About Claire

Claire Hunt is a makeup artist and business owner based in Hobart, Tasmania. Born and raised locally, Claire has been doing makeup professionally for 14 years and specialises in commercial and editorial shoots, TV and bridal work.

Her recent career highlights include doing music video makeup for international electronic musician Flume; working with famous Australian singer-songwriter Tina Arena; and being voted Tasmania’s Best Makeup Artist in consecutive competitions (2021-2023).

She has shot campaigns with national and international brands including Blundstone, Country Road and Francesca; designed the makeup for music videos and runway shows; and worked with Maybelline and Lancome on social media content. Claire has also worked for multiple TV networks as well as Australian comedy Rosehaven (ABC) and murder mystery Deadloch (Amazon Prime).

Claire works on weddings most weekends and is well-known locally for her reliability and the quality of her beautiful bridal work. Claire enjoys crafting polished, luxurious, natural and soft glam looks – but also thrives on the creativity of designing colourful and graphic looks for shoots. She loves the atmosphere working in a team on set and also appreciates the excitement of getting bridal parties ready for a big wedding with some happy tunes pumping.

Outside of doing makeup and talking about all things beauty and self-care with everyone she meets, some of the things Claire enjoys (in no particular order) are architecture and design, music you can dance to, animals big and small, travelling and finding the beauty in the world, and good black coffee.
