Scrolling through your Instagram feed, as a beauty enthusiast, you probably follow all the big-time Make Up Artists’ from Malaysia like @NorianaTheFaceDesigner to even @Syedewa. They usually specialise in wedding looks and while there’s nothing wrong with looking ultra-refined, sometimes it’s refreshing to see the other side of IG makeup too. By this, we mean the unconventional MUAs.

But if you’ve been following JUICE, you’ll know that we love giving underrated artists recognition!
