Jess Clift is a Gold Coast–based makeup artist, former fashion designer and educator, with a lifelong connection to creativity, fashion and beauty. Raised in Forster, NSW, Jess was drawn early to aesthetics shaped by nature — sun, water and healthy, glowing skin — influences that continue to inform her work today.

Her approach to makeup is skin-first and considered, focusing on balance, refinement and enhancing natural features. Jess believes a flawless makeup look begins with the canvas, allowing the skin to look radiant, effortless and lived-in rather than overworked.

With a calm presence and thoughtful application, Jess brings a personalised and grounded experience to each client, whether working on bridal or event makeup. Her work is guided by the belief that makeup should reveal you — not conceal you.

Jess is based on the Gold Coast, Queensland, and is available for bookings Australia-wide.
