Alys Desesquelles

My name is Alys Desesquelles, I am a professional makeup artist based in Paris. I specialize in fashion and editorial makeup, as well as more glamorous and event-oriented beauty looks.

Passionate about the world of fashion and luxury, I have built my career in communication, event management, and branding, which has allowed me to develop a comprehensive approach to creative work, visual storytelling, and client relations.

Today, I work as a freelancer with photographers, designers, and brands on photoshoots, editorial projects, campaigns, and events, paying close attention to detail and enhancing every face.

I also work on film and TV set projects, which has allowed me to develop a true understanding of the specificities of these formats: mastery of shine under lights, working with facial contours, correcting textures, makeup longevity, and adapting to the technical constraints of filming.

I trained at the Conservatoire du Maquillage, a school recognized in the professional makeup industry, where I acquired a solid mastery of beauty, fashion, artistic, and on-set makeup techniques. I also hold a Master's degree in Fashion and Luxury Management from LISAA, which has allowed me to develop a strong sensitivity to creative universes, brands, and the demands of the premium sector.

With over 8 years of experience in 360° communication (press relations, influencer marketing, event management, digital, and brand strategy) working for clients, particularly in the hairdressing, personal shopping, and luxury hospitality sectors, as well as in event agencies, I now offer a hybrid profile combining makeup expertise, visual culture, and an understanding of brand challenges.
