Samuel Ropers
A self-taught makeup artist who loves to use makeup to enhance natural beauty and express his creativity by also working with Special FX makeup, Samuel is a Pisces with a Leo rising and self-professed dreamer filled with confidence.
Samuel’s love story with NUDESTIX began in 2019 when he first started his career in the cosmetics industry while working at Sephora in Montreal, Canada. Demonstrating the NUDESTIX natural, nude shades to his customers with the quick and easy application, not only made his customers happy but also boosted their confidence.
“I like to create looks that make people ask themselves if it’s actually makeup or simply reality.”
With so many ways to approach makeup, Samuel loves to teach his audience how to create looks especially suited for them. His inspiration comes from many places, but mostly from his imagination. Samuel has a passion for the occult and astrology which fuels his imagination when creating his fantasy makeup looks.
Favorite NUDESTIX Technique:
Contouring. Try underpainting with NUDESCREEN DAILY MINERAL VEIL SPF30 in shade ‘HOT’ then applying foundation over top for a subtle face sculpting.
