Christine Dolce

Christine Dolce was born on August 31, 1981, in Long Beach, California. The youngest of two children, she developed a knack for standing out from the crowd early on. "Ever since I was younger, I always felt a little different," she recalls. "I had a need to make a statement."

Christine soon learned to express herself through cosmetics. "I started doing all of my friends' makeup in junior high," she says. "From then on, I fell in love with it and it was like an art to me. I knew that makeup artistry was my passion."

Within a few years, Christine landed a plum job with Chanel, eventually working her way up to the position of Chanel Counter Manager. Although she enjoyed the work, she feared that she was missing out on even bigger opportunities. "I knew there was something..." she says. "I just didn't know exactly what it was."
