I guess now, you have to know a thing or two about the person standing behind all these photos.
My (real) name is Marianna Varlamou and I am 28 years old, based Athens, Greece.
I originally studied German Languange and Literature, but as soon as I graduated,I realised I needed to do something more, in order to express myself and all those thoughts inside my head. So creating make up art became my passion.
My journey started with winning the “Make It Girl” creative contest with MAYBELLINE Greece. Shortly after, I studied & I graduated from “Freddy Make Up Stage” by Freddy Kalobratso, successfully participated in 1:1 seminars with Korina Takaroni and launched by first big job in Television, in the Music Talk Show “Dynata” with greek singer, Kostis Maraveyas.
If I would describe my art, I’d say it’s a work across editorial, fashion, and SFX projects. My approach balances technical precision with creative depth, blending clean beauty aesthetics with bold conceptual work. I love mixing my ideas and textures and feelings. Whether I’m preparing talent for a campaign, creating skin perfection for a cover shoot, or designing character-driven looks for film and television, my goal remains the same- to tell a story through texture, color, and emotion. My portfolio includes collaborations with artists such as Tamta, Maraveyas, feature in Vogue Greece, and campaigns for AEK F.C., among others.
(yep, that's me in all of these)
