Nicole Soares
Founder. Makeup artist. Teacher
Algarvia, natural from Portimão.
Makeup became a passion at the age of 14, when big eyeliners everyday to school was a thing.
Raised by pop culture, since the early days, that her dream was to do something for a living that made her vibrate.
After high school Nicole decided that makeup would be her path. She moved to Lisbon to acquire more knowledge and started an internship at RTP where she stayed during 3 years.
In the last year she started teaching at Creative Academy where she previously studied.
In 2018 she moved to London looking for new experiences in the makeup area, where she lived during 6 months.
She studied at Illamasqua School of Makeup Art and worked as a makeup artist at the only Fenty Beauty in London during that year.
Because her roots always spoke louder, she came back to the Algarve at the end of 2018 - with the intention of working for herself.
Now, where the sun shines almost everyday, Nicole is a freelance makeup artist specialized in bridal, editorial and teaching.
She believes she has an entrepreneurial spirit and that a good makeup artist is the one that listens to their client.
Enesse - Studio & School is created from the urge of wanting to share her techniques and perspective of what is being a makeup artist.
This is a multifunctional space where there's also photoshoots happening, combining Nicole's passions: makeup and photography.
