Laura was raised in province, France, and at age 17 enrolled in painting school in Paris. With some coaxing from her mother, she decided to shift her talents to a new canvas, leaving her easel for the face. From there she attended the prestigious Carita beauty institute, specializing in makeup application. A diligent student with an innate eye for makeup artistry, Laura excelled in her classes and subsequently represented Carita as a makeup artist and makeup teacher, working closely with renowned makeup artist Thibault vabre. In the mid-1980s Laura moved to the united states and began a revolutionary career in the magazine industry, working on the launch of American Elle and editorial spreads for allure, vanity fair, glamour, w, and InStyle, among many others.
