ANNIE OLIVEIRA, Founder
Meet Annie, the visionary behind Painted By Annie.
Since her early days, Annie's heart has been deeply entwined with the arts, a passion that ultimately guided her into the world of makeup artistry. Her journey commenced at the young age of 14, when she first grasped a makeup brush. It swiftly became evident that her ability to paint faces was more than just a pastime; it was a genuine source of joy. Determined to chase her dreams, Annie committed herself to perfecting her skills, enrolling at George Brown College for makeup artistry. As her mastery flourished, she harbored a desire to share her artistic flair and expertise with the world.
At the age of 24, Annie embarked on an entrepreneurial endeavor, opening her own beauty salon. Here, she bestowed exceptional makeup services upon a diverse clientele, ranging from brides on their momentous day to graduates seeking that flawless look. Witnessing the smiles and newfound confidence her artistry bestowed upon each client was incredibly rewarding. Yet, it was at 26 that she stumbled upon a fresh passion, one that would etch an enduring mark on her career - henna eyebrows.
Fuelled by her yearning to become a true master in her craft, Annie embarked on a transformative journey in 2022, travelling to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, to undergo an intensive eyebrow course led by some of the industry's top Artits. Learning from these seasoned professionals granted her invaluable insights into the latest trends, techniques, and innovations in the eyebrow universe. Today, brimming with wisdom and hands-on experience.
