My name is Monika, I’m 23 years old and live in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania. Although I earned a degree in Spanish philology, I now know for sure I want to do makeup for a living.

I started my artistic makeup journey exactly one year ago and felt I had found myself. Makeup is my passion and when I'm working time just stands still. I live for the moments where I look in the mirror and see another person staring back. While the person is still me, it feels as if there's someone else standing there at the same time.

I find it overwhelming and euphoric that in a mere few hours I can transform into somebody else. I'm happy when I'm creating and I create when I'm happy. I hope this circle never ends.
