To all of my internet community and my close family, relatives and some friends I am known as Shasha. However, my real name is Nadeesha De Alwis. I was born in 1990 and has been a creative soul since I was a very small girl. I am originally from Sri Lanka and have been living in Brisbane, Australia for many years. Although my citizenship may say I am an Australian, in my heart I will always be Sri Lankan.

At the age of 4 I began my traditional Kandyan dancing and this is where I began to really like makeup. My mother was my greatest inspiration as she used to be a bridal dresser. When I was participating in dancing concerts she always did my hair and makeup. I have learnt a lot from her and then over the years grew up learning more and more makeup techniques and trends. I started my Youtube channel 'Itsmrsshasha' (previously known as ShashanMakeup) back in 2010 as a hobby to share my makeup interests with the other makeup lovers. However, I am currently a self taught freelancing Makeup Artist working from my home. I have done makeup and hair for so many girls for events such as weddings  (bridal and bridesmaids), birthday parties, dancing concerts, photo shoots any many more other events.
