Nena Mondonedo Perez, the woman behind Nena Cosmetics
Lorena “Nena” Mondonedo-Perez is the founder and CEO of Nena Cosmetics by Nena Brands. A Chicago-based international beauty company. She discovered her talent in beauty cosmetics at a young age.
After graduating from Business Administration, she pursued special training to become a certified makeup artist under MAC cosmetics and a state-certified esthetician.
Lorena “Nena” Mondoñedo – Perez was born in the Philippines. Like her father, Nena is also an entrepreneur. She realized the need for specialized makeup for Filipinos.
However, it did not stop there. After traveling in other countries, diversity inspired her to create a unique makeup line that’s best for the “morena” and those with a darker complexion.
Today, Nena Brands has a wide collection of innovative lipsticks, shadows, foundations, and face powders, including the “Patricia Collection” by NENA Cosmetics.
Nena Cosmetics is opening soon in Chicago.
