Spencer Hedges on Choosing to Get a Facelift, Fatherhood, and Mental Health
3/27/202633 min
This week, we’re joined by Spencer Hedges — aka Painted by Spencer — the self-taught Cuban-American makeup artist turned global beauty creator known for his incredible before-and-afters and beautiful, cinematic content. Spencer shares how he went from moving to LA at 16 to building a multi-platform empire. We talk about high-production content in a lo-fi era, the influence of his Cuban heritage, and what he’s learned from teaching masterclasses around the world. Spencer also opens up about becoming a father through IVF, getting candid about his mental health, and yes… a recent “refresh.” Plus, we end with rapid-fire takes on makeup musts and misses.
