Erika Aguirre is a Tucson-based professional lash and makeup Artist with 10 years of experience from graduating from beauty school, working internships, furthering her education with certifications, and an impactful journey with Sephora.
Erika has loved all things beauty and makeup since high school, being that one friend who would get everyone dolled up for prom. After graduating high school, she moved back home to California and enrolled in beauty school. She accepted an on-set hair and makeup artist internship for a Persian TV Show in Santa Monica during that time.
After graduating from beauty school, she returned to Arizona and accepted a seasonal position with Sephora. What started out as a temporary milestone shaped into an impactful 5-year run, including being Tucson’s first Senior Artist, training and facilitating cluster training to new artists in her district, and educating in mass-audience settings. Erika has also worked for Heather Van Houten Makeup & Hair, specializing in bridal makeup for all of Southern Arizona.
In addition to her makeup artist (and teaching/educating) certifications through Sephora and Hollywood Showcase, Erika is a 4x lash certified in Classic, Russian Volume, and Mega Volume lashes and Ombré powder brows. This past year, Erika has expanded her knowledge even further and now offers Fine line tattoos, Spray Tans, and a Lash Educator course to offer only the finest lash curriculum in the Tucson area.
“I absolutely love the ability that makeup and lashes allow me to enhance someone’s natural beauty. I love the confidence it gives others; having people feel good about themselves is everything to me!”
As of August 2021, Erika and her sister have opened a small Aesthetics-only salon at 7493 N. Oracle Rd Suite 130.
Erika offers in-studio services as well as On-site Bridal makeup services.
