I am a New York based hair & makeup artist, co-founder of Beauty Icon NYC. My interest in makeup began when I was young. I was super insecure in my own skin and wanted to hide every imperfection of mine. Little did I know then, that these imperfections heal, as well as make us who we are. I grew more confident in my own skin and decided that I wanted to make others feel beautiful too. I have over 7 years experience in the industry with 3 years teaching at Nina Mua makeup school. I believe everyone is beautiful in their own way and my focus is on enhancing n enhancing the natural beauty while creating picture perfect clean looks.

I’m Paulina! I am married to my best friend, John! We got engaged after 8 months of dating and ever since have been inseparable. We have the sweetest baby boy, Jayden, after going through IVF (one of the hardest things I ever had to do besides breastfeeding!) and we have the craziest, most loving dog named Ollie who helped us through it all. Being a mom, I want to be able to spend more time exploring the world with my boys instead of doing household chores. On this page, I want to share with you my secrets on how I manage to do it all: From how to keep a clean, organized home, be comfortable in your own skin, meal prep like a pro, and be a stylish mama all at the same time. I like to keep it real and honest so come be a part of my journey . I would love to have you!
