Jessica M. Andrews: A Journey of Passion, Perseverance, and Empowerment

Welcome to J’s Makeup Artistry, where beauty isn't just about makeup—it's about you. I am Jessica M. Andrews, a dedicated and passionate Makeup Artist, Esthetician, Beauty Educator, and proud owner of J’s Makeup Artistry. My love for makeup began at the tender age of 14, when I was a dancer in my hometown church. This early exposure to stage makeup ignited a lifelong passion that has driven me to perfect my craft and share it with others.

My Mission

Education is my passion. I want every student and client to know they can accomplish anything they put their mind to. My mission is to empower, uplift, and build self-esteem through makeup artistry. I believe in embracing inner beauty, and my motto is a gentle reminder that, “Beauty isn’t Makeup, Beauty is You.”

My expertise

My expertise spans across several makeup styles, including High Fashion Runway, Avant Garde, Print & Special FX, Bridal, and Theatre makeup. I have had the honor of working in prestigious fashion events such as New York Fashion Week, Kansas City Fashion Week, and Omaha Fashion Week. As the Director of the Glam Team for Heartland International Fashion Week, I oversee hair and makeup artists to ensure they align with the event's theme and maintain the highest quality standards.

My Vision

Looking ahead, I plan to create an app that provides clients with access to beauty tutorials, tips, and tricks. This app will also offer subscriptions to an exclusive beauty insider circle. Additionally, clients can sign up for subscription boxes of our luxury product line, delivered every quarter.

My Commitment

At J’s Makeup Artistry, I provide personalized, one-on-one comprehensive education and high-quality makeup products tailored to each individual’s diverse skin type. My clients not only leave with a flawless makeup application but also with a newfound sense of empowerment and the knowledge to recreate the look on their own.

Thank you for being a part of my journey. Your support and trust inspire me to continue pushing the boundaries of beauty and education. Let’s embrace our unique beauty together.
