The Quarantine Series - Episode 5. Cherrie chats with the brilliant Make-Up Artist Maria Comparetto. Born to Sicilian immigrants, Maria talks candidly about her strict upbringing and the fight to follow her dreams of becoming a make-up artist. Maria began her fashion career assisting make-up icons Linda Cantello, Val Garland and Mary Greenwell. Discussing everything from the definitive McQueen years to working with UK rap artist, Stormzy and filming the star-studded food show, Jamie and Jimmy’s Friday Night Feast set on Southend Pier in Cherrie's hometown. Now, with 29 years experience under her seasoned session belt, Maria tells us why she’s decided to launch a fashion-focused make-up school The Backstage Make-Up Mafia.
