Karina is a New York-based makeup artist. Her masterful command of color and expertise with skin can be seen in a broad range of styles, from dewy, glowing skin, to bold, graphic looks that show off her penchant for creativity and unexpected color combos. Karina cares deeply about representation of trans and non-binary people in the beauty industry, and her boundary-breaking approach can be seen in the unconventional way she experiments with light, color, and shadow.

Her work has appeared in numerous top fashion publications including British Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, and Chaos 69, and her celebrity clientele includes Venus Williams, Bailey Bass, Diana Silvers, Amirah Vann, and Carolina Gaitan. Additionally, Karina collaborates with an eclectic roster of brands such as Thom Browne, Shiseido, VICE, Brandon Blackwood, Julep Beauty, New Balance, and Nick Jr.
