She's a talented makeup artist who recently took part in the FACE to FACE Makeup Competition at the Makeup Show(a networking, educational , inspirational makeup event and exhibition which occurs in several locations in the United States) which took place in Orlando, Florida and emerged WINNER,Yay! Big Deal If You Ask Me!

Love Olaleye is a Nigerian -born chemical engineer whose quest into the world of makeup art started as a hobby; doing makeup for brides and friends. Her facial experiments soon grew into a passion when she enrolled as a Mary Kay Consultant in 2007 while she was still at the prestigious University of Port-Harcourt, Nigeria. Exploring the passion further, meant taking up a professional makeup course at Brushstrokes Makeover Limited, where she was awarded an ‘A Grade” Certificate in Makeup Art. This inevitable earned her a place to work as an instructor in the organization for the next one year. This move proved to be strategic as it grew her natural instincts for makeup brand enterprise.
Flawless Beauty, her flagship business
which began in December 2009 has since
grown to accommodate a rich bouquet of clientele which includes some of
Nigeria’s biggest celebrities. Olaleye’s certifications among many others
include an Advanced Professional Certificate in Makeup artistry from Epro Image Institute in Madrid, Spain
and a business certificate from African
Business Academy, Lagos where she serves as a volunteer facilitator. She also
had the honor of being chosen amongst the pioneer IBM Enterprise 100 Challenge Graduates in Nigeria.
