With half a million followers on Instagram and a client roster featuring names such as Zoe Kravitz, Greta Lee and Mia Goth, Nina Park is the cool girl of makeup right now. New York-based and Chicago-raised, Park studied makeup at L'École de Maquillage Fleurimon in Paris and has since worked on editorials for the world's most esteemed fashion magazines, as well as campaigns with brands including Chanel and YSL.
It's easy to see why she's so sought after, even in an industry that is famously oversaturated with undeniably talented beauty professionals. Noting that she draws inspiration "from the natural structures and shadows of the face," and that her goal is to enhance features rather than concealing them, Park has a unique ability to make classic looks (think: red lips and dewy skin, or smokey eyeshadow and nude lipstick) feel fresh and new again. Her makeup is always leaning towards the more 'natural' side, working with clients to achieve a bespoke look for each, and prioritising glossy skin, unexpected yet subtle pops of colour, and neutral hues.
