Since childhood, Mayná has been passionate about the world of makeup and beauty – stylish by birth, she had fun putting on lipstick, wearing perfume and playing with makeup. She was born on a Carnival Sunday in Brazil, a day full of joy and colors!
Fast forward as a teenager, after moving to Spain at the age of 13, she used to do makeup for herself and her friends to go partying.
At the age of 24, she discovered the world of makeup in a professional way and gave up everything, leaving her job and stability to fight for her dream.
Early in her career, she already worked with different photographers, models, model agencies and magazines in Barcelona.
Then, in 2012, she moved to Switzerland and completely transformed both her personal and professional life; neither the new language nor the cultural differences made her give up on her dream.
In 2014 she became self-employed as a makeup artist and hairstylist, and in 2016 she opened her own make-up school (Make-up Beauty Academy) and her Fashion Brand (The KODE).
During these years she has worked for magazines, video clips, advertising, has specialized in bridal beauty, took international courses, as well as participated and led makeup teams for different designers and fashion shows, including the NYFW.
And all of that being the mother of two little boys!
Mayná’s focus is not only to become a great professional but to help other people achieve that dream as well.
