Mendoza Makeup · New York City
For nights that matter, makeup should feel intentional—never rushed, never uncertain. Mendoza Makeup offers professional makeup services for events and special occasions where you want to look confident, camera-ready, and unmistakably yourself.
Event makeup is tailored to the occasion, environment, and you.
Each service begins with a brief consultation to understand:
The event or setting
Your personal style and comfort level
Wardrobe, lighting, and timing
How you want to feel—not just how you want to look
Makeup is designed to wear comfortably, photograph well, and hold throughout the event.
Jorge’s background as a premier drag artist provides an elevated technical foundation, especially for clients who will be photographed, filmed, or under dramatic lighting.
Depending on the occasion, techniques may include:
Long-wear complexion design
Strategic contour and balance

Optional subtle face taping for lift and structure
All techniques are adapted to suit the client and event—never excessive, always refined.
