Hello, my name is Ashley McLemore!
I’m passionate about encouraging and empowering women and girls of all ages. My goal is to uplift women by enhancing their God-given beauty.
I have true passion for the work I do in the makeup industry. With over 7+ years of experience as a freelance artist, I’ve developed a versatile range of skills by learning various techniques and makeup applications tailored to different races, ages, and skin tones.
I specialize in creating natural and breathable makeup looks. I believe in enhancing my clients’ God-given beauty which means enhancing their features. I avoid heavy makeup applications as I believe in preserving my clients’ natural appearance and ensuring they remain recognizable.
My story
As a young girl, I was captivated by the sight of my mom and grandma applying makeup. At just nine years old, I began experimenting with makeup myself, igniting the spark that set me on the path to becoming a freelance artist. Through daily practice and studying makeup tutorials from beauty experts, I gradually expanded my knowledge and recognized my own potential.
Eventually, I started sharing my makeup creations on social media, where they received positive feedback from family and friends. At the age of 13, I thought to myself: “I want to be a makeup artist, why not start now.” With this mindset, I launched my own freelance makeup artist business, initially named Makeup By Ashley. My motto, “Age has nothing to do with talent,” served as a reminder to myself that despite facing some negativity, I was determined to persevere and excel in my craft.
I am deeply grateful for the opportunities that have come my way and for the connections I’ve made along this journey. None of this would have been possible if I hadn’t taken that initial step of bravery.

Mission
As a woman who has struggled with insecurity and low-self esteem, my mission is to share how I’ve found true confidence and overall happiness through a relationship with Jesus Christ, and how others can too!
My goal is to help women recognize their worth and beauty. I want to share with women and girls the truth that they are Fearfully and Wonderfully Made.
