My name is Estera, and I am a professional makeup artist based in Zagreb.

Although I graduated in Journalism, I always found myself drawn to the beauty industry. I began working in makeup during my university years, quite intuitively at first, led by a love for aesthetics, but even more by an interest in how a woman feels when she recognises herself in the mirror. That sense of ease, of quiet confidence, has always been at the core of my work.

My foundation in makeup artistry was formed over 12 years ago through two levels of formal trainings at a recognised beauty academy in Croatia, based on an international programme known for its high standards. Since then, my approach has been continuously shaped through further education, attending selected masterclasses and trainings led by internationally respected artists allowing my work to evolve.

Over time, that instinct naturally grew into a profession, and my work has come to be recognised for a refined, modern and timeless approach to bridal beauty.

I don’t see makeup as a transformation, but as a way to elevate what is already there – creating something polished, effortless and deeply personal, while still feeling entirely like you.

Over the years, I’ve been trusted by wedding planners across Croatia, Italy and Montenegro, as well as by brides coming from all over the world. Beyond technique and very high hygiene standards in my work, what I find very important is bringing a sense of calm and structure to the morning, something that often shapes the entire experience more than expected. Because a wedding morning isn’t just about getting ready, but about how you move through it.

I am available for destination weddings across Croatia, Italy and Montenegro.
