Carmen Dianne Thomas was always “that” child, you know, that little girl who loved to try on her mother’s heels and play in her makeup. She has always been intrigued by makeup, even at a young age, and that passion has never left her. It stuck with her as a hobby and eventually evolved into her career.
While attending Old Dominion University for Business Administration and Marketing, Carmen volunteered to do the makeup for a school fashion show. It was at this show that she realized that she has the potential to be a professional makeup artist. Originally from Maryland by way of Petersburg VA, Carmen currently resides in Richmond, Virginia.
Carmen has accomplished a lot in just a few short years. After realizing makeup was more than just a hobby Carmen began to hone her skills by gaining experience working at MAC Cosmetics, Benefit Cosmetics, and Sephora USA, Inc.
Today Carmen Dianne is a professional freelance makeup artist experienced in everything from weddings and special occasions to film, print, and runway.
She has also worked with many notable clients including Sean “P. Diddy” Comb’s son, Justin Combs, politician Scott Rigell, in addition to having her work published nationally. She has even been recognized two years in a row by her Virginia community with a nomination for Makeup Artist of the Year at the Virginia Fashion Awards (2009 & 2010.) Carmen strongly believes in the importance of hard work, professionalism, and integrity. She strives hard to perfect her craft every day and is here to meet your makeup needs.
