The artist
Savannah Muki
I started painting faces the way other people start keeping notebooks — as somewhere to put an idea before it disappeared. Halloween looks turned into editorial colour, colour turned into commissions, and the notebook became a kit.
My work lives between two poles: precise graphic colour that holds its edge under a camera, and soft glam that still looks like your own skin. Creative and character work is where the two meet — a full transformation that stays comfortable to wear for twelve hours.
I keep the chair calm. No rushing, no upselling, no product on your face that you haven't been told about. You leave knowing exactly what you're wearing and how to take it off.
Please note: I am not a licensed makeup artist. I work as an independent creative artist for personal, editorial, and event projects.
The Process
Four phases, start to finish.
New Moon
The consult
We talk about the occasion, the outfit, the light and what you want your face to say. Reference images welcome.
Waxing
The design
I sketch placement and colour, choose products for your skin and the wear time, and confirm the timeline.
Full Moon
The chair
The appointment itself — unhurried, comfortable, with mirrors turned away until it's finished if you like a reveal.
Waning
The send-off
Setting, photos in good light, and a small touch-up kit so the look holds until the night ends.
