Clara Samuel is a professional makeup artist based in Barcelona, with deep roots in New York City's fashion and beauty scene. She holds a BBA in Strategic Design and Management from Parsons The New School, where she spent four years building her practice alongside photographers, stylists, and designers in one of the world's most demanding creative environments.
Her agency experience includes working with GlamSquad NYC, where she served a diverse clientele including celebrity clients, sharpening her technique across beauty, glam, and editorial work. Her portfolio spans New York Fashion Week runways, magazine editorials, and international campaigns. Her work has been featured in 17:23 Magazine and Galio Magazine Spain.
