PINKY

Nicole Thompson isn’t just passionate about makeup, she’s passionate about life. “Makeup and beauty is not about perfection, it is about a feeling. The power to change your energy through makeup and your personal look is real!” she says. It’s this effervescent attitude that earned her the nickname “Pinky” – a moniker she’s well known as within the fashion and entertainment industries.

Bringing so much more than makeup to the table, Pinky’s skills include creative direction, makeup education and training, beauty writing and hosting. “While my happy place is in a land of colourful creative chaos – having order to that chaos means we are likely to achieve something more epic,” she says. Pinky has appeared on morning TV, was a brand ambassador MAC, Elizabeth Arden and Clinique and was the Director of Hair and Makeup for The Voice for 4 Seasons. In 2019 she wrote her first book “Making It Up, Makeup Minus the Rules”, published internationally by New Holland.

My signature aesthetic is… Pink. Passionate. Positive.

I have collaborated with brands including… Romance was Born, Peter Alexander, 10 Magazine, Swarovski and MECCA.

My favourite piece of work so far is… Writing my book - Making it Up, Makeup Minus the Rules. The book was a labour of love and a life’s dream completed – a true bucket list moment for me. 

If I could shoot an editorial of anyone (living or dead)… I would die to shoot an editorial with Cher. Her ‘70s and ‘80s wardrobe and style are what my disco dreams are made of; always too much, and always just enough. 

My favourite location to shoot in is… in a studio. I love how the light, sound and mood can all be adjusted and controlled for the day. 

My muse is… Iris Apfel, in both beauty and attitude. Two quotes I love from her are, “More is more and less is a bore,” and, “The goal isn't to be pretty. It never is. The goal is to look in the mirror and enjoy what you see.”

My personal brand is… PINKY! My aura is pink. I strive to be positive, warm, authentic, passionate, approachable and original. Life is too short, we need to suck the juice out of all the moments! 

What I do that sets me apart is… my broad range of experience. With nearly 20 years of makeup across, TV, film, stage, fashion and photography, twisted with my passion for education, then blended with my passion for ideation means what I can offer a client is broad, tested and researched. 

If I had my own signature scent, it would be called…  She’s like a rainbow.
