The best makeup artists on Instagram

At some point, the routine will settle everywhere. When it comes to makeup, you get used to the same routine: concealer under the eyes, eyeshadow on the eyelids, some color on the lips. It’s a well-timed program that we do every day.
Courage to try something new every now and then adds variety to your beauty routine. Because there are so many makeup options! You can get the necessary inspiration directly from the professionals on Instagram.

Mona Leanne

She assisted legendary make-up artist Pat McGrath (51) for four years. Today, Mona Leanne herself is a big name. She is self-employed and has already worked with musicians like Anne-Marie (30) she. Leanne has also worked for designer Vivienne Westwood (80). The British make-up artist discovered her passion for makeup at an early age: As a child, she would spend all weekends trying out new looks for herself.

Pat McGrath

Anyone who deals with beauty on social media will eventually meet Pat McGrath. She is the mother of all makeup Instagrammers, so to speak, and cannot be left out of this list. Despite being a celebrity, she often supports smaller make-up artists and shares their posts.

When it comes to their own creations, “more is more”. So, if you love avant-garde runway looks and a lot of sparkle, pictures of the British makeup artist legend should not be missing from your feed.

Marcelo Gutierrez
