Maddie is not a rule follower. Inspired from the most talent make-up artists she
prefers to do not "colour within the lines" although, of course, she can do it, and
exceptionally well.
Maddie North can draw a graphic eye like a painter artist who passionately embraces colours, but she also know when a look has to be fresh and pure.
This is a real sign of talent, and Maddie have it.
We had a little chit-chat with her to find out something more…

Three words to describe your work and your signature look?
Well, my favs would be dewy, fresh and beauty!
When did you decide you wanted to be a make-up artist and do you
remember your first job?
I did a make-up course in New Zealand maybe 8 years ago? I really enjoyed it and
started doing music videos and press photos for my friends on the weekend! I
think my first job was my friends music video it was so fun being on set!
Which famous makeup artists have influenced you the most, and how?
I’ve always loved Pat McGrath and Lottie is really incredible too - both just so
creative.

Your works look fresh, minimal, modern and eye-catching - where did you
get inspiration from?
Thanks! Um… Fashion Week is always a fun inspiration, just scrolling through
Instagram, but mainly when I see someone’s face that’s what inspires me!
We read you have a lot of musician friends, do you usually like listening to music
when you work?
Ya, I love listening to music on set – makes the day more fun.

Born in New Zealand and now based in Los Angeles, which city inspires you
the most?
I would say probably LA just because the industry is way bigger. Models come
from all over the world to work in LA so I feel very fortunate I’m able to be here!
Plus every celeb lives in LA.
What is your favourite editorial you have ever done?
I did an editorial for Playboy in Acapulco it was incredible and the team were
just so lovely and fun! Basically felt like a vacation – ahahah.

What do you love most about makeup? We are sure you have so many
products to choose from, what is your never without?
Never without my “Boy Brow”! My fav product, also Tom Ford due contour
palette, I use it on almost every shoot.
The job in fashion is quite unique with ups and downs. What are your tools to keep
you balanced and confident?
I make a lot of jokes!! I’m a pretty positive and silly person on set, which
definitely helps.
