The beauty guru has stunned followers with her vibrant, creative looks for a number of years. In 2018, her first collaboration with BPerfect Cosmetics for the Carnival Palette took the makeup artistry world by storm, becoming a staple in both the kits of makeup artists and makeup lovers alike. The palette bagged her the 2019 Stellar Beauty Heroes Best Eyeshadow Palette award due to the incredible quality and popularity of the product, as well as a few hundred thousand more followers to boot!

Amongst the crowd, our students anxiously awaited their moment to chat to the artist – from 10-year-old makeup enthusiasts to budding pro MUAs, the atmosphere was that of meeting a celebrity for the first time.

Stacey Marie sat at the back of the store, surrounded by balloons and neon lights in an oversized white hoodie – a choice she loudly exclaimed was a bad idea due to the smears of foundation from hugging her fans. With her hair scraped back into a sleek bun with minimal makeup, far from the usual rainbow-faced looks seen on her Instagram, she looked effortlessly glamorous and was just as giddy to meet her supporters as they were.
