rows of London’s West End. Each day is different and each day brings new inspiration. With Instagram I found a way to let people in and join me on the ride.
One of the greatest aspects of his work is getting the chance to engage with and mentoring new talent. “It’s the new generation of makeup artists that will be pushing those boundaries and raising that bar and as part of the established group of working makeup artists it is our responsibility to nurture and develop that new talent pool.”. So getting the opportunity to work on a TV show such as BBC Threes Glow Up was a dream come true. “Not only am I able to help develop skills and give constructive feedback to a group of inspiring new artists, Glow Up also lets me show the world all the incredible paths that being a makeup artist can take you. It’s shone a torch on the beauty world and shown it as a credible career.”
Growing up, life as an artist was always his goal. “I always wanted to be an artist living in Paris in a cold and lofty apartment, victimised by the weather, that was always the plan. However, the poetic vision would never hold up against the cold hard reality.” He went to art school and got into photography but he became obsessed “with the idea of makeup as an addition to the image rather than something separate.”
As for his trademark curlicue moustache, it’s kept in place with sheer will and un-discouraged faith, plus a little hair product combed through with a disposable mascara wand.
