鈥淭rust your instincts and intuition, follow your passion, go get what you want in life. Just do something new that is not comfortable鈥攕tep out do what you want!鈥

These are the best life lessons that internationally acclaimed makeup artist Heather Nightingale has learned in her more than 20-year career.

After studying art at Alberta University of the Arts and Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver, Heather transferred her art, skills and knowledge to enhancing the natural beauty of the human face, using skin as her canvas.

鈥淎 few years later, I elevated my performance of artistry by going to Paris to study with Dany Sanz鈥攖he world-renowned creator of the brand Make Up For Ever. This is when I bloomed!鈥

Asked what fires her up the most in her work, she says, 鈥淚 get fired up when I get to create and enhance the skin and meet the most incredible people. Nothing beats being an artist when your canvas is alive with energy and passion.鈥

When it comes to good style, Heather believes the most important aspect is understanding yourself.

鈥淲hat feels good? What excites you? What makes you feel vibrant and exuberant?鈥
