Val Garland is a very well known make-up artist and works in London, England. However she originally grew up in Bristol and then went off to travel in Sydney, Australia. Whilst living there Val Garland qualified as a hair dresser and from then onwards it was when she realised her true passion for hair and make-up.
Garland moved back to London in 1994 and has been working here for over 20 years. She has worked on many different projects such as highly conceptual catwalk shows for Alexander McQueen and also done commercial celebrity shoots with Kate Moss. Garland has also collaborated publications including Visionaire, i-D, Dazed and Confused and Vogue.
Garlands great creations have now guided her to work with Bjork, Chloe Sevigny, John Galliano, Mario Testino and Nick Knight.

In the Val Garland: Amplified Realness video which I watched, I think the make-up which Val Garland created is amazing especially how she carefully created the look with freckles and made it look so realistic. It definitely fits in well with the Elizabethan era and I think it's a great idea how Val made it her own by adding in the freckles.
