Make it up jes

Hello, my name is Jesua Olvera Jaramillo, and I'm a professional makeup artist. Originally from the Bay Area, I moved to Los Angeles 8 years ago. My specialty lies in film, where I've gained extensive experience working on feature films, shorts, commercials, music videos, and live events.

I thrive on the challenges of my work, always aiming to create something truly unique. As a certified makeup artist and licensed aesthetician, I'm a proud alumna of the Westmore Academy of Cosmetic Arts. Since 2006, I've been freelancing in makeup artistry, covering a wide range of expertise including beauty, men's grooming, hair styling, and special effects.

Understanding the nuances of lighting and its impact on actors' appearances is a key aspect of my craft. I collaborate closely with directors, breaking down scripts to craft the perfect look for each character.

Having worked with diverse skin types—Asian, African American, Caucasian—my experience is deeply rooted in the rich cultural tapestry of San Francisco.

Every day, I embrace opportunities to learn new skills and share my knowledge with others, especially when it comes to skincare and makeup techniques. I find immense joy in the art of transformation, whether it's making someone look better, different, or even eccentric. Ultimately, capturing that final image is always rewarding.

I look forward to continuing my journey in this dynamic and creative industry, where every project brings new possibilities and challenges.
