ABOUT CRYSTAL CARMEN, MUA & FORMULATOR

Crystal Carmen is a former plus model and the leading woman behind Pink Stiletto Cosmetics, an independently owned makeup brand. Crystal is also a professional makeup artist and educator with a genuine passion for science who founded the company in 2010.

When Pink Stiletto Cosmetics was born, it originally focused on just high performance and high quality color. In 2011 as Crystal grew more eco-conscious in her own life, the brand began to follow suit. Over time she began formulating high pigment makeup with natural and organic based ingredients.>

Today Pink Stiletto Cosmetics is proud to be a 95% organic & natural collection that still offers show-stopping color and performance without any animal testing. It is Crystal’s personal mission to provide makeup that delivers everything you want without sacrificing quality or using unnecessary fillers and additives all in an enviroment that feels like your out with your friends. Her motto and the brands slogan say it all:

Life’s Better in Pink

While Crystal absolutely loves makeup her passion for art doesn't stop with beauty. Since her youth she adored clothing and developed her own eclectic style including making her own recon clothing. Friends and family loved her style and encouraged her to pursue it a a career. Crystal applied to Fashion Institute of Technology. After her portfolio was rejected Crystal changed courses and stood quietly behind the scenes building a brand as a professional makeup artist. Makeup and fashion go hand in hand and the calling for design and style could not be ignored any longer. Crystal Carmen not taking no for an answer, became the founder of the first ever Black Tie Luxury and Couture Fashion Gala featuring sizes 8+. Pink The Runway 2015 was heled in Philadelphia and set a new bar for curvy and plus fashion. Crystal is currently expanding her monthly beauty class Contoured and Flawless and prepping for the preview opening of her makeup showroom in Aston, PA.
