Make up artist Robbie Minjarez created Meki’s smoldering cat eyes, adding edgy intensity for a modern twist on traditional eyeliner. “Minjarez’ eye make up plays with Meki’s sexuality and femininity,” says Paul. “She’s both strong and seductive, the ultimate business woman meets femme fatale.” Paul is clearly at ease collaborating with Gomez, Yu, Tseng and Minjarez. “Together, we started with a simple vision of iconic Chinatown and female power, and grew this vision into a complete narrative arc,” says Paul. “Working with Gomez, Yu, Tseng and Minjarez was an incredible collaborative experience. Our creative visions all came together perfectly to create this story.”
