The founder of STF
I am Shabana T Flaherty, the owner and founder of STF Hair, Makeup & Beauty Service and STF Makeup & Beauty Therapy. I am deeply passionate about my work, as makeup, to me, is about harmonizing a look with an individual's personality. It involves enhancing the inherent beauty that already exists and fostering a confidence that may not have been fully realised.
My approach centers on inspiration, instilling confidence, and creating a fabulous appearance. By considering factors such as the client’s outfit, skin tone, hair color, and face shape, I strive to craft a personalized and perfected look. I view each face as a blank canvas, awaiting transformation through the application of color and contour.
My journey into the makeup industry began at the age of 17, rooted in my early experiences in fine arts. This path ultimately led me to recognize makeup as the ultimate fusion of fashion and art. Through my work with esteemed cosmetics brands such as MAC, Inglot, Chanel, Makeup Forever, Mary Kay, Estee Lauder, and others, I have honed a keen sense of creativity and a flair for crafting flawless, eye-catching looks.
Driven by my passion for makeup and an unwavering attention to detail, I uphold a signature standard of professionalism. This commitment enables me to offer a comprehensive range of services, including special occasion, photography, and television makeup. Beyond these offerings, STF Makeup Artistry also conducts makeup application seminars and tutorials for parties.
In addition to my dedication to makeup, I am also passionate about fashion and travel. These passions complement my commitment to staying abreast of the latest trends and techniques in the industry.
I look forward to the opportunity to bring my expertise and artistic vision to your next project.
Thank You
