Canvas Rebel Interview | Celebrity Stylist and Makeup Artist

Canvas Rebel Interview | Celebrity Stylist and Makeup Artist

As a celebrity stylist and makeup artist in Los Angeles, I had the luck of getting interviewed by Canvas Rebel

About Canvas Rebel: Their mission is to create a space for artists, creatives and entrepreneurs to be able to learn from their peers through the magic and power of storytelling.  Their love of the storytelling format comes from our founding of VoyageLA almost a decade ago, where they ask folks to share the story of their lives and how they got to where they are today. They’ve been fortunate to expand across dozens of cities nationwide. Through their conversations with thousands of small business owners, artists and creatives they noticed that there was a need for even more storytelling – stories about their business or career that we might share at dinner or over coffee, but that wouldn’t necessarily make it into their memoir at the end of their lives; stories that illustrate the nitty-gritty details of what it takes to be successful day to day, how to build and grow a client base, recruit, train and manage a team or generate a living from your art.

From the interview:

” Luca , appreciate you joining us today. Do you manage your own social media?

I manage my own social media and I have actually been able to help other companies manage their social media channels as well with the skills I have acquired from my own career.

In the past 10 years as a celebrity stylist and makeup artist, I’ve had the privilege to work with many different clients and brands to shape their brand identities. I feel it is very important to have a social media presence nowadays because when a new customer comes to your social media channels they immediately see your work, your style, what you are selling and if it appeals to them or not. ”

Traveling hair and makeup artist | Marriott | Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown

As a traveling hair and makeup artist , I mostly work on TV commercials,  branded videos, fashion shoots, events and photo shoots around the world. Recently I had the luck of working on the Travel By Design unique storytelling series.

About Marriott: Marriott Hotels & Resorts is Marriott International’s brand of full-service hotels and resorts based in Bethesda, Maryland. As of June 30, 2020, there were 582 hotels and resorts with 205,053 rooms operating under the brand, in addition to 160 hotels with 47,765 rooms planned for development.

Designer Sherry Kobashigawa’s career began in set design, which explains her drive to encorporate storytelling into the elements of her creative process.

Kobashigawa joined the team at Le Méridien Salt Lake City Downtown after construction was already underway. Nevertheless, she got to work and designed the hotel, including Parisien and Mid-century influences that meet at the intersection of the story, the landscape and the building itself.

Inspired by the mountains and the setting of Salt Lake City, Kobashigawa drew upon the grid system the city was built on to inspire the art and textiles to bring it all together. “We wanted to tie in this notion of found items as well as the element of travel.” It was the spirit of the golden age of travel that brought the story to life in a way that helped everything fall into place.

Irresistible Me Collaboration | Celebrity Hair Extensions

Irresistible Me Collaboration | Celebrity Hair Extensions

Recently, I had the luck of collaborating with a celebrity hair extensions brand called Irresistible Me. I love creating beautiful looks and for that Irresistible Me luxury products are a huge support at my work.

About Irresistible MeThey are the first hair extension brand to offer a wide range of hair textures, colors and lengths because we value inclusivity. They launched in 2012, in New York to sell hair extensions, as they saw a big opportunity to simplify hair products. They make playful, easy to use and to shop quality hair products for everybody. Their products help you achieve just irresistible hair, stress-free, risk-free and zero damage transformation always.

The reasons why I love the clip in hair extensions:
  • I can add length and volume in seconds to my clients.
  • Irresistible Me clip-in hair extensions are made with high quality 100% remy human hair. I can dye and style them with hot tools just like my client’s own hair
  • Irresistible Me hair color technology is multi-toned so it blends naturally and seamlessly with my client’s own hair shade. Every set comes with 1 tester piece and your purchase is color match guarantee.

Also I would recommend following these tips on how to take care of your hair extensions:

  1. Brush often. I recommend brushing your hair twice a day as a minimum. Brush your hair extensions in the morning and before bed every night to detangle anything you’ve built up during the day. It’s also a good idea to brush your hair if you feel it becoming tangled at any point during the day.
  2. Limit how often you wash your hair. My recommendation is to wash your hair twice a week when you have extensions.
  3. Hair products matter. Condition the ends with hair oil if needed and always use a heat protectant before styling.

I had an amazing time collaborating with Irresistible Me as a celebrity hair stylist in Los Angeles and hope to create a lasting business relationship with them for the future.

Recently, I got a chance to work on a Stella Rosa wine commercial shoot in Los Angeles, CA. We shot this commercial during 1 day in a beautiful house location. We had 8 talents in total and we captured 4 commercial spots. I created camera ready/ natural beauty hair and makeup looks for everyone.

About Stella Rosa: Born through a rich legacy, Stella Rosa remains at the forefront of innovation. Stella Rosa is not just about producing award-winning semi-sweet, semi-sparkling Italian wines, it’s about evolving with the spirit of the times when it comes to wine trends and popular culture.

For some time, the wine industry reigned as one of Southern California’s most economically significant and popular industries of that time.

I got hired by Stept Studios, Stept is an award-winning creative and production studio known for work that feels more line entertainment than advertising. They partner with brands, agencies, and platforms to create campaigns, commercials, and branded content with authenticity at its core.

Recently, I got a chance to collaborate with Saint Jane Beauty, the award-winning, luxury skincare made with beautiful florals and modern, science-backed actives to calm skin stress, soothe irritation and detoxify pores.

About Saint Jane Beauty: Inspired by their namesake SAINT JANE, a bold and determined feminist-before-her-time from the 1500s, Jane De Chantal dedicated her life to healing ​people who were shunned by society – the sick, elderly, and unwed mothers. Supporting organizations that foster change, inspire hope and call for equality and inclusivity has been their mission since they launched in January 2019. They’re passionate about organizations they believe are changing the world, one person at a time.

I received their Saint Jane x Favorite Daughter Luxury Lip Oil Duo, and it is soon to become my favorite lip look. The all-natural lip oils are a blend of eight simple ingredients–including Vitamin C, Camomile and Aloe–for a nutrient-rich, never-sticky, soft shine. The gift set (with the prettiest packaging) includes our long-wearing Calm & Chaos shades–a subtle, sheer nude and a deeper tone for day-to night shine. Wear alone, layer over another lip color, and apply at bedtime to nourish and hydrate that perfect pout.

The brand’s PR agency is Sunny Communications, they do a bit of it all in beauty, lifestyle, entertainment and beyond! Los Angeles based – globally focused agency.
