Hi, I’m Lauren

I’ve been freelance makeup artist covering Kent and the South East since 2009 and I’ve worked for some of the biggest beauty brands in the world. I love my job, and feel very privileged to be part of some very special days in my clients’ lives’

Makeup isn’t just about a look, it’s a feeling.

It’s creating the face you want to show the world.

I always knew I wanted to start my own business, and the Idea for Beauty School Dropouts came to me one day when I was on the verge of giving up makeup altogether. I knew I needed do things differently. I’ve been working on it ever since.

The bus isnt just my studio. Its a place where artists who need to gain experience, meet their clients and build their business can come to work without it costing more money than they earn.

I run the studio, but behind it is a team of passionate professionals working together to create something really special.



And then there is Mavis..

Shes a gorgeous American bus all the way from Alabama.

She has hair and makeup stations, foot spas and compfy sofas, and enough disco balls to make anyone smile.
