Inner Lux Beauty- Nicole Gonzales

Before and/or after I'm hired, I will consult with the client about the desired makeup style, date, time, and location for the event. The quote will also be discussed and confirmed. I will be available for further consultation as needed.

My career as a makeup artist began with a five-week internship on a film project, an experience that opened the door to a world I quickly fell in love with. That first opportunity led to two more film projects, where I had the chance to work alongside talented makeup artists, hairstylists, sound engineers, and other creative professionals.

Through those connections and the relationships I built on set, I was hired for several runway productions that same year. I soon realized that I wanted to explore as many avenues of the beauty industry as possible—not only to gain experience, but to continue developing a well-rounded skill set.

Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in bridal, commercial, editorial and photo shoots, special occasion makeup, runway, and some special effects makeup. I love that this work allows me to step into different creative environments, collaborate with a variety of people, and bring something unique to each project.

For me, makeup has always been about more than the finished look. It’s the creativity, the collaboration, and the experience of helping someone feel confident and completely themselves.
