For this episode of the How To Cut It podcast we are exploring the captivating world of curiosity, creativity, and collaboration with leading makeup artist designer, Lan Nguyen-Grealis.

Lan is a celebrity, beauty fashion, and multi-award-winning makeup designer. She is the author of “Art & Makeup” and “ProMakeup Design Books” and has made appearances as a guest judge on the successful BBC Series of Glow Up. Lan regularly collaborates on many shows at London Fashion Week, leading a team of exceptional makeup assistants whom she dedicates her time to mentor.

Lan’s journey is one of self-teaching, trial and error, and valuable experience. She understands the challenges of not having access to assisting early on, which led her to start her own education platform to find and mentor her own team of talented assistants.

Today we get Lan’s insights and experiences that offer valuable lessons in why we need to expand our creative horizons. From her fearless attitude driven by curiosity to her artistic approach to makeup, Lan’s journey holds inspiration and knowledge that can elevate your craft.

But that’s not all. In this episode, we also discuss the impact of social media on mental health, protecting your artistic identity from impersonators, and the importance of collaboration and giving credit to fellow artists.

We are also going to discover how collaboration between hairdressers and makeup artists can take creative projects such as photo shoots and shows to new heights.

So listen today to Lan’s incredible wisdom, experiences, and creative flair. Press play!
