welcome!

My name is Hannah Dorion (she/her) and makeup is my passion. I grew up in the ballet studio which is where I had my first taste of makeup! From there my passion flourished and I’ve adored diving into all types of makeup ever since. Everything from beauty to special effects, I love tackling it all! Thank you for stopping by and please reach out with any inquiries.

I can’t wait to make your makeup dreams come true!
