About Rachel
Rachel Pivetta, Makeup Artist & Hair Stylist
My journey as a makeup artist wasn't a straight path; it was filled with creative explorations, from creating clay works with my nanna at age 3, achieving a regional art award in my secondary years, becoming an interior designer, and then creating commissioned acrylic mixed-media artworks. Essentially, I picked up a paintbrush and never put it back down. I pivoted to people centric art in 2009 and discovered the transformative power of makeup and hairstyling.
My hair and makeup educational journey took me from the halls of the Napoleon Perdis Makeup Academy to the French Beauty Academy and to TAFE, earning diplomas and certificates that not only refined my skills but also qualified me to teach the next generation of artists. With over 16 years in the beauty industry, I’ve crafted looks for hundreds of weddings and mentored countless aspiring artists.
The Sunshine Coast is now my canvas, where I bring a mix of expertise and warmth to every project. Whether it’s a bride's special day or a commercial campaign, my goal is to make every client feel incredible and achieve the best possible result.
Makeup and hairstyling are more than my profession - they are my way of connecting with people, understanding their stories, and helping them shine in the best possible way.
