Hi, I'm Megan Colwell
I became infatuated with all things beauty at a young age. One of my favorite things to do as a little girl was play with my grandmother’s makeup at her vanity. I was also very studious; it was always assumed that I would go on to a 4 year university, but after graduating high school in 2006 I decided to pursue a career in Aesthetics and makeup artistry.
​
After graduating from Palomar Institute of Cosmetology in San Diego in 2007, I began my 10 year career at European Wax Center and moved to Phoenix, AZ. I naturally excelled in speed waxing, and I enjoy being able to give men and women an instant result, with little pain or time commitment.
​
Though speed waxing will forever be valuable skill and component of my practice, my passion for enhancing skin health and facial features has never been lost. In 2017, I left my job to open Megan Faces, and am able to incorporate all of my skills and passions in one place.
​
I never put down the makeup brushes; I spent 3 years freelancing for MAC Cosmetics, and doing freelance bridal and special occasion makeup. Makeup should be a form of creativity and expression, not a necessity. The face has so many layers, and the best makeup application begins with optimal skin health. My fulfillment comes not only from handing a bride a mirror to see her face for her wedding day, but helping my clients understand and achieve their most flawless face possible, with and without makeup.
