About

Hello! My name is Ken Martinez. I am a professional make-up artist with 4 years under my belt. My passion for makeup started in my high school art classes. I loved to draw and paint and decided to try “painting” on a face/canvas. A couple months into it and I decided to continue with make-up and loved it ever since! I am a self-taught artist and worked with MAC Cosmetics for 4 years. I specialize in beauty make-up from Bridal to Editorial/Runway and Special FX. I also do special event make-up ranging from Proms/Dances, Sweet Sixteens/Quinceañeras and Film/TV.

Make-up for me has always been about making you feel YOUR best and enhancing YOUR inner and outer beauty!

Thank you for visiting my profile and I hope you keep me in mind for your big day!

Amazing!

Ken is exactly what you need to make your wedding day feel stress free. Punctuality is so important to me not only was he early but he was ready to go as soon ash walked through the door. He took time on each of my bridesmaids, my mom and my mother in law. He even made time to work in my two cousins who were on their way to Sephora to get their makeup done. He matched each look with each personality while keeping us in the same wedding. I never felt so beautiful and attended to. He was absolutely one of the highlights of my wedding. If you want to look elegant and sexy Ken does it, with ease!

Amazing Trial!

Not knowing much about makeup I was ready to go with the 1st person I had a trial with. I thought as long as it looked ok that would be good enough. My MOH however, pointed me in the direction of Ken. I am so thankful she did. Ken was very kind and professional and he listened to me about what I wanted and I didn't feel badgered when he offered suggestions. When my face was finished I felt so emotional, I could see my wedding day, me in a my dress, walking down the aisle and I didn't get that feeling with the 1st trial. Thank you for making me feel like a super model!

Ken is amazing!

I had several unsuccessful trials before Ken came to my rescue! With ease, he was able to create the desired look that other artists had failed to produce. He was patient and attentive to understand my requests. He took the time to assess my skin type and peruse his vast array of quality products to consider the best approach for me and each person in my bridal party. While his sequence and application techniques vary from person to person, the result is always a flawlessly luminous finish that lasts through the night. Ken is as kind as he is talented, a truly calming presence on a day that can be stressful. When I look back at the photos, I’m so grateful to him for making everyone look so beautiful.
I love Ken and his work so much that I’ve hired him several times since my wedding for parties and galas. He is au courant with the ever-expanding industry styles, perfectly mimicking pictures from magazines or offering his expert recommendation based on the occasion and called for attire. If you’re seeking elegant and timeless, trendy and bold, or somewhere in between, Ken does it all! He even provides gift cards for his services! I was beyond thrilled to receive one from my Mom for Christmas. I can’t wait to use it!

Ken was very welcoming and kind. He got into depth of discovering exactly the kind of look I wanted to go for and executed the entire makeover perfectly. I was so impressed with the finish look because I am a very picky person when it comes to getting my makeup done by others. Hands down one of the most talented artist I ever went too. Blending skills on level 100.
for sure recommend him.

If you want to look and feel gorgeous

Ken made me look and feel gorgeous! He asked a lot of questions to find out what I want, expect, like, and dislike. My makeup trial went smoothly as did one of my bridesmaids. We both left very happy with the results. He is talented!
