Make up is an art. Different looks different stories. Each masterpiece always a Happy experience. Each story unfold leads to the next. Melody Dela Cruz
Thank you for visiting Melody Dela Cruz Hair & Make Up Page. Enjoy her work, discoveries, shared tips and styles. Growing up, Melody have always adored her mom fix up and transform herself from natural to subtle or a more glamorous her before goin
g out to work or simply going out. Little did her mom knew that Melody has been trying on her make up palettes until she was caught. The kit became out of her reach. A resourceful child at an early age her amusement and love for make up did not stop her right there. She innovated her own make up kit. Brown crayons for the brows, red Bougainvillea flower petals for lips, cheeks and eyes and voila! she still gets the look she wanted. The passion grew stronger. It went putting make up on her face then to playmates, classmates, to colleagues then to the doctors she collaborated with at work, in short to everyone she'd love to share it with. Make up has given Melody so much joy and magic as she dealt with a lot of people. She experienced what power make up can offer. That inexplicable feeling and confidence it draws from within. During her life in the corporate world she'd always look forward to each morning to put on make up again and share it with others through the free hours of the day. Having worked in the pharmaceutical industry gave her opportunities to execute self learned skills on make up application for company parties, convention fellowship nights, competitions, launches, engagements, any and all occasions that would permit her to do it. Her make up kit has always come handy with her wherever she goes, locally and even in those Asia business trips. Friends and colleagues turned her as their personal consultant and artist whenever needed. As her bucket list was coming to a full she decided to professionalize her passion after early retirement from work. Melody earned her certifications in Basic Traditional Make Up Artistry, Advanced Make Up Artistry ( Photography, Artistic, TV, Theater Make Up ) at MP ( Maquillage Professionnel ) sponsored by the Louis Vuitton owned make up brand Make Up For Ever of Paris. Basic Airbrush Make Up at Kryolan Philippines and again Advanced Pro Airbrush Make Up at MP. Hair Upstyle at CAS ( Center for Aesthetic Sciences)
Her skill was recognized at school and she got offered apprenticeship to a list of projects that eventually made her a member of the MP Pro Team Make Up Artists up to the present. This is the team tasked to do exclusive projects and launches of the school under their brand flagships ( Make Up For Ever - 2012, Make Up Factory, Beyu, Anny - 2013 to present)
Her involvement with the MP Pro Team projects and her network events, Melody gained more techniques and familiarity with products that has helped cement her skills in subtle transformations helping women draw out the best version of their natural complexion and features.
