Shake Your Beauty:Ambush Makeover

The first day of Essence Magazine, Essence Music Festival we did a fun Ambush Makeover. Essence.com beauty editor Tia Williams selected a young girl that was going to attend the concert with her girlfriends that evening. Hairstylist & Owner Maisha Teacher of Bibi Salon in Harlem gave her a fun and easy hairstyle with a braid on the side. Because she wanted a sexy makeup look I gave her dark eyes using midnight blue eyeshadow. I kept her blush and lips soft. A quick and easy makeup look that any girl could wear.

Pre Essence Music Festival

 I started my EMF weekend doing makeup on one of the ladies from Essence Magazine. When I was told that Mikki Taylor, Editor-at-Large requested me once again I was ecstatic. She needed makeup for the private reception on Thursday evening. Mikki is an icon, a jet setter, an insightful visionary, an industry leader, a phenomenal woman, and most of all she oozes beauty.
The highlight of the evening was receiving a personal call from Mikki to return back to the hotel. She invited up the penthouse to chat amongst friends. It was one of the best experiences ever.
There have been many times when people will  say to me, “why weren’t you in the club?” or “we didn’t see you backstage”. But where I was that evening,  is where a person in my career should have been and was privileged to be. This is how I kicked off my…ESSENCE MUSIC FESTIVAL.
