Makeup By Carmen Orduño

Makeup Artist

My name is Carmen Orduño, I am a certified freelance makeup artist in Phoenix, AZ. My passion and love for makeup began at an early age while watching and learning from other professionals and attending various makeup classes including Smashbox and MAC Cosmetics training, and I haven't been able to put a brush down ever since! In addition, I received personalized one-on-one PRO makeup training from Patty Valenzuela in Sonora, Mexico where I received my PRO makeup certification.

Whether you are looking for a soft natural or dramatic glamorous look, I guarantee you will fall in love with your makeup. Not only will it look amazing, it will last for hours on end! I am passionate about enhancing your natural beauty while providing you with top quality service and a look that is picture perfect. My standard begins with using high-quality products including Temptu (airbrush), Makeup Forever, MAC, Urban Decay, and Laura Mercier to name a few. I utilize the latest and greatest makeup techniques as I continue to elevate my skills by taking new training courses as they become available.

    Carmen is an AMAZING makeup artist! She did makeup for myself, wedding party and mother's of the bride/groom. Everyone raved about how they looked (no cake face!) and felt. The makeup lasted throughout the day and most of the night. She was great at listening to what everyone liked/did not like and had great recommendations for those who normally do not wear makeup. Her prices were very reasonable. Carmen was an absolute BLAST to work with. I am so happy to have stumbled upon Carmen, she truly made me feel beautiful on my wedding day.

    Carmen and her team were beyond amazing! We did a destination wedding in Sedona, AZ. Even though we had a 730am start time and it's a 2 hour drive from Phoenix, Carmen and her team arrived early and ready to go. They did the bridesmaid, moms and my hair and makeup. One of my bridesmaids said 'I'll never look this good again in my life,' which was hilarious, but we all felt that way. Our makeup stayed fresh looking all day, but still looked natural. You won't be disappointed by Carmen!!
