As a makeup artist, she specializes in bridal, runway, television and print. Some of her makeup work has landed in the pages of Flare magazine, WedLuxe.com, Ruffled Blog, Chick Advisor and Slice.ca. Joy has also worked backstage during LG Toronto Fashion Week, We Day 2010 in Toronto, The Junos and in the eTalk Lounge at the Toronto International Film Festival 2010. Her beauty expertise has also led her to be a beauty media spokesperson working with different brands and has been quoted in The Globe & Mail, 24 Hours Toronto and other media platforms.

When she’s not working, Joy likes to spend time with her three favourite boys: husband and her two sons.
Now that all the formalities are out of the way, lets gab makeup! I've been obsessed with makeup from as far back as I can remember. From using crayons as lipsticks to carrying my mom's makeup in my purse as a kid, makeup was always on the brain. Thankfully, this obsession has turned into a job I love! I can seriously sit for hours testing brushes, swatching and trying on colours, and creating shade combos.
There are two things I love about doing makeup: (1) transforming a woman's outer appearance to be a better version of herself and (2) transforming how she feels about herself on the inside. When a woman feels fabulous on the outside and on the inside, then I know I've done my job well.
So let's play with some makeup, chat about your beauty woes or life in general, and look glam! I'd love to meet you!
