Rachel Malkin

Rachel is a Brooklyn-based makeup artist with a deep connection to beauty. Her path began in middle school, where makeup became an outlet for creativity and self-expression while navigating the physical challenges of wearing a back brace for scoliosis. By 14, she was honing her craft in a salon and assisting on weddings, laying the foundation for a career defined by artistry and precision.

Today, Rachel brings her refined touch to brand campaigns, editorials, and special events. Her work spans collaborations with Bon Appétit, Laura Mercier, M.Gemi, Bloomberg Business, GQ, Sensodyne, Dame, Tend, Pawp, and more. She has worked backstage at NYFW shows such as Grace Ling, Padina Bondar, Gabe Gordon and Libertine. Balancing minimalism and boldness, Rachel’s approach ensures every look feels polished, authentic, and uniquely yours.
