Manny MUA

Myy mom is the woman who inspires me the most. She's Latina. She's definitely my Latina inspiration.

At the end of the day, makeup comes off whether you're a man or a woman; why discriminate against men, when makeup is such an amazing form of artistic expression, just because society says it's not 'normal?'

As a child, I would watch my mom get ready for work and just sit there for hours watching her transform. However, it wasn't until much later on that I really started to dabble in makeup myself.

I feel like men in beauty have to work a lot harder just to get credibility, because it's such a women's world.

I think that the social media space is great because that's where my bread and butter is, but I want to jump into doing traditional media and other fun things.

I always thought makeup was a beautiful thing, the transformation of it. If someone felt insecure about something, they could put on concealer, and it would change their entire day.
