If you’re a hairstylist, makeup artist, or content creator, you know that good lighting is almost never available for when you need to see your work. Have you been to a hotel to do a client’s makeup and hair and only had a lamp to work with? Have you ever tried to do your makeup and hair with just a ring light, or in a hotel bathroom? Ring lights are NOT flattering for me, and uneven daylight can be super frustrating.

Before I was a hairstylist, I was a makeup artist, and I have been using The Makeup Light for almost 10 years. I used it to light my clients, film content, and to do hair.

But it sat in its box for years before I pulled it out for my YouTube videos, when my softboxes weren’t giving me the bright look I needed.

Once I turned it on I realized there is truly no other light that even comes close. The Makeup Light mimics daylight in the best way possible.

It lights up the face and your working space evenly and softly, at the perfect temperature to give you accurate results.

I have only one panel, and there are many other panels available for you to choose from.

I trust The Makeup Light because it was created by makeup artist Vivian Baker, an Academy Award winner, and her husband Michael Astalos. When she struggled to find great lighting for her work in trailers with famous actors, her husband created this light, perfected the technology and eventually made it available for working makeup artists.
