Internationally known for her groundbreaking work with make up, Sharon Gault has created iconic looks for some of the biggest names in show business and fashion, and in the process, defined emerging trends for two decades in modern pop culture.

At the age of 16, Sharon became very interested in photography, and later trained with Vidal Sassoon as a hairstylist. A few years later, she discovered her passion for make up, and chose to focus her energy in this direction. Already a veteran of the Hollywood fashion scene, it was not until she toured with Madonna on the "Blonde Ambition" tour, and was featured in the candid feature documentary "In bed with Madonna" that Sharon came to the attention of the world. To this day, many people know her simply as "Mama Makeup", a nickname given to her by the dancers on the tour.

In the years to follow, Sharon has collaborated with some of the world's most acclaimed photographers including David La Chapelle, Ellen Von Unsworth, Isabel Snyder, Matthew Rolston, Tony Duran, Richard Mclaren, Michel Comte and Herb Ritts.

Her work is constantly in demand by Hollywood celebrities, who need to look their best for red carpet award shows, interviews, and photo shoots, giving her a client roster that includes Lady Gaga, Keri Hilson, Solange Knowles, Courtney Love, Drea DeMatteo, Hilary Duff, Amber Tamblyn, Jennifer Garner, Rachael Griffith, Charlize Theron, Renee Zellwegger, Cameron Diaz, Robert Downey Jr, Britney Spears, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Demi Moore, Johnny Depp, Madonna, Enrique Iglesias, Cindy Crawford, Hilary Swank, Kate Bosworth, Gwen Stefani, Thora Birch and many more.

With such a background, it is not surprising to find that Sharon's work has featured in such renowned publications as Italian Vogue, British Vogue, Interview, The Face, Arena, Vanity Fair, ID, InStyle, Glamour, Allure, Marie Claire, GQ, Elle, W, Harper's & Queen and Rolling Stone. In addition, she has worked on music videos for artists including Lady Gaga, Solange Knowles, Keri Hilson, Britney Spears, Elton John, Moby, KD Lang, Enrique Iglesias, Christina Aguilera, Madonna, Avril Lavigne, Elton John, and The Vines.

Passing on her skills is important to Sharon, who enjoys teaching immensely. Her training workshops are in high demand by aspiring make up artists, who come away from her workshops with invaluable techniques and insight from a master of the medium.
