Estée Artist Jocelyn Biga is a self-taught makeup artist with over 15 years’ experience. Her love of makeup began as a child, learning to do her own makeup for modeling and beauty pageants. That practice led her to begin her career with Estée Lauder in 2001, where she rose from Beauty Advisor to educator, and then transitioned into makeup artistry full-time. She is fluent in both English and Spanish, and, thanks to her bilingual background, her work has appeared on television segments for The Today Show and Telemundo alike. Her artistry has also been featured in the pages of ELLE and Glamour, online for The Knot, and more.
