Career
Gutierrez first became interested in make-up after watching his mother do her make-up during his childhood.[7] He later worked at Sephora and MAC.[1] He began his YouTube channel in 2014.[7] He regularly posts make-up tutorials, make-up first impressions, and beauty tips.[7] He has collaborated with Makeup Geek on an eye-shadow palette, Ofra Cosmetics on lip products, and Jeffree Star Cosmetics on two highlighters and 2 lipsticks. [8]
In 2017, Gutierrez and fellow YouTuber Shayla Mitchell were announced as brand ambassadors for Maybelline, specifically Colossal Big Shot Mascara.[1][9] He is the first male brand ambassador for the brand.[1][4] He is the second male to be chosen as a spokesperson for a beauty brand after James Charles who had been previously announced as a spokesperson for CoverGirl in October 2016.[1] Later that year, Gutierrez and his ex-friend Jeffree Star announced a collaboration for Star's make-up brand to debut in April.[10] After the announcement, Black Moon Cosmetics sued the duo for copyright and trademark infringement alleging that they had copied their logo without permission.[11] The lawsuit was later resolved.[11] In April 2017, Gutierrez was the only male to make People magazine's annual "Most Beautiful" list.[4][2] In 2018, he was named to Forbes' annual list of "30 under 30" in the Arts and Style category.[2]
In 2018, Manny was announced to star in Escape The Night Season 3 as the Record Producer.
Personal life
Gutierrez grew up in a Mormon family and has two younger brothers.[6][7] He identifies as gay[7] and has described being sent to therapy as a teenager to "reverse the effects of being gay", though he was allowed to stop after six months as he became depressed during the ineffective treatment.[7][8]
Before deciding on a career in beauty, Gutierrez planned to attend medical school with aspirations of becoming a plastic surgeon.[1][8] He has a Bachelor's degree from San Diego State University.[2]
He lives in Los Angeles, California.[4] He has vitiligo.[12]
