A make-up artist who stacked shelves in a high-street store to 'make ends meet' now rakes in six-figures with a global makeup brand that the A-listers love. Sean Maloney, 29, who is originally from Blackpool, was scraping together change and couldn't even afford a train ticket before making the bold business move.
The talented makeup artist and online influencer, who shares his snaps with more than 100,000 followers, first realised his love for make-up when working at the No.7 counter in Boots in Manchester, working tirelessly to start out on his own - with reality star Khloe Kardashian and singer Fleur East among the stars who have been pictured wearing his lashes.
The businessman studied journalism at university, but fell into the make-up industry by accident when working at the No.7 counter in Manchester. He then began working for MAC cosmetics around a decade ago and started doing peoples' make-up semi-professionally on the side.
