30 Before & After Pics Of This Makeup Artist’s Clients That Shows The Power Of A Good Makeup Artist
Makeup has attracted Ulyana Starobinskaya since her childhood. So in 2008, she decided that enough was enough and made a conscious decision to turn her passion into a career.
After 12 years in the industry, Ulyana has become really confident in her ability. Now, the makeup wants all of her clients to look like Hollywood beauties, whether they're preparing for a wedding or just a casual photoshoot.
To show off her work, Ulyana posts before-and-after pictures of her clients, revealing the effect her makeup has on them.

"Even though I've already spent over a decade in the beauty industry, I am constantly in awe of how beautiful women are," Ulyana told Bored Panda.
"I just enhance their natural beauty."Ulyana considers a lot of things before she applies makeup on someone, including their physical features, clothes, character, and, of course, the type of event they will appear in.
However, no matter who she is working with, Starobinskaya said the most important thing for her is to see a client's eyes light up in appreciation of the job she has done.
"I like to work in many different settings; with models during photoshoots, with brides, as well as teach both regular women and up-and-coming professionals more nuanced things on makeup," Ulyana said, adding that she has multiple courses for everyone who shares her passion.
She's a beautiful woman but, honestly, I think this makeup ages her. A lighter lipstick and less blush would be better with the heavy eye makeup.
"Because of the many requests I've received on the Internet from my followers all over the world, I have also developed a comprehensive guide that covers the basics called Makeup For Myself so that every girl, no matter where she lives, could have the ability to learn things she can use in her everyday life."
Has she been in a fight. Look at her mouth. No normal make up artist would go near her mouth until that healed
Is it just the lighting in the picture/my computer screen or was their overall skin tone/color completely changed?
the eyeliner really changes the way the shape of her eyes looks!
She has too much blusher on and that lipstick is the wrong tone
I don't know why this upsets so many people. I feel like this article brings out the natural beauty in people, not covering it up like so many other articles that just use pounds of makeup. I personally like how most of the women look, with or without makeup. But makeup makes a lot of people confident, including myself. I think that people should be able to do what makes them confident without being judged.
I love that the same look isn't used over and over like some makeup artists do. The makeup is flattering and not over the top.
Wow! All of these people are beautiful with or without makeup! Makeup and artificial looks is not my thing and can't be bothered to wear makeup but the makeup artist is indeed very talented, and if you want to wear tons of makeup because it's your thing and it's fun do it!!!
This is a much better MUA showcase than the ones BP has been having. Some of these might have used some tape or airbrushing in the afters, but most of them are much more natural looking than the Kartrashian-inspired cake layered makeup showcases of previous ones. The women in the after pictures still look like the ones in the befores, sometimes even with bumps, wrinkles, and all! If BP's gonna peddle more MUA spotlights, can they at least be MUAs who do more work similar to this?
A lot of these "after" photos are also edited. Some even have fuzzy/cloudy filters on the photo which is apparent when you look at the background in some of these. Also how many articles do we need to see that shows people plastered with makeup to look "better"... I imagine it would give people self confidence issues when they can't re-create the same makeup skills at home on their own. The before photos show much more personality.
If the goal was to produce faces for Anime COSplay, then it has been met.
How many quarts of foundation does she start with? Most of these women have perfectly nice skin - there's no need to mess with that beyond a little concealer and some powder. I know it's an East European thing - I've spent time there and this is the style - but making attractive women look like either prostitutes or Barbie dolls seems quite dumb to me.
And then, in the evening you have to wash it all off and the same face is staring back at you from the mirror.
This is almost comparing apples and oranges. Some of the before pictures the person looks drugged. Most of the after pictures the hair has been done. And lastly: LIGHTING. Soft lighting can erase wrinkles ... if the before and after are not taken with the same lighting and the same hair-do.... then you are not fairly comparing the makeup work.
Go to bed with the prom queen, wake up with... well we'll just say stained pillows.
