History
Established in 1980.
I founded my company, LeTropique, Inc. July 1,1980, in order to provide those who live in tropical climates with products, and a system of application that works well in the heat and humidity. As a matter of fact, I always like to say, "The more you sweat, the better you look,"which has earned me the title "The Tropical Make-Up Expert". What sets me apart from the rest, is that I take pride in my work, and to the best of my ability give the client that clean, fresh look I am so famous for. In 1981 I began to work with celebrities, Raquel each was my first, and now I have a impressive list of notables ranging from sports greats like Dan Marino and Ahmad Rashad, to music icons like Lenny Kravitz and Notorious B-I-G, and political figures such as Jeb Bush, Hillary Clinton, Madeline Albright.
Also, a member of Local 798, Hair & Make-Up Artists Union, NYC since 1991, which allows me to work on major motion pictures and TV shows. CNN & NBC call me regularly for live remotes.
