Makeup Artists
Hair and makeup artists drawing on Paris's beauty industry heritage and French period-film expertise.
France's position as the global capital of beauty and cosmetics gives its makeup artists access to an unmatched ecosystem of products, techniques, and training. From the elaborate period looks required for Versailles and Revolution-era productions to the natural French beauty aesthetic that defines contemporary Parisian cinema, French makeup artists bring a refined sensibility to every production.
Our network includes makeup artists and hair stylists working across features, prestige television, fashion content, and commercials throughout France. With access to Paris's SFX labs, wig-making ateliers, and the cosmetics expertise of the world's beauty capital, our teams support productions from La Cité du Cinéma to remote Provençal locations.

Hair & Makeup Expertise
What makeup services do you provide?
We provide complete makeup services across France — beauty, character transformation, prosthetics, SFX, and period looks. Our artists work on features at La Cité du Cinéma, fashion content in Paris, and location productions across Provence, Normandy, and the Côte d'Azur.
Do you provide hair styling as well?
Yes, we staff complete hair and makeup departments with access to Paris's wig-making ateliers and hair styling specialists. French hair stylists bring expertise in period hairstyles, from elaborate Versailles-era wigs to contemporary Parisian looks.
Can you handle period productions?
France is one of the world's top destinations for period production, and our artists specialize in French historical beauty — Versailles court makeup, Revolution-era styling, Belle Époque glamour, and 1960s Nouvelle Vague naturalism. We research using Cinémathèque and museum archives.
What about special effects makeup?
We coordinate with Paris's SFX makeup labs for prosthetic fabrication, creature effects, aging, and transformation work. France's skilled craftspeople deliver the same quality as London or LA SFX houses, often at competitive rates supported by the TRIP rebate.
How do you handle large cast productions?
For large-cast features and crowd scenes at locations like Versailles or Parisian boulevards, we deploy scaled departments with key artists, assistants, and background makeup teams. Our bilingual teams coordinate efficiently with international and French cast.
Do you provide makeup tests before production?
Yes, we arrange pre-production tests at studios in Paris or on location, developing and refining looks under camera conditions. For period productions, early testing with the costume department ensures cohesive character design across makeup, hair, and wardrobe.
