Look Behind The Look

Ellen Arden is a makeup department head who knows her way around a  Marvel Studio... and a Netflix Studio.  She can make Maya Hawke look glamorous and execute editorial trends on Camela Mendes in Do Revenge on Netflix, and then create terrifying looks on the otherwise adorable Gael García Bernal in Werewolf By Night.  Listen as she breaks down her most memorable creations and takes me through her career and the unexpected twists and turns she took to arrive in the makeup trailer of the biggest studios and networks in the industry.
