Celebrity Makeup Artist Jackie Sanchez Interview with Marta Walsh

Celebrity Makeup Artist Jackie Sanchez does make up for Tyra Banks, Alek Wek and Kimora Lee.

In this interview, Jackie Sanchez talks to Marta Walsh about her first breaks as a makeup artist, makeup philosophy, working with supermodel Alek Wek and tips to getting her look, what can we find in her makeup bag, and future plans.


Jackie Sanchez

Marta Walsh: When did your fascination with makeup begin?
Jackie Sanchez: When I was 10 years old my brother got me a makeup kit called Scandia. It had eyeshadow, blush, lipstick, mascara, the works. I still remember opening that first box full of lipsticks!

MW: How did you get your first big break as a makeup artist?
JS: There are so many exciting times that I can remember. I would have to say working with legendary author Toni Morrison opened many doors for me. Traveling with her, accompanying her on book tours, meeting the television elite such as Katie Couric, Diane Sawyer, and Charlie Rose, has been so exciting.

MW: What is your makeup philosophy?
JS: I definitely believe in “less is more”. If you have nice skin why cover it up with heavy foundation and powder. Makeup should enhance your beauty.

MAC Peppermint Patti Nail Polish

In my recent Avon lip colors video giveaway I wore MAC Nail Polish in Peppermint Patti, which happens to be my absolute favorite lately. 

Here is a photo from my video to demonstrate (btw-I’m holding Avon Spectra Color Lipstick):

MAC Sugarsweet collection, described as Creamy mint green (Cream).

MAC Peppermint Patti Nail Polish is a minty or almost aquatic shade which looks great by the beach or by the pool in the summer.

Actually, many of Talking Makeup’s viewers gave me compliments and loved my nails all lacquered up in MAC Peppermint Patti. Thank you guys! You are the BEST:)
