Makeup Haven


Growing up in Southern California, Kristie Menendez began her love
for makeup and the “natural look” at the age of 8. When her motherʼs
friends would come over she would help to redo their eyeshadow
blush, and lipstick before they could even visit her mother. Her love
of beauty only grew, and at 15, Kristie began taking classes with Sebastian
Internationalʼs makeup line, Trucco Cosmetics.

Today Kristie owns Makeup Haven and has built an amazing clientele full of celebrities, professionals, agencies and directors, and a wide range of women from all walks of life. Sheʼs the epitome of creating beautiful natural makeup, elegance, style, and avant-garde editorial.

Kristie makes it her priority to ensure her clients not only look beautiful, but also have the knowledge, ability, and confidence to replicate what sheʼs shown them. Whether itʼs going shopping with her clients or finding the perfect makeup for them, Kristie will make sure her clients feel and know they truly look their best.
