ABOUT
Meet CASSPER
From a young age, the mystical and fairytale worlds that she saw come to life through film enchanted her. She was captivated by seeing the creatures and characters from the stories she read as a child come to life. Creating that same magic for someone else through transformative makeup and character design is her passion.
Cassper moved to Austin Texas where she attended Paul Mitchell, completing the Esthetics program. She then went on to move to New York City where she attended the Makeup Designory, completing the Master’s program. It was during this intensive training that she designed makeup for a series of beauty and fashion photoshoots and designed a range of characters. She has worked on photography sets with a range of photographers and directors and has been recognized by multiple luxury brands. And has brought her whimsical style to life through her work.
Other work she has done includes working NYFW 2023 for 2 different shows and working with 3 designers for their private NYFW collection photoshoots. She is featured in VIGOUR Magazine April 2023 and May 2023 NYFA Exhibit for 2 different photographers. And she has more publications for the year of 2023 coming!
Mission Statement.
Makeup is an inclusive art form and should be embraced by anyone who wants to create or wear it. Editorial and SFX makeup is my true passion, but there is still love for all other forms of makeup for me. Putting my creative spin and twist on a design and bringing a vision to life is what keeps me running as an artist. Makeup can be whatever you want it to be, it can be an enhancer, a confidence booster, an outlet, a lifestyle, or even an escape. But for me makeup isn't just makeup, it's a passion.
