Samantha Kininmonth


Hair & Makeup Designer

Samantha’s ascent through the ranks of the makeup department has been sure-footed and steady. Period, drama, comedy and horror – she takes it all in her stride, and with experience on hugely popular shows such as ‘The Crown’, ‘Detectorists’, and ‘McMafia’, she has also added the Michael Caine/Rita Ora feature film ‘Twist’ to her list of credits.
