About Elly
Hello, my name is Elly. I've been a makeup artist since 2016, and I still train every year because beauty trends never stop evolving. I've studied under famous artists in Korea, Hong Kong, Thailand, and Taiwan — and if you love Korean dramas, you'll understand my aesthetic straight away.
"Makeup always starts with a real conversation. I take time to understand your personality, your energy, and how you see yourself — because your makeup should feel like you, just on your best day."
My style is soft, refined, and natural. I care deeply about making my brides look youthful and radiant in a very natural way — without heavy contour or thick makeup. Beautiful not only in photos, but when you look in the mirror and enjoy every moment of the day.
I don't specialise in Western full-glam or heavy contour looks. But if you're drawn to Asian aesthetics, Korean drama vibes, and effortless elegance, I'd love to create a custom look just for you.
Korean / Asian style vs Western glam
| 🇰🇷 Korean / Asian Style Elly's specialty | 💄 Western Full Glam | |
|---|---|---|
| Skin finish | Luminous, glass-skin glow — light and breathable | Full-coverage, matte or heavy dewy finish |
| Lips | Soft gradient "lip tint" — youthful and fresh | Bold, sculpted, often dark or vivid colour |
| Eyes | Subtle definition that opens and lifts naturally | Smoky, cut crease, strong liner — high drama |
| Contouring | Minimal — slimming effect achieved softly | Sculpted, visible highlight and shadow |
| Lashes | Light and natural — comfortable all day and night | Fuller, more theatrical styles |
| Overall feel | "No-makeup makeup" — you, but glowing | High-impact, seen-across-the-room glamour |
Neither is "better" — they serve different visions. Elly specialises in the Korean/Asian aesthetic and will help you find the look that truly feels like you at your consultation.

Ask a questionPeak wedding season in Melbourne runs September to April — Saturdays especially fill very fast. I recommend enquiring at least 6–12 months in advance to secure your date. A non-refundable deposit is required to confirm your booking.
Highly recommended. The trial is our time to test the look, discuss what you love, make any adjustments, and take reference photos — so your wedding morning is relaxed and you already know how beautiful you'll look. Trials are usually 4–8 weeks before the wedding.

Korean-style makeup prioritises skin — a luminous, glass-skin finish that looks naturally beautiful in person and on camera. It uses soft gradient lips, subtle eye techniques, and lightweight layers so you feel comfortable all day. Western glam tends toward stronger coverage, sculpted contouring, and more dramatic eyes and lips. Elly specialises in the Korean/Asian aesthetic — natural, youthful, and effortlessly elegant. She does not specialise in heavy Western glam.
My kit features luxury brands including Clé de Peau, La Mer, Dior, Charlotte Tilbury, Chanel, Fenty, and Laura Mercier. I always ask about allergies and sensitivities at consultation, and I carry hypoallergenic alternatives. All eyelashes used are lightweight and designed to stay comfortable through a long evening.
Bridal makeup and hair takes 2–3 hours. Bridesmaids and mothers take around 45–70 minutes each. Groom and father services are approximately 20 minutes. I'll help you plan a realistic timeline for the morning so everyone is relaxed and ready on time.
