“I have loved beauty for as long as I can remember. As a little girl, my favorite thing was playing with makeup, and as I grew up, I worked at a makeup counter and eventually as a makeup artist.”

She told HOLA! USA: “I was able to see the power of beauty firsthand and how it can transform you from the inside out and empower you. From that moment on, I knew that I wanted my very own beauty line.
