Mary McAndrews
I have been involved in the skincare and permanent makeup industry for over 23 years. Beginning my career in Las Vegas, Nevada I was fortunate enough to work with some of the best in the industry. While following my passion in this fast paced, glamorous region I attained invaluable training and education that I have carried with me throughout my career. I worked for the Estee Lauder Corporation for 9 years in education, product development, and management. My close work with the Lauder family and executives allowed me to gain knowledge and experience in the area of makeup for photography, modeling, television, and local performers. As a sought-after makeup artist, I thrived in my career becoming a national educator. It was a great time of growth and excitement in my career.
I moved to Sarasota in 2000, and it wasn’t long before I opened Lasting Looks of Sarasota. My passion has always been to create beautiful faces from the inside out. This led me to believe that beautiful makeup comes from beautiful skin which can only be achieved from a healthy diet and lifestyle. In addition, I feel that a great permanent makeup artist must be highly skilled in conventional makeup as well. With an eye for detail, I create permanent makeup that is as unique as you are. I create natural looks for eyeliner and eyebrows with my specialty being areola/nipple restoration for breast cancer patients. As a licensed paramedical esthetician and permanent makeup artist I have partnered with some of the finest plastic surgeons and dermatologists in our area. I am regularly called upon to lecture at the Cancer Support Community, local events, country clubs and have been featured on two local television stations in support of women health.
I am pleased to introduce my fantastic team of like-minded professionals who look forward to assisting you in your skin care, makeup, and nutritional needs for a lifetime of healthy skin.
