Hi Friends!

My name is Jade Labriola, and I am a state certified makeup artist and educator based out of Naperville, IL. In 2022 I became co-owner of Make Up First® School of Makeup Artistry, where I was professionally trained in 2016. I absolutely LOVE training new artists and helping them surpass their goals. Along with my career as an educator and business owner, I've worked as a freelance artist in all aspects of the industry. Over the past 8 years, I've gained experience working in Bridal, Fashion/Runway, Commercial, Theatrical/SFX, and Corrective Clinical Makeup. Throughout my career I've cultivated partnerships with award winning photographers, as well as fashion and cosmetic brands. I often work behind the scenes of various photoshoots and fashion shows, and most notably, I've recently produced and directed our first makeup-focused runway show presented by Make Up First®.
