Meet the passionate team behind our professional visagiste services
Founded in 2017, ParityExchange began with a simple but powerful vision: to provide exceptional makeup artistry that enhances natural beauty and creates confidence-boosting transformations.
What started as a solo venture by our founder, Sophie Bennett, has grown into a team of passionate, highly skilled visagistes who share a commitment to personalized service, technical excellence, and creating makeup looks that make our clients feel their absolute best.
Unlike traditional makeup services, we take a comprehensive approach to beauty. Our visagistes analyze facial structure, consider skin condition, and tailor techniques to each individual's unique features and requirements. This holistic approach ensures results that not only look stunning but feel authentic to each client.
With services ranging from bridal makeup to editorial work, personal consultations to corporate events, we've established ParityExchange as a trusted name in the beauty industry, recognized for our attention to detail and client-centered philosophy.
We believe in working with your unique features to enhance your natural beauty, not masking it. Our approach celebrates individuality and helps you look like the best version of yourself.
We're passionate about sharing our knowledge. Whether through formal lessons or during application, we aim to empower our clients with techniques and understanding they can use every day.
No two faces are alike, and no two makeup applications should be either. We take time to understand your preferences, lifestyle, and the occasion to create truly customized looks.
We use premium products that deliver exceptional results while being mindful of our environmental impact. Many of our chosen brands are cruelty-free and feature sustainable packaging.
