Precision-Driven Beauty Solutions
Welcome! Iām Natalia, a New York City and New Jersey-based licensed esthetician and makeup artist with a passion for beauty, color theory, and refined, personalized artistry.
My connection to makeup began at a young age. My immigrant father worked as a sanitation worker on Fifth Avenue in New York City and would occasionally bring home discarded makeup products. I became fascinated by the beauty and potential in things others had overlooked-a perspective that continues to shape my approach to beauty today.
After initially pursuing a degree in finance and working in corporate roles, I followed my creative instincts into the beauty industry. I earned my esthetics license from Artistic Academy in New Jersey and became a Color Specialist through the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), studying color theory through fashion and design.
I currently work as a licensed esthetician at the 111SKIN Spa at The Plaza Hotel in New York City, where I bring a meticulous attention to detail and an appreciation for luxury skincare and personalized client care. I continue to expand my artistry through assisting established makeup artists, attending industry masterclasses, and gaining hands-on experience across the beauty industry.
Today, I combine skincare expertise, color theory, and professional makeup artistry to create thoughtful, individualized looks for bridal clients, special events, editorial photoshoots, and commercial projects.
My philosophy is simple: beauty is both a science and an art-a balance of technical precision, creativity, and enhancing what makes each person unique.
