<p>Perhaps, after all, beauty never has been discovered. I myself would say that it has merely been detected’,” Emmanuelle Geoffrey says quoting Oscar Wilde. The internationally-acclaimed beauty expert was in the capital to launch Christian Dior Parfums first boutique in India.<br /><br /></p>.<p>“I’ve been in the beauty industry for over 20 years. I started by playing with makeup as a teen and practicing on my friends. Makeup has always been my passion. I love making someone feel happy and when I see a client smile I feel happy.”<br /><br />Geoffrey, who is a graduate in Juvenile Criminology, started practicing her love of makeup artistry in the United States. Currently associated with the brand’s Pro team, she has traveled extensively to different continents such as Middle East, Asia, North Africa, and South Africa.<br /><br />“The best experiences I have had are the amount of different places I’ve visited and the different people I’ve met.”<br /><br />Having worked with clients from all walks of life, from oriental princesses looking for a glamourous style to women looking for the perfect red lipcolour, and even movie stars at the Cannes or Marrakech film festivals, Geoffrey has learned to adapt to different cultures, personalities and personal preferences of her clients. <br /><br />Sharing some tips with Metrolife, Geoffrey says, “A woman should always take her skin tone into consideration when choosing makeup and not use a foundation that is darker or too heavy.”<br /><br />She adds, “It is very important to have a good base and that comes with a great skincare routine. I always believe that true radiant and beautiful makeup starts with taking care of your bare skin first. Also, if you want to get voluminous eyelashes, instead of zig-zagging horizontally with your mascara brush, try zig-zagging vertically. You will get the product between the roots of the lashes and it will make your eyes pop.” <br /></p>
