CURATOR OF CONFIDENCE

Chicago-based celebrity makeup artist RABECCA ANN is a true curator of confidence. Inspired by her flaws at a young age, she became enamored with embracing her insecurities and turning them into her superpower. Rabecca began her career as a makeup artist 12 years ago with the iconic Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. Today, her brand, Rabecca Ann Artistry, provides on-location luxury makeup services to such celebrities as NFL champion Patrick Mahomes’ mother, Randi Mahomes, and the NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s wife, Jane Skinner. Her work has also been seen on Seasons One and Two of the Netflix series, Indian Matchmaking. Rabecca’s timeless and natural aesthetic helps clients feel like the best version of themselves with a “No- Makeup, Makeup” look.

Most rewarding part of what you do? There’s nothing more fulfilling than seeing the joy and self-assurance radiate from my clients when they look in the mirror and feel truly beautiful. It’s a privilege to play a part in these transformative moments, knowing that I’ve helped someone feel more confident and empowered, something I once struggled with.

How should women support other women? Women should support each other by demonstrating kindness, sincerity, mentorship, and sharing experiences. We can empower each other by remembering the support we wished for earlier in our journeys.

How do you inspire others? Through my unwavering work ethic and by being unapologetically myself. I show that it’s possible to be both compassionate and driven. My journey from working at a makeup counter to collaborating with high-profile clients, as well as my work being featured on Netflix and the 2024 Super Bowl stage demonstrates grit and determination. By sharing my story and maintaining a positive, authentic approach to life and work, I encourage others to pursue their passions and remain true to themselves.
