Another snippet from a film called “The Cell”. I was the Makeup Designer. I was blessed with an extraordinary Makeup and Hair Team on board with me. We were fortunate to be nominated for an Academy Award.My job is to bring the writer and directors vision to life. Here is “The King” in the dream world played by Vincent D’Onofrio. Extraordinary costume by Eiko Ishioka. Prosthetic collaboration with K.N.B. Lab. You are looking at at a prosthetic chest and back over a harness to pull his cape. Of course, facial prosthetics as well. Do you see the hummingbird?🆒#eikoishioka #knb #thecell #jlo #makeup #makeupartist #burkemakeup #oscars #academyawards #makeupdesign #micheleburkemakeupartist #ireland #hollywood #irishwomen #spfxmakeup #spfxmakeupartist #spfx #prosthetics #prostheticmakeup ⭕️ https://www.instagram.com/micheleburke_mua/p/BvNqNUAFzHR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1imzn7pipj37c

A snippet from a film called “The Cell”. I was the Makeup Designer. I was blessed with an extraordinary Makeup and Hair Team on board with me. We were fortunate to be nominated for an Academy Award. I was tasked to design the Makeup for “the Dolls” as part of my assignment. I took it as a creative endeavor. My job is to bring the writer and directors vision to life. Of course many obvious comments could be made about the subject matter and the content of countless films many of us enjoy. Agreed. #thecell #jlo #makeup #makeupartist #burkemakeup #oscars #academyawards #makeupdesign #micheleburkemakeupartist #ireland #hollywood #irishwomen ⭕️ https://www.instagram.com/micheleburke_mua/p/BvNI1f1FY1j/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=mgvqa6d9jtq7

Some days a few words from Leonard Cohen are appropriate. Take from it what you will. Agree or disagree. In any event, pause and reflect. Full lyrics are readily available.

Dr. Hauschka Naturkosmetik: Natural Skin Care and Cosmetics for Face and Body Two principles that I work by in the makeup trailer and in my studio when it comes to Design and Application 1- KISS - A backronym for "keep it simple, stupid", is a design principle noted by the U.S. Navy in 1960. The KISS principle states that most systems work best if they are kept simple rather than made complicated; therefore, simplicity should be a key goal in design, and unnecessary complexity should be avoided. 2- OCCAM'S RAZOR -  The problem-solving principle that essentially states that "simpler solutions are more likely to be correct than complex ones." When presented with competing hypotheses to solve a problem, one should select the solution with the fewest assumptions. Alas, simplicity does not come easily and eludes many products and systems. Fortunately, I discovered Dr. Hauschka early in my career. I realized the importance of preparing the skin, my "canvas" prior to applying any makeup Dr. Hauschka is a pioneer in the field of natural cosmetics. The brand is made up of high-quality, organically and naturally certified cosmetics that is developed according to nature's rhythm. Dr. Hauschka is certified cruelty-free by PETA. They state on their website, “We assure you that no animal tests have ever been carried out by or on behalf of Dr. Hauschka Cosmetics, nor will this happen in the future – not for the Chinese market nor any other market anywhere There are actually three people to thank for its existence: Austrian philosopher Rudolph Steiner, Austrian medical chemist Dr Rudolph Hauschka and Austrian nurse Elisabeth Sigmund Please know. I am not paid to bring this to your attention. I do it as a service Hope you enjoy my artwork that accompanies this post as well. ⭕️ #drhauschka #drhauschkaskincare #micheleburkemakeupartist #skincareroutine #skincare #skincareproducts #makeupartist #makeuptutorial #makeup #film #ireland #irishwoman #hollywood ⭕️ https://www.instagram.com/micheleburke_mua/p/Bu-ObIFFrv_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15lhr7erbmhto

At yesterdays Makeup and Hair Symposium at the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences celebrating this years nominees. This years symposium was special for me as I invited Heather Plott. I was a mentor to Heather early in her career and assisted her in getting in the biz. Heather is currently working on the hit show, “This is Us”. Heather deserves great credit in that she learned the craft of makeup and went on to build her career. #makeup #oscars2019 #oscars #makeupsymposium #academyawards #heatherplott #micheleburkemakeupartist #burkemakeup #mentor #mentorship #hollywood #ireland #irishwomen #thisisus ⭕️ https://www.instagram.com/micheleburke_mua/p/BuR9p2xF8WG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=or1luaho0d2v

"Your never going to get where your going if you acknowledge fear" I think the fear comes later, when it's all over" Marie Catherine Colvin (January 12, 1956 – February 22, 2012) was an American journalist who worked as a foreign affairs correspondent, for the British newspaper The Sunday Times from 1985 until her death. She described "merciless" shelling and sniper attacks against civilian buildings and people on the streets of Homs by Syrian forces. She died while covering the siege of Homs in Syria. Please see her story as depicted in the film, "A Private War" There is far too much being kept private from all of us. Investigate.

Many of you know my love of dogs.... well.... all animals...When I was 11, one of my first creative projects while at school in Dublin ( Mount Anville) was making this stuffed animal. Of course I chose a dog... and for some reason that  I don't quite recall.... I chose a Dachshund I've moved around alot over the years, many different countries.. My beloved stuff animal vanished along the way.  Like... I haven't known where it was for over 40 years. In fact, I hear it has been attended to by a very well known stuffed animal hospital in England. Truth be told they care for all the Royals stuffed animals as well. Anyway, my little stuffed Dachshund has just been returned to me !! The amazing part of the story is that over the past years I've has three Dachshunds of my own ( pictured). They are amazing creatures and companions. They are all hound built into that tiny body. they are greatly disadvantaged by there short legs and long bodies yet you would never know it. I never connected my love for them to my long lost and now found little stuffed animal My brother actually had it all along The End. ...... #dogs #daschundsofinstagram #daschund #weiners #animals #micheleburke #burkemakeup #film #ireland ⭕️ https://www.instagram.com/p/BrGyI9cltR4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=jxl0w4bl2jr
