Her decades of training and a motivational journey took her from Dallas to Hollywood and back over the span of 25 years. She began by studying Psychology at University of North Texas, then moved to Hollywood becoming a Professional Makeup Artist, where Laura touched the faces of some of the brightest stars in film, television, and commercials. Her work spans over 600 celebrities and high profile figures, over a hundred television shows such as Dr. Phil, the Drew Carey Show, the Olympics, and the Emmy’s, as well as icons in the music, film and fashion business. Laura chose to add depth to her talent as a makeup artist by going on a quest to discover and connect to the original purpose of makeup. This inquiry lead Laura to study beauty’s history, psychology, philosophy, and spiritual roots including healing practices used by Native Americans. She also studied and is practiced in Kundalini Yoga, Chakra balancing, Egyptian philosophy and Face Reading. She became a certified Aromatherapist and studied Shamanic journeywork based on the studies of Anthropologist Michael Harner and stretched herself to include learning in Astrology, all giving her a universal approach founded on ancient wisdom. She moved back to her hometown of Dallas to integrate her learning and turn them into year-long personal growth journeys that incorporate personal goal-setting, wellness and beauty practices. She developed her own makeup, skincare, and aromatherapy line named Laura Leigh Beauty to complement the wellness system and to be a grounding and inspiring force in experiencing the rituals and journeys stemming from wisdom of the ancients. While in Dallas, she fine tuned her skills as a personal Success Coach and grew her leadership skills to ensure success of her company. Laura now dedicates her life to fulfilling the mission of Laura Leigh Beauty, to support others in reaching their goals and transforming their image and life.
