Kristen Marrah 

As a young girl, she was always getting into her mother's makeup.  In college she was the go-to girl for going out makeup.  While in college she realized being a teacher was not her true calling and left school to pursue her passion: making women feel amazing, confident, and gorgeous. In 2005 she attended esthetics school.  She soon learned that makeup is only one aspect of beauty - it all begins with great skin care.  While utilizing her knowledge as a licensed skin care therapist and skills as a makeup artist, she is dedicated to the full package.  She specializes in tailored skin care treatments, brow shaping, natural beauty makeup for weddings, special events and photoshoots.  Kristen continues her education through International Dermal Institute (IDI), Dermalogica, IBS NYC shows, the Powder Group (TPG) and MacPro classes to boost her expertise in new products, techniques and trends.  She received her 100 hour post graduate degree from IDI in 2009.  In 2010 a distant dream became a reality when she opened Gloss & Glamour and recieved BEST New Salon through RI Monthly that same year!  Now with combining forces with her amazing partner & friend, Jaclyn Murphy, to open their new shoppe, LuniacGlamour is more then she could ever imagine!!!  

Jaclyn Alteiri Murphy

As a child Jaclyn was always creating. She would bring her boxes of beads everywhere and sell hand made jewels at her local family beach. As she got older designing and creating jewelry became an outlet for so many things. It satisfied her need to create, and make people smile when they wore her things. The question became… how can making jewelry translate into something more? It was a distant dream to one day own a business that incorporated her style and vision. She is a true believer in, if you don’t know HOW something will come into fruition, you have to believe that it WILL happen. Jaclyn gets a lot of her inspiration from her obsession with style, trends, and fashion. Beyonce (of course) is a huge icon, and Jaclyn’s belief that incorporating anything shiny will make almost everyone smile!   After years of creating, dreaming, and working hard… Luniac Glamour finally became a reality. She and her fabulous business partner Kristen Marrah shared a similar vision to have a glamorous, fun, local shoppe/salon on Main Street in East Greenwich. It’s a far cry from sitting on her couch making earrings for trunk shows, and art fests, but the vision has always been the same. Work hard, believe in what your vision is, and receive great things.
