She has stunned people with her creative realized visions, on-screen charisma, and brilliance in fashion, beauty, and more.
We’re inspired by professionals who choose to walk unconventional paths to add value to others’ lives through their work. And many, as of late, have been women. Female leaders, business owners, experts, top voices, and artists have reached the forefront of almost every industry, inspiring all, and especially other women, worldwide. We couldn’t help but notice the significant rise of one such incredible talent named Charis Michelsen, the one who believed in her visions, relentlessly kept giving her the best, and conquered what was previously thought impossible.
Charis Michelsen, the Thomas Edison of fashion and beauty, single-handedly answered the question all have asked: “What should I wear?” via the world’s first artificial intelligence (AI) personal stylist, that she created, which is based on the world’s first Universal Beauty Standard System™ that she also created. Charis’ AI personal stylist provides ideal, individualized fashion and beauty products, services, and styling suggestions for all genders, empowering individuals with the ability to enhance their natural beauty while embracing their uniqueness. The world-renowned research university MIT was hired to accomplish what Charis did via her own analysis alone, yet failed. Beyond this, she’s also the much-talked-about author of the world’s most comprehensive beauty books, which she self-illustrated and which include techniques she invented, titled Hollywood Beauty: The Art of Star Makeup and Grooming for Men: Dirty to Polished. Through her inventions, she’s enabled all to look like their own celebrity, so trying to copy the appearance of beauty icons, which can be detrimental to mental health, can now be a thing of the past.
Charis’ journey, which led to changing the entire fashion and beauty industry for the better, began in New York City, where she moved from a small Oregon town to study fashion design at Parsons School of Design/The New School. Within two weeks of being in NYC, she was scouted by a photographer fop Harper’s BAZAAR magazine to model, which led to a professional acting career, where she won hearts as a lead actress in Hollywood and worked alongside some of the most esteemed directors such as Martin Scorsese and A-list actors such as Michael Douglas, Robert Downey Jr., Katie Holmes, and Nicolas Cage.
Inspired by watching makeup artists and stylists on sets, Charis obtained her professional makeup artist certification, which led to an offer to be a national and international spokesperson for one of the most globally renowned cosmetic brands, which she accepted. It was at this point people asked her what they should do to look their best. Not having a science-based answer, she went to work and created her Universal Beauty Standard System™, which led to the creation of her AI personal stylist. She’s since been ranked one of the world’s top five makeup artists and consults individuals and groups on how to maximize individual physical appeal, so all can look and feel their best, as well as beauty companies, to maximize their success.
Not abandoning her love for design, Charis designed and patented a signature diamond-dot pattern intended for use with a line of conscience fashion and accessory products she’s designed for her brand. Her pattern is expressed in twenty colors and contains a unique color technology that makes each act neutral, making each color more compatible with various outfits.
Charis is also a screenwriter for film and television and has created a beauty & fashion-related TV show that she’ll host, which is connected to an iconic Hollywood establishment. She’s also a producer, whose projects include A-list Hollywood talent.
Charis Michelsen is seen as the hot new name in the industry, as well as Hollywood royalty, as she represents the glamor of old Hollywood in the modern age and is the former daughter-in-law of legendary film producer Robert Evans (The Godfather, Chinatown, Rosemary’s Baby) and actress and fashion icon Ali MacGraw (Love Story, The Getaway). She’s also been listed as a notable alumnus of Parsons School of Design and been deemed a “legend” amongst other notables such as Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, and Anna Sui by The New School.
Through her systems-oriented mind, ability to solve complex problems, and revolutionary accomplishments, Charis stands tall in the world of fashion, beauty, entrepreneurship, and entertainment and inspires others to make their mark in their chosen sectors. She finds it a thrill to uplift others and watch lives and businesses be transformed for the better, and can’t emphasize enough that women have the power to take charge across industries, brainstorm newer ideas, and should put in rigorous effort to bring about a wave of positive change in their chosen sectors. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that Charis has created a niche for herself in the ever-evolving worlds of beauty, fashion, and entertainment. This has made her a beauty, fashion, and film icon that women worldwide have looked up to for the sheer magic she’s created on-screen and the phenomenal talents she’s showcased off-screen with her diverse work and portfolio.
About Charis Michelsen Forbes has written, “Her contributions to the beauty and fashion industry are commendable.” World’s Leaders Magazine called her “One of the world’s most valuable brands,” and L.A. Weekly named her one of the “Top 10 Entrepreneurs.” Charis Michelsen (@charismichelsen_official) envisions helping all look and feel their best and be the best they can be. Ultimately, she emphasizes that beauty is embracing authenticity and celebrating individuality.
