Yvette Ponzoa
Born and raised in Miami, Florida, Yvette's love affair with makeup and hair began when, as a child, she painted all of her doll's faces and gave them stylish haircuts (much to her mother's dismay). Beginning in high school, she began doing hair and makeup for friends, family and acquaintances for weddings, special occasions and theater productions. After 17 years of practice, she attended the Cosmix School of Makeup Artistry in 2007 in order to perfect her art. Since then, she has been working as a professional makeup artist for bridal, headshots, portfolio, video, editorial, runway and theater. Her skills include airbrushing, fantasy and special effects makeup. Besides working with brides, photographers and production companies, she has worked for Miami Fashion Week and various shows for the Miami International School of Art and Design.
