About
Let’s get to know each other!
Hi! I’am Helena, creative force behind this project
I believe in creating more than just another beauty workshop – I create transformative experiences where artistic skills meet personal growth.
My journey in the beauty industry, from working with published photographers to directing fashion shows like Perfect Runway in Munich, has taught me that true professional success comes from balancing technical excellence with inner confidence. This insight inspired me to develop a unique approach that goes beyond traditional industry training.
At Evara Muse Collective, we believe creativity grows stronger together.
Based in the heart of Munich, we are a collective of artists, designers, and visionaries building a space where talent is nurtured and ideas come alive.
Our mission is to support creatives through masterclasses, portfolio days, and real opportunities that help them shine.
We value honesty, fairness, and community — a place where newcomers and professionals uplift each other.
With our mix of artistry, organization, and bold imagination, we are more than a team.
We are a creative family.
Welcome to Evara Muse Collective!
We are a young collective of artists based in the heart of Munich. I’m Lena Evara, founder of this project, and my mission is to help creatives unlock their full potential through portfolio days, masterclasses, and by connecting them with real opportunities.
I started out as a trained cosmetologist specializing in creative makeup and hairstyling, and over time took on the role of Creative Director. I’ve been part of many fashion shows and productions, and I know what it takes to make a project successful. Today, I focus on guiding, sharing knowledge, and supporting others wherever I can.
Our vision with Evara Muse Collective is to create a fair and inspiring space for all artists — from newcomers to established professionals. A place where we share knowledge, recommend each other, and celebrate our love for creativity.
This project wouldn’t be possible without my two co-founders:
Caro – my right hand
Caro is the brain of our collective. She handles everything behind the scenes with calm precision — from organization to numbers — making sure every project runs smoothly and stress-free.
Sara – my left hand
Sara brings the spark. Bold, creative, and full of energy, she inspires us to think bigger and connect wider. With her artistic talent and her love of teaching, she helps shape the spirit of our collective.
Together, we’re building more than a team. We’re building a true creative family.

We create a safe and inspiring environment where professional development meets personal growth. Through photoshoots, makeup masterclasses, and confidence-building workshops, we provide you with all the tools you need to succeed in the beauty industry.
