Home-Based & Micro Business Award: CREW FACED MAKEUP ARTISTRY
The Home-Based and Micro Business category is open to all businesses that are operating with between one and three full time or equivalent employees.
The City of Greater Geelong has proudly sponsored the GBEAs for 13 years, and is excited to be sponsoring the 2022 Home-Based & Micro Business category, in which the winner is Crew Faced Makeup Artistry.
Having won the Health and Wellbeing-Promoting Workplace Award in 2020 and the Home-Based and Micro Business Award in 2021, Crew Faced Makeup Artistry has shone through tough times over the past several years.
Operating from a customised professional studio in Lara, owner and director Jessica Anderson has been proudly servicing the Geelong region with her team since 2015.
Primarily providing makeup artistry and hairstyling services, Crew Faced Makeup Artistry also offers educational workshops and work experience to VCAL students, while Jess herself offers mentorship experiences to those wishing to enter or advance their careers in the industry.
“Crew Faced Makeup Artistry has continued to set a high standard for home-based businesses in the Geelong region,” the judges stated.
Specialising in makeup for brides and wedding parties, the business came to a stop due to COVID lockdowns, Jessica managed to keep her business going during COVID by constant contact with clients and her make up consultants through online makeup classes via Zoom.
“The judges were impressed with her persistence and it is no surprise Jessica has been successful in the 2022 Geelong Business Excellence Awards.”
