Andra Hall

I’m Andra! But, you can call me “Andi”!

I have over ten years experience practicing make up in Fashion, Beauty, Bridal and more recently, in IMDb Set & Special Effects Makeup for TV shows.

My fascination with makeup began when I was a very young child; I would sit and watch my mother apply her makeup and I used to be in awe. She always looked so beautiful and I wanted to look just like her.

In 2010, I eventually got involved in modeling. As I learned the ins and outs of the industry, I also picked up on many makeup and beauty tricks. From photo shoots to runway shows, I was fortunate to usually have a beauty team dress my face.

Occasionally, in my modeling career, makeup artists might be a “no show” or ran late, and I would often be asked in these situations, to step up to do my own makeup and sometimes makeup for other models as well. I soon established a repertoire of reliable skills that became known to many in the industry, and of which I am sure, helped me to progress in the industry.

I loved knowing that others could easily rely on me, whether it was as a model or as a stand-in makeup artist. Either role I had, was taken seriously. I loved knowing I could apply my own makeup and makeup for others, in a professional manner that pleased the models, photographers, designers and directors.

To me, the makeup artists are some of the most important people in the industry. With the right makeup artists, it wouldn’t matter what ensemble was assigned for you to wear, because the makeup would make you feel unstoppable and empowered, no matter how much or how little makeup was actually applied.
