About this listen

Marta Bota is a creator of looks, confidence, and moments. She has spent nearly four decades as a professional makeup artist helping people show up as their best selves—on stage, on camera, and in life. She has also spent decades as a community advocate and philanthropist. Marta has rocked the crowns of both Virginia and D.C., stepping into her first pageant at 51. That’s when our paths first crossed.

On this pod episode, Marta drops by the studio to share her story, from being pursued as a teenager for modeling opportunities to her fascination with behind-the-scenes work, ultimately serving as a makeup artist with CNN for 19 years. From world leaders to iconic entertainers, Marta has had some of the world's most prominent personalities in her chair. Marta shares her evolution into the world of makeup artistry, how she approaches her business, and the care she takes towards each client to ensure their look matches the moment.

Marta Bota doesn’t just enhance faces—she amplifies people. Her blend of artistry, heart, and business reminds us what beauty really is: showing up real, bold, and unapologetically you.
