7 July 2026•382 views
Expires in 15 days
Location: Shoreditch, London
Type: Freelance / Casual Roster (weekend availability preferred)
Vanity Studios is a premier, high-volume portrait house right in the pulsing heart of Shoreditch. We create stunning, high-end photographic art.
We are expanding our elite freelance roster with fresh, talented Junior Makeup Artists. If you are newly qualified and want to bypass the corporate grind, escape inconsistent editorial test shoots, and rapidly build an outstanding photographic portfolio, your canvas is waiting.
The Daily Canvas (What You'll Do)
Our studio floor is electric and fast. You will be working at the front line of our creative experience:
- High-Exposure Client Care: You aren't just applying pigment; you are managing the energy in the room. You will guide a high volume of diverse clients through an intensive, high-exposure studio day, keeping them relaxed, confident, and hyped for the lens.
- Camera-Ready Artistry: Deliver flawless, high-definition beauty applications mapped out specifically for our high-end studio lighting and camera parameters. No filters or Facetune—just clean, sharp execution.
- The Studio Blitz (Pace & Precision): Can you create magic under pressure? You'll navigate back-to-back, tight studio time slots with absolute precision, keeping your cool and maintaining a premium level of client care when the countdown is on.
Who Are We Looking For
Because our environment runs at maximum velocity, we keep our baseline standards exceptionally high:
- The Credentials: You hold a recognized professional makeup qualification (NVQ Level 2/3, VTCT, ITEC, or equivalent). Note: While we love our self-taught community, our high-volume studio parameters mean self-taught applicants cannot be considered for this specific role.
- The Palette: Absolute confidence executing color-matching and camera-ready looks across all skin types, tones, and ages.
- The Mindset: Punctual, reliable, and possessing a vibrant personal style that reflects our Shoreditch home.
- Logistics: Ready to rock weekend & weekday shifts with a straightforward commute to our Shoreditch space.
Trade Test
We don't just hire based on a piece of paper. If your profile catches our eye, we’ll invite you in for a quick chat followed by a live, practical technical and client-care trial right on our studio floor. This is your chance to show us your speed, your artistry, and your client rapport in action.
