“There are no ugly women, only lazy women” is a phrase we hear every so often. We all have seen and felt the impact and wonders of makeup whether it is from a YouTube makeup artist or a television program on makeup and beauty. While no one can deny the magic of a good makeup artist, the power and effect is much more than skin-deep as it helps with the confidence and masks the insecurity or inferiority complex of many women (as you may know, women are never satisfied with themselves). If you ever need to feel special on an occasion, get ready to put on your glass heels, because Cynderella is here to help you.

Cynderella’s Words

“My makeup style can be very versatile, from natural to drama fashion style. But in general, I like very clean and natural Japanese makeup style and with some influence of Korean style makeup too. I like the saying that eyes are the windows to the soul. I have a slight tendency to keep eyes bright and lively. For hairstyling, I am very influenced by the western style. I like the very classic designs abit whimsically happy hairdos. I love braids, romantic messy updos and simple styles that’s simply timeless.

“I feel happy to see my clients happy, the joy that I get when I see the sparkle and happiness on their faces is indescribable. Some clients has dubbed Cynthia as an eye surgeon where she gives life back to many kinds of eyes. She has a keen interest to give back double eyelids to droppy and single eyelids clients and problematic eyes.” Cynthia shares.

Cynthia finds that it is challenging as she has 3 children and her current work is super packed. However, she hopes to continue pursuing her passion of dolling up people for as long as she is able to.
