Edita Petrauskaite
Make Up & Brow Artist
Originally form Lithuania but living in Ireland for 15 years, make up and brows are now more than just a job for Edita – they are her passion.
Edita has always been a creative person – she has taken drama classes, enjoys singing, drawing and loves to cook. Yet, if you told her just a few years ago that she would train as a makeup artist she would not have believed you.
Her lightbulb moment was in 2017 when she booked a private session to learn some tips on doing her own make up with Carol Willis, a make-up artist from Sligo. Edita soon began to pursue makeup as a career, beginning with group trainings, then individual ones, growing and learning day by day.
Much of her training has been through the Greta Makeup Academy in Lithuania. She calls founder Greta, a multiple-award winner and author of two books, “an amazing and talented professional and a master of make up in my eyes and the eyes of so many.”
Over the last few number of years Edita has continued to up-skill to master her craft, achieving certification in
- Wow Brows & Henna Brows with Elite Academy Monaghan
- Lash Lift and Eyelash Extensions with Lash Right Ireland
- Henna Brows & Sexy Lashes in Lithuania
- 3D Brow Design in Lithuania
In 2018 she attended a 3 day masterclass in Day, Glam & Hollywood Makeup Looks in Majorca, Spain, and last year took a Lycon Facial and Body workshop with the Lycon waxing system.
She says every make up brand "has it’s own little something”, so while she doesn’t have a particular favourite she likes to work with quality products from Mac, NARS, Charlotte Tilbury, Anastasia Beverley Hills, Makeup Forever, Huda Beauty, Inglot, Tarte and more.
“This is not just a job to me…my clients give me so much joy. When I can transform someone’s look and watch how someone sees themselves after having professional makeup applied…Showing people the beauty that lies within each of us is my inspiration!” – Edita
