Benjamin Puckey Family Details
Benjamin Puckey has kept his family’s details private because he appears to be a reserved person who dislikes having personal information in the spotlight.
Benjamin is the Global Color Director for Japanese beauty brand Clé de Peau Beauté, and his recent celebrity clients include Uma Thurman and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Puckey always asked any lady he met if she had lipstick and then asked if he could see it when he was a kid.
It appeared miraculous in some ways: the smell, the color, the gloss, and then to be able to smear it on a face. Then Benjamin remembered that someone at the theater had given him a bag of theater makeup, which his parents had to take away from him because he had messed it up.
