Mara Chen
Hair & makeup artist · New York







I create camera-ready hair and makeup for editorials, campaigns and runway, and I have been part of Elena's shoot team since her first New York lookbook.
Hello, I'm Mara Chen, a hair & makeup artist from New York
My approach is skin first: a fresh, polished base that holds up under studio lighting and high-resolution retouching. From a soft everyday look to a bold editorial eye, I build every look around your brief.
I arrive with a fully sanitized kit and a detailed look sheet, and I stay on set for touch-ups and quick changes between looks, so the camera never has to wait.
Pair me with Elena, Sofia or Ava for a complete team, or book me directly for your own models and talent.
