The makeup guru grew up in Calgary and developed a refined hand through painting and sketching. After he graduated high school, Hung developed an interest in the beauty industry and moved to New York City in 2006, capturing the attention of many fashion photographers. In a recent interview with Beautycon LA, Hung expressed what motivated him to switch his career and become a makeup artist, “The reaction of people after you do their makeup. For someone to last this long in the business is really because how you make people feel and it motivates you to go to work every day.” Hung’s work is best known for his statement eye shadows and well-sketched complexions, “I love the western beauty with an Asian perspective. I always make the eyes with a little twist of the Asian eye and always beautiful skin and play of colors. That’s really my aesthetic,” he added.
