About Gabriela

A lifelong passion for makeup began in childhood, rooted in a fascination with beauty, color, and creativity. Over time, this passion naturally developed into painting, where a strong foundation in color theory, blending, detail, and artistic expression was built.

This artistic background later evolved into makeup artistry, where both worlds merged seamlessly. The understanding of tone, balance, and composition gained through painting has become the foundation for creating refined, harmonious, and flattering makeup looks tailored to each individual.

Born and raised in Curaçao, with a mixed heritage of Aruban and Curaçaoan roots, a vibrant Caribbean upbringing has played a significant role in shaping a deep appreciation for color, culture, and individuality. This influence continues to be reflected in the artistry and approach to beauty.

Professional training was completed at Art of Colors, a premium five-star makeup school in Amsterdam, where technical skills were refined and artistry was developed under expert guidance.

With 3 years of experience as a freelance makeup artist and hairstylist, work has spanned a wide range of clients and industries. Experience includes bridal, photoshoots, film, documentaries, commercial productions, and beauty workshops. Over 500 makeup applications have been completed, working across diverse skin tones, skin types, hair textures, and facial structures, resulting in a highly versatile and adaptable skill set.

A strong background in self-employment has further developed professionalism, client management, organization, and consistency in delivering high-quality results.

Fast-paced environments have strengthened the ability to work calmly and efficiently under pressure, while maintaining precision and attention to detail. This ensures a seamless experience and flawless execution, even within time-sensitive schedules.

The focus remains on creating an elevated, comfortable, and personalized experience for every client, with a commitment to enhancing natural beauty and confidence. Every look is approached with intention, artistry, and meticulous attention to detail.

From soft natural glam to high-end bridal transformations and on-set creative work, each client experience is delivered with elegance, precision, and dedication to excellence.

"I had such a wonderful experience with my makeup artist! She was incredibly sweet and truly listened to what I wanted. She paid attention to every detail, creating a luxurious experience — from applying a body lotion with a subtle shine to using a moisturizing lip balm. She really captured my personality in the makeup; even though I’m not someone who usually wears a lot of makeup, she created the perfect natural yet glamorous look. The first time I saw myself, I truly felt like a bride! She’s a true artist with the makeup brush. On top of that, she gave me a cute little kit for touch-ups during the day (which I barely needed because the makeup and hair held up beautifully the entire time). I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!"
