Start following These 17 Beauty Artists on Instagram ...

Beauty artists really are artists. Photographs or paintings of the looks they perfect on themselves and scores of other beautiful people could easily hang in galleries and museums. These beauty artists, however, put their masterpieces on Instagram, so we can all see, admire, and perhaps even learn for free! Maybe it's because I suck at putting on makeup, but I love seeing what talented people can do. Here are the artists who routinely make me lose track of time as I scroll through my Insta feed. Feast your eyes on what they can do – because the world can always use a little more beauty, after all.

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

NICK BAROSE

Follow here: @dilokritbarose

Nick Barose does not want to answer your questions about contouring. I love him because he's outspoken about the things he doesn't agree with in the makeup, beauty, and fashion industries, plus he gets to touch Amy Poehler's precious face.

I promise you know Sir John. Even if you don't, you likely love what he can do without even realizing he's the man behind the plan. How do I know this? Because he has touched the face of perfection itself – that is, he does makeup for Queen Bey, along with Joan Smalls and Soo Joo Park.
