Desu Beauty

Choosing a makeup artist can feel like a leap of faith.

You see beautiful photos online, but the real question is: Will I actually look like that? Will I still look like me?

That’s something I hear all the time.

This beautiful client took a chance on me, and my goal wasn’t to transform her into someone else—it was to create the most confident, elevated version of her. Soft glam that photographs beautifully, lasts all day, and still feels like you when you look in the mirror.

The best compliment? She didn’t just book once. She’s already booked more appointments.

That’s exactly the kind of relationship I love building. I want to be the makeup artist you trust through every milestone—your interview, graduation, engagement, bridal trial, wedding day, maternity photos, baby shower, birthday, photoshoot, and every celebration in between.

If you’re looking for a Toronto makeup artist who specializes in soft glam makeup, natural glam, bridal makeup, graduation makeup, event makeup, photoshoot makeup, and long-lasting luxury makeup, I’d love to help you feel like the best version of yourself.

I don’t just apply makeup—I translate visions.

Whether you come to me with a full mood board, a single outfit, or just an occasion, my job is to create a look that feels authentically you while elevating your natural beauty.

My signature is makeup that never wears you. Instead, it reveals the most beautiful, confident version of yourself.

A graduation day glam that feels like 💅her💅—just elevated. ✨

Soft, radiant skin, polished eyes, and the perfect balance of glam for a day she’ll remember forever. Graduation is more than a ceremony; it’s the celebration of years of hard work, growth, and perseverance.

Congratulations to all the graduates stepping into their next chapter. 🎓🤍

If you’re looking for makeup that photographs beautifully, lasts all day, and still feels like you, I’d love to be part of your special day.

Your wedding makeup shouldn’t make you feel like someone else.

It should feel like the most confident, elevated version of you.

Soft, radiant skin. Eyes that stand out in photos. Makeup that lasts through happy tears, hugs, dancing, and every moment in between.

This is why I focus on enhancing your features, not covering them.

If you’re looking for a bridal makeup artist who values timeless beauty, personalized education, and a luxury experience from trial to wedding day, I’d love to be part of your journey.

My bride had a lot of specifics;

- she wanted bold eyes but for her eyes not to look too small
- she still wanted to see the eyeshadow despite her hooded eyes
- she wanted subtle blush
- she wanted a soft base that would last all day because she tends to get oily

It doesn’t matter what your request is, as a professional makeup artist I have all the makeup techniques you’ll need to perfect your look!

I still have a few weekends open for wedding season, secure your 2026 appointments now!

Soft glam eyes using the “The Coffee Shop” palette ☕🤎✨

1. Place a warm brown shade above the crease
2. Deepen the folds with a darker brown shade to create dimension
3. Add an even darker brown into the outer corner and slightly into the crease to create a soft wing
4. Apply a n**e shade to the center of the lid and blend the darker brown into the n**e
5. Add shimmer to the inner corner and lightly over the n**e shade
6. Apply a thin black liner extending outward to accentuate the wing
7. Smoke out the wing with a dark eyeshadow
8. Finish with black kohl liner in the waterline

She thought makeup wasn’t for her…

Behind the scenes of Born to Shine by Akilah Walcott ✨

There’s something powerful about seeing a vision come to life — from a thought, to a feeling, to a finished look that speaks before words do.

As a makeup artist, my role is simple: bring your vision to life in a way that feels elevated, aligned, and true to you. Beauty that translates on camera, but more importantly — confidence you can feel.

If you’ve ever had a look in your mind and needed the right artist to execute it with intention and precision, I’m your girl.

🎥 ✨Born to Shine✨ is now available on all streaming platforms.
