Paul Corda Makeup

From a very young age, raised mostly by woman, I was mesmerised with what just a bit of lippy some powder and mascara could do to brighten a ladies face. This quickly turned into an obsession.
My Grandmother gave up buying colouring books, instead, asking the lady at the cosmetic counter for some blank face charts. I would spend hours with cheap makeup and sponge tips, colouring in face charts.
In my early teens I took those skills and transferred them to friends faces - budding into a makeup artist. As a young man in my early 20's I moved to Sydney, where my makeup career began with Napoleon Perdis, followed by some time with MAC.
My Grandmother adored Coco Chanel, having grown up in her era, So in memory of my Grandmother, I set my sights on representing CHANEL, moving back home to Melbourne to become the National Makeup Artist for CHANEL. After 5 years with the company I decided to branch out into more freelancing and high fashion work, which I have loved it ever since. I am still brand loyal to the 3 labels I represented, However I am always sourcing the latest and greatest available on the market.
