About Elena Radu, Tattoo Specialist
My name is Elena Radu and I am known as a MAC Certified Makeup artist and Microblading artist/instructor. I am 31 years old. I was born and raised in Moldova, a small country in Eastern Europe. I came in the US in 2013, October. Since I was little girl, I was playing with my mom’s makeup. I remember like now of my very first two models that were my lovely older sisters. I’ve been in beauty industry since 2005. I started my beauty career being second year of college as a Beauty Consultant for Avon. I was selling makeup products to all my colleagues, neighbors, family, etc. Later on, I was introduced to another makeup brand called Oriflame. In 2014 being in the US, I came across this company Younique, I remember I was amazed by their 3D Mascara, lol. I decided to follow my got and dream to become a Professional Makeup Artist, and I continued my education. In April 2015, I graduated Roberts Jones Beauty Academy as a Professional Makeup Artist. In April 2016, I received my certification as an Airbrush Makeup Artist. At that time, I was freelancing and I was collaborating with a couple of local photographers for Boudoir photography and weddings. In October 2016, I joined MAC Cosmetics family. Since then, I received 3 MAC Certifications and became MAC Impact Team Member. My beauty mission did not stop there. Today I call myself a Professional Makeup Artist specialized in Beauty makeup, Editorial makeup, Bridal/traditional and airbrushed makeup and a Microblading artist. I decided to develop my skills in semi-permanent makeup industry. In June 2018, I became a Microblading artist/technician certified by Irina Wynn the CEO of World Microblading Academy. In July 2018, I opened my own business Elena Radu Artistry and my own salon suite inside Blue Lion Salon Studios Birnham Woods (temporarily closed due to maternity leave). Since April 2019, I started my collaboration with World Microblading Academy as an Instructor for the online courses provided by the company. Momentarily I am enjoying my ultimate creation gave by God my three months old baby girl Mia and also working on a fabulous project yet to come for summer 2020, stay tuned.
