About

Christina Amador first discovered her love for makeup while working for MAC cosmetics many years ago. During her time at MAC cosmetics Christina learned to work with every different ethnicity, age, and skin type . She's also had the honor of working with and learning from some of the best in the beauty industry. Mario Dedivanovic ( Kim Kardashian's Makeup Artist) and Mally Roncal ( Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez's makeup artist) . Through working with them closely she has learned the tricks of the trade and the secrets of how to acheive that "Red Carpet" look. She has worked on such celebrities as Catherine Zeta Jones and Sofia Vergara while working in New York City. But setting her apart from other makeup artists in the industry, Christina also volunteers her time to different charities, offering makeovers to women in need to help build their self-confidence. She has had the pleasure of working New York's Fashion Week, The Rachel Ray show, QVC, Project Runway, O Magazine, and various other commercial and editorial work. She is also the featured makeup artist in her friend Randy Fenoli's (of Say Yes to the Dress Fame) book, It's "All About The Dress".

Christina loves everything to do with weddings and holds a special place for them in her heart. She was once a bride also, and truly knows the importance of that magical day. She takes her time and works personally with each of her brides to acheive their signature look for their walk down the aisle.

I can't rave enough about the amazing job Christina did, from my trials to my actual wedding day. As soon as I met her and had her do a run-through, I knew instantly that I wanted to book her. Not only is Christina incredibly talented and knows exactly what to do to make everyone look beyond gorgeous, she has a warmth that radiates through her personality that makes you feel like you're hanging out with your best friend. It's the perfect energy to be surrounded by on your big day. Christina was responsive throughout the booking process as we finalized details and handled not just myself but seven bridesmaids and two moms with ease and flexibility. EVERY SINGLE ONE of the girls told me how much they loved her and honestly, they looked more beautiful than I had ever seen them. We've already decided that Christina will be our first call when my sister gets engaged and sets a date, and I can't wait to work with her again. My family hasn't stopped talking about how great she was! Christina made me feel amazing and I truly felt like I walked away from my wedding with her as a friend - not just a vendor. You can't find a better MUA out there!

The absolute best!

I first met Christina through my sister in law at her wedding and loved her so much that I had to have her for my own wedding! I got married on 9/7 and had Christina do my makeup. She also brought a 2nd makeup artist to help with my large group of bridesmaids who was equally as wonderful! I cannot recommend Christina enough! She not only is amazing at doing makeup but she makes the whole experience so enjoyable! She is punctual and professional. She kept on schedule and finished everyone with ample amount of time to spare. I didn’t feel stressed at all for time while getting ready. She made me and my girls feel so comfortable and took the time to listen to each of us and create what we wanted. She truly made me feel beautiful on my wedding day! She is such a positive person and you can’t help but smile and have a good time around her. She was the perfect person to have around in what can be a very chaotic time for a bride. I hope we get to work together again in the future!

Wonderful Person and Amazing Artist!

We cannot rave enough about Christina - her energy is infectious and her work is stunning! My wife first met Christina as a bridesmaid in another wedding a few years ago, and I could not imagine hiring anyone else for our own big day. Our bridesmaids loved her too, including my friend who is very particular about how her makeup looks. Another friend called her an "Earth Angel" and I definitely agree. Not to mention, everyone looked gorgeous all evening long! She was so easygoing and completely covered an unfortunate blemish situation of mine - I was blown away with her artistry. She is truly a rockstar and we would highly recommend!

I've now worked with Christina on several weddings and she just keeps coming. It's always a pleasure working with her, she's fun, exciting and puts her full on passion at work on the wedding day. She makes my brides look beautiful, which makes me (the button pusher) focus on capturing the story so easy. She's so easy to work with during prep, I wish I can just put her into my camera bag. We always have an awesome time working together. Christina is simply the best.
