Albert Kurniawan Shares The Inspirations And Aspirations Of His Beauty Brand Teviant

Beauty brand Teviant may be new to our shores, but its founder, Albert Kurniawan, is by no means a novice to the industry. With more than a decade of experience, the Philippines-based Indonesian makeup artist is well known for his work with the region’s famous faces—among them, Filipina multi-hyphenate Heart Evangelista, Filipino-German model and Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach, Indonesian actress and singer “Princess” Syahrini and Filipino-American actress and Miss World 2013 Megan Young. Kurniawan shares more about the origins of his three-year-old brand and what it stands for.

ON THE BRAND’S NAME

Teviant is named after my mum, Tevianty, who is tenacious, detailed, colourful, strong, independent and fearless. She taught me to always challenge myself and to follow my passion. A Teviant woman is likewise strong, independent, fearless.

ON WHY HE STARTED TEVIANT

When I was younger, I observed the women in my house, and was amazed at how beautiful and confident they felt after putting on makeup. When I was growing up, I had the opportunity to be exposed to different cultures when I studied in Singapore at the LASALLE College of the Arts and discovered my talent for creating beautiful makeup looks for fashion shoots. When I turned professional, I had an amazing experience creating spontaneous makeovers on the streets of Italy and the videos went viral. I realised that I should embrace this calling and share my knowledge while continuing the joy of connecting with people by creating my own brand of products.

OH HIS MUSE
