ABOUT MARIA

      I have been in the beauty industry professionally since 2005. Like many young girls, I began my passion for makeup and hair artistry by playing beauty salons with my cousins and friends. In those moments, I realized my passion for bringing out the best features in a person with a quick liner, red lipstick, and a high ponytail.

I began my career as a Professional Makeup Artist with Jerica Productions, serving as the Key Makeup Artist for productions including Rent, Jekyll & Hyde, and Company. I actively participated in various seminars to stay up-to-date with the latest makeup and hair trends. I gained valuable experience working with reputable companies like Sephora LVMH and Mac Cosmetics and training and working with brands such as Nars, Anastasia, Givenchy, and Make Up For Ever. 

My makeup kit contains a variety of brands, including luxury, vegan, and paraben-free products, to meet my clients' makeup preferences. These products perform well in humid conditions and are suitable for HD photography. I enjoy hosting beauty seminars, pop-up salons and pampering parties with close friends in my free time. I am always looking for opportunities to work with organizations that embody women empowerment ( all types), beauty and self-expression.

My clients are at the heart of what I do. I deeply value each and every one of them and always strive to give my best. It is an honor for me that they trust me to prepare them for their special day, and I am committed to ensuring they look and feel their best.

There's no one-size-fits-all definition when is comes to being Beautiful. Your unique perception is what makes you shine. That's the heart of BEAUTIFUL BY MARIA.

Looking forward to meeting you!

XoXo,

Maria
