| Celebrity Makeup Artist and Owner/Founder of Celebrity Lipstick, Chemo Diva, and Red Carpet Makeup |
Professional Makeup Artist, Kelly Robertson, founder and owner of Celebrity Lipstick – featuring the amazing semi-permanent LipSense lipstick line - also runs an amazing company known as “Chemo Diva.”
Chemo Diva has participated in events to help those who have cancer. These events take place outside of the hospital setting to give women a break from being patients and allow them to experience something beautiful outside and apart from the life they have come to know since they were diagnosed.
Twice in one year, the company was involved in Club Libby Lu’s project at St. Jude’s hospital, where they treated little girls with cancer to a day of beauty and love. The girls experienced a day of pampering by Celebrity Lipstick Makeup artists and stylists, and the staff intends to remain in contact with the girls to help them further. Unfortunately, Libby Lu’s has closed their doors, but Kelly and her business partner, Garnet (who is a cancer survivor, and Kelly tells us that she is the inspiration for Chemo Diva) continue to work with the girls through St. Jude, offering workshops in donated space in the Inland Empire, Orange, and San Diego counties.

"Chemo Diva makeup artists also teach group and private make-up application workshops to clients who've lost their hair due to treatment from cancer-killing drugs/chemotherapy, Alopecia or TTM. Eyebrows are important, we know! and it's so true: If you look good on the outside, you'll feel better on the inside!" ~ Kelly Robertson
Chemo Diva also participates in Senegence International’s non-profit “Make Sense Foundation,” which seeks to serve women and children in crisis. As a Senegence distributor and makeup artist, Kelly volunteers her time to teach makeup techniques and skin care with her clientele and makes donations (a portion of her makeup and skincare sales) to the Makes Sense Foundation. Through her companies Celebrity Lipstick and Chemo Diva, she personally donates 5% of all profits from her retail sales and fundraisers to this worthy cause.
Other events that Kelly participates in include “The Pampered Lady Cruise” in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness, and the Wounded Warrior Project, which reaches out to local soldiers and their families. As a veteran herself (as are her spouse and father), this organization is close to Kelly’s heart.
On February 5, 2011, Kelly worked at a red carpet event with her friend, hair stylist, Ricardo, and a crew of makeup artists in support of Charity for Charity’s event “Stars of the Valley.” This event will grant wishes to Temecula, California area residents, including Hailey, an eight year old girl who was born with a rare disorder.

I asked Kelly some questions about her work as a Celebrity Makeup Artist, and her business, Celebrity Lipstick.
Kelly shared a small variety of the clients that she has worked on as athe primary MUA, and this has included: Nick Swardson, Jim Balushi ("Pretend Time" comedy Sketch on Comedy Central), Debra Messing in "The Starter Wife," Lindsay Lohan in "Underground Comedy,: Kelly Cutrone, and was recently the lead MUA on a YSL campaign shoot and an Urban Outfitters ad.Additionally, Kelly has worked on a lot of sets as the assistant MakeUp Artist, including work on: the music artist P!nk (Pink), Elizabeth Moss in "Get Him to the Geek," Laura Linney, Angie Harmon, Kelly Osbourne, and lots of others.
Kelly also wanted to share a list of Makeup Artiss who inspire her and notes that some of them are published authors, as well:
In Kelly's words:
Maria Foster (UK) - Maria came to the US last year and stayed with us for many week just to enhance her portfolio and work with famous models from agencies like FORD - she's amazing talent!
Lisa Eldridge (UK) - The most professional MUA vids I've ever viewed
Tricia Sawyer -- so pretty, humble and professional
Charla Krupp - used to be Editor for Glamour (I think)
Christopher Hopkins - Amazing talent for complete makeovers (and I mean COMPLETE transformations, GOD's work in my opinon)
Eve Pearl - Fabulous woman whom I've had the pleasure of traveling to NY to learn from and get to know
David Zyla (fashionist and color expert) His book is amazing for anyone / everyone
And last, but certainly not least, Celebrity Makeup Artist and YouTube Makeup Guru, Kandee Johnson, to whom I owe the accolade!
