Profile

Megan McDaniel is a freelance makeup artist based in southern California, with experience in film, fashion and print. Her clients span a diverse range, including clothing designers, celebrity chefs photographers and musicians.

She has always been drawn to the transformational power of makeup and the sheer creativity that is inherent in the interplay between light, texture and color when applying makeup.

Megan merges her passion for makeup and love of animals by maintaining a kit that is exclusively vegan and cruelty-free. She hopes to show the world—one face at a time—that vegan cosmetics aren’t synonymous with “granola” and that cruelty-free can be both, cutting edge and of professional quality.
