Eleni Tondi is a London-based professional make-up artist with experience working across editorial, beauty, commercial, and bridal/special occasion make-up.

Her lifelong love affair with make-up began when she was a little girl sneaking backstage at the fashion shows her mum used to stage in the nineties. This early glimpse of the excitement of backstage life and the transformation of the models grew into a fascination with beauty.

After following a more traditional academic route and working in corporate communications for over a decade, she decided to make a career change and work hard on realising her dream. She trained at the Academy of Freelance Make-Up in London in full professional artistry skills and polished her craft by assisting established artists.

Her philosophy is assessing the best qualities within a face and enhancing the best features. She loves to show women how to use make-up to look their best.

Using premium brands such as Chanel, Dior, Tom Ford, Laura Mercier, NARS, Make Up For Ever, and MAC, she can create anything from a natural look to a full-on glamour look.

She has worked with many beautiful brides making them feel at their very best on their big day. She prides herself on creating flawless skin, which looks great in real life and on camera.

When she’s not painting faces, she can be found wandering through London museums or testing out new colours and textures for her kit.
