Kim Johannesson is the founder and lead artist behind Colour Me Artistry, specializing in luxury bridal makeup and elevated beauty experiences for clients across Winnipeg and beyond. With over 15 years of experience in the beauty industry, Kim has built a reputation for creating timeless, glowing makeup looks while making every client feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely cared for throughout the process.

Known for her soft glam artistry and attention to detail, Kim’s approach goes far beyond makeup alone. She believes the experience should feel just as memorable as the final result — calm, organized, luxurious, and completely personalized to each client’s features, style, and comfort level. Whether working with a bride on one of the biggest mornings of her life or preparing clients for events, photoshoots, or special occasions, her goal is always the same: helping people feel like the most elevated version of themselves without feeling overdone.

Over the years, Kim has worked with hundreds of bridal clients and has become known not only for her artistry, but for the energy she brings into the room. Her clients often describe her as calming, warm, professional, and someone who instantly feels like part of the day. She understands how emotional and fast-paced wedding mornings can be, and intentionally creates an environment that feels grounded, seamless, and enjoyable from start to finish.

Her artistry style blends modern luxury with skin-focused beauty, emphasizing healthy, radiant skin, seamless blending, and makeup that photographs beautifully while still looking like you in real life. Every appointment includes thoughtful skin prep, product selection tailored to the individual, and techniques designed for long-lasting wear without feeling heavy or uncomfortable.

Outside of artistry, Kim is deeply inspired by fashion, interior design, texture, editorial beauty, and creating spaces that feel expressive and welcoming. That influence can be seen throughout the Colour Me Artistry brand — a blend of elevated beauty with personality, warmth, and a touch of whimsy.

For Kim, makeup has never been about covering people up. It’s about enhancing what already exists, creating confidence, and giving clients a moment to slow down, feel taken care of, and walk away feeling beautiful in their own skin.
