BIO

With over 21 years of experience as a makeup artist, Kiya Lee’s talent for surfacing beauty is known worldwide. From high profile fashion print ads to commercials for Fortune 500 companies, Kiya knows it all—including English, Korean and Japanese (she speaks all three)—and esthetics and makeup (she’s a graduate of the esteemed Yvonne de Vilar School and a member of I.A.T.S.E. Union 665 and I.B.E.W. Union 1260).

Though she often travels to places throughout Europe, Asia and the U.S. for jobs, Kiya currently lives in the beautiful state of Hawaii, where she’s chosen to focus her skills to service fashion, commercial and bridal clientele.
