Exerpt from her blog: http://mariaortegamakeup.blogspot.com/p/about-me.html
“Maria Ortega is a self taught, freelance makeup artist based in NYC. Originally from California, Maria moved to New York to pursue her dream of becoming an established makeup artist. From a young age, Maria developed love for color, painting and makeup. Her inspiration is her mother whom she observed in awe as a child as she applied makeup and owes her love for makeup to her mother.
Although Maria has no formal training in makeup or hair, she has worked in almost all facets of makeup. She has done makeup for numerous brides, fashion shows, special events and is constantly working with agency represented models and professional fashion photographers. Besides doing traditional makeup Maria also offers airbrush makeup application and feels more than comfortable working with men and women of all skin tones, types, colors and ethnic backgrounds.
Maria’s icons in makeup are her mother and the late, Kevyn Aucoin.”
Here are a few of Maria’s works:

Amber Rose is branching out into the music world and we’re excited to announce we’ll be Exclusively premiering her first single! The highly anticipated song is called Fame and features her boyfriend, Grammy nominated Wiz Khalifa on the track. Check back with us this Tuesday, January 10th at 9AM EST as we release Amber’s first (and hopefully not last) music single. We can’t wait to share it with you all! Remember…. Tuesday, January 10, at 9AM EST. Ch-ch-check it out! (Perez Hilton)
“I’m so excited to release my first song… It’s CRAZY! Working with Wiz is a dream come true; I am fortunate to have his support. This is a very personal song to me that I wanted to record for my fans. I want people to see the world from my eyes, you know, from BEHIND MY SHADES! It’s my interpretation of what it means to be “FAMOUS,” which is not something superficial but instead being self-confident and happy with who you are. You can feel famous everyday if you believe in yourself! (Perez Hilton)
“I showed Wiz some things I’d written down and he really encouraged me to pursue it,” she admits almost shyly. “I’m taking this really seriously – I even quit smoking just so I could improve my voice.” Her features tighten momentarily then relax with a careless shrug. “I already know when the first single drops the haters will have their own opinions, but my fans (almost 900,000 strong on Twitter who she refers to as her “rosebuds” and “rosestuds”) will be there for me.” (Style Caster)
