ABOUT DANI

HI, I’M DANI AND WELCOME TO DANI FROUDE MAKEUP!

I am a qualified Hair and Makeup Artist based in Auckland, with ten years experience in the industry.

I’ve always been drawn to a feminine aesthetic. An artist from a young age, I often found myself painting women with dramatised features, which naturally led to a love for makeup.

To turn my passion into a profession, I earned a qualification at The Makeup School in Auckland and subsequently went on to work at M.A.C Cosmetics for four years before launching my own freelance business. A creative in all areas, my career has since spanned the fashion, beauty and advertising industries, which has helped me hone an eye for detail and develop expertise in the editorial space. 

I love the transformative power of makeup – there is nothing more rewarding to me than a client who feels beautiful and confident after an appointment, and my philosophy is to always make you feel exactly like yourself, but on a really good day!

My approach to beauty is classic sophistication, polished techniques, and enduring allure. Think glowing skin, flawless blending, and soft hues enhancing your natural beauty.

If you have something special coming up, I would love to have a chat with you about your dream look. You can keep up with me at @danifroudemakeup or email me.

Dani did the most amazing make up for myself and my bridesmaids for my wedding day. I told her what I was after and she made the process a breeze. The make up looked natural and stayed on for hours! Would highly recommend Dani for your bridal make up.
