Celebrities such as Beyoncé, Lizzo, Naomi Campbell, Lori Harvey, and Justine Skye all have one thing in common — some makeup artists they work with are members of the LGBTQIA+ community!
Whether you want a light touch, full glam, or the famous “no makeup” look, these queer makeup artists have just what you need. As inclusivity begins to embark on new journeys for brands, they also pave the way for many LGBTQIA+ celebrity makeup artists. Patrick Ta and Sir John are some of the few names who have created space in the beauty world.
