Celebrity makeup artists Kristofer Buckle, Renée Loiz, and Courtney Hart have all made names for themselves in the beauty industry they have become known for their work with Hollywood's biggest stars and for entertainment's most notable events. Buckle is a go-to for celebrities like Jessica Chastain, Mariah Carey, and Blake Lively; Loiz for Quinta Brunson, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Cynthia Erivo; and Hart for Glenn Close, Kristen Bell, and Hilary Duff.
"I was always fascinated by the power of transformation using makeup," says Buckle of his introduction to the art form. As a teenager, the artist began publicly showcasing his talents by walking around with his face dramatically painted, which then led to him being offered opportunities to work at the opera and with pop stars of the time. "In the '90s, Steven Meisel had me do a cover and I've been working in fashion and with celebrities ever since. Working with such influential people makes what I do influential as well. Seeing the impact that my work has had on trends through the years, through the choices I make, is always validating because it's evidence that the looks resonate with the public."
Similarly, Loiz's interest in makeup grew when she was younger. "I had a family friend who did makeup for Prince in the '80s," she says. "I think that stuck with me subconsciously and influenced my love for fashion, hair, and makeup." From then on, Loiz educated herself on different cultures, skin tones, and trends, and went on to use her skills for commercial and editorial photoshoots, all while adding working with celebrities under her belt. "One of the most validating things is being able to do what makes me happy for a living. That, and cheering on other artists and helping them achieve their goals."
