Brands In My Professional Makeup Kit

By Joanna Koh

Many people ask me what brands I use in my professional makeup kit, and I’ve given up trying to remember while typing it out again and again and again over all the emails and repeating them over conversations, so I thought I’ll just do one blog post and have it give you a breakdown of them here
I do switch around my products, add in new ones and toss out old ones every month, so do check back here to see if anything’s changed (it probably will).

I travel with upwards of 12 kgs of makeup and hair products and tools daily, so don’t be too surprised when I show up with trolley bags packed with stuff! It’s how I stay prepared for any look we need to create.
