    As an internationally trained and renowned cosmetic artist with Chanel, Christian Dior Beauty and Trish McEvoy, the passion for makeup, beauty and people has always been Andrew C. Petersen’s driving force. Currently, Andrew continues to be a major player in the world of beauty in the picturesque city of Charleston, SC where he works his makeup magic on his elite clientele and has developed a lip gloss line in collaboration with Dr. Christy Cone. This new beauty formula, Misiu Beauty, a Polish term of endearment making reference to the one whom you hold close to your heart, is available at stores across the Southeast and on MisiuBeauty.com

    Andrew’s experience level runs the gamut. He’s professionally well heeled in all print, editorial, and event cosmetic artistry. His work has been featured in the New York Times, Southern Living, Southern Bride, Domino magazine, Charleston Weddings magazine, Charleston Post & Courier and Skirt magazine to name a few. The main goal of this cosmetic guru is to enhance the beauty in individuals one brush stroke at a time. He maintains that his priorities are to “help others achieve their own personal and professional success.” As Petersen sees it “beauty shines from within and makeup frames that”.

    Petersen, a University of Nevada graduate, began his career in 1991 with Chanel cosmetics. His illustrious career has taken him from New York to Europe. He’s now made his home in the charming city of Charleston, South Carolina where he serves his exclusive clientele.

    His avid volunteer record includes work with the Ryan White Foundation, LowCountry AIDS Services, Charleston Center for Women, Charleston Fashion Week, South Carolina Association of Professionals and Advocates, as well as Leadership South Carolina.
