Traci GigoutCelebrity Artist
One of the industry’s most successful trainers and pro-artists, Traci Gigout is a talent who knows all the tips and tricks for bringing out the unique beauty inside every client. She spends her time traveling to educate artists in the field, on air as a beauty expert, working backstage at key fashion shows, and working with celebrity clients.
During her career, Traci’s artistry has appeared on many Paris and New York runways, for designers like Chloe, Haider Ackerman, Veronique Leroy, Betsey Johnson, Marchesa, Alice + Olivia, Vena Cava, Lela Rose, Jenni Kayne, Yigal Azrouel, Charlotte Ronson, Rebecca Minkoff, Iris Loeffler, Wayne, Tart, Corey Lynn Calter, and celebrity fashion show “GM 10 LA.” Traci was also a key artist for Barbie’s very special 50th Anniversary Fashion Show.
Traci is highly regarded in the media for her beauty expertise. She is Stila’s on-air beauty expert for QVC and The Shopping Channel. Traci has also been quoted in Shape and Nylon magazines. Traci was also a series regular on the Vh1 series, Glam God, for which she was a lead artist for the Stila beauty team.
Traci enjoys working side by side with many of Hollywood’s celebrities to get them red carpet ready – Paris Hilton, Nicky Hilton, Molly Simms, Katherine Heigl, Katherine McPhee, Lauren Conrad, Whitney Port, Hayden Panettiere, Cameron Richardson, Chanel Iman, Lily Donaldson, Elisabeth Rohm, Vivica A. Fox and Abigail Breslin.
Traci got her start in makeup with a part time job at cosmetic counter while working towards a business degree. She quickly changed her career focus after she “fell in love with the art of make-up - and the emotion of helping women feel confident and beautiful.” Known for creating “beautiful faces,” Traci focuses on enhancing her clients, “making them the star - not the makeup.”

Isn’t she lovely
But thanks to the beauty brand’s TraciGigout, I got lucky with Lovely. In between coating models’ lips with the new shade, Traci sat me down on a stool and gave me a quick makeup touch-up. She also passed me an extra tube of the lipstick to take home, so I wouldn’t have to wait until November.Expect to see me wearing a lot of pink in the coming weeks… xxRebecca -NYLON
