It’s always a concert or production for me when I’m getting ready. Plus, I just like to entertain myself. I’m a hair flip girl, y’all know how I do 😂 so I need L’Oreal Paris to hold me down. And Queen Janet Jackson would be so proud 🤙🏾🌸🌺
Do y’all remember I use to be a L’Oreal Pro Makeup Artist so I always used L’Oreal hair products. Elnett was my go to hairspray. OMG, the scent, it should be a candle 😂

One For Beauty…Beauty For All…Entitled Beauty
Hey My Fabulous Peeps!!!
Are you looking for a new highlighter that gives a beautiful and radiant glow? Well, I have one just for you. It’s from my makeup line, Entitled Beauty Cosmetics. It’s my favorite “Resting Bitch Face” and I paired it with “Pretentious” to warm up my skin. When I created “Resting Bitch Face” I first wanted it to have a name that would be iconic and I wanted it to be my Best Seller. I knew it would be an item that I would wear everyday and I wanted the color to brighten my face on my full cheeks. Because, I smile a lot I knew on my cheeks you would see that glow.
Below you will find the highlighters & lipsticks colors that I have on. On my lips is another favorite from my All Nighter lip collection called, Yes Bitch” and “Gurl Bye” from the metallic collection. With “Yes Bitch” when I finally was able to apply it on at the lab, the first thing that came out my mouth after checking myself out was “YES BITCH” and I knew that was going to be the name. Because when my Entitled Babe also put it on they were going to say the exact same thing (lmao). So, that’s how I come about with naming my items.
Wednesday at the Inaugaration for President Biden and VP Kamala Harris, the color PURPLE was a choice amongst the ladies. Purple has always been a color of choice for myself due to my health. Being a Lupus and Fibromyalgia Warrior I have always worn purple for strength. It was nice to see the ladies at a special and important events wearing different shades of purple. Each one of these ladies are strong and powerful in their own rights.
As you know I have my own makeup line called Entitled Beauty Cosmetics that I started with my bestie and business partner, Johnny Lumoa. When we were creating colors for our All Nighter Lipstick Collections, I knew that I needed a bold and sassy color for us Autoimmune Warriors. During our Awarness days I wanted all of us warriors to have a lipstick that we could wear. A lipstick color that was created by a warrior, someone who is living with this nasty disease. So, I created “Queen B” and I named it that because it seem to be a name that peers call me.
If you know of anyone with an autoimmune disease and you would like to gift them something special gift them one of my “Queen B” All Nighter Liquid Lipsticks. It would mean a lot to me to support my makeup line Entitled Beauty Cosmetics. I know they would love it to wear on Awarness Day.
When a small online business owner finds out that their makeup is being used on Bravo TV Show Actress and TV Personality can you image what that feeling is like? Honolulu Hawaii Makeup Artist, Brandy Gomez-Duplessis and Ohio Estheticians, Johnny Luoma were both thrill that the ladies from The Real Housewives were wearing their makeup from Entitled Beauty Cosmetics. Being an online brand who is competing with so many makeup companies how can they be receiving this blessing. Just recently their makeup was seeing on Dancing With The Stars and previous at The NBA All Star Weekend in 2019 & 2020.
LA Celebrity Makeup Artist, Adam Christopher who works with many celebrities uses Entitled Beauty Cosmetics and his makeup kit. This brand may not be in beauty stores like Sephora and Ulta or department stores but makeup artists are fans of this brand because of the quality and that its highly pigmented. Quality is very important these days and these two beauty industry owners knows exactly what their clients want. This duo is also know for their fun names (Resting Bitch Face, Yes Bitch, OMG, Zaddy, Call Girl) they wanted to have a few iconic pieces like NARS, TOO Faced and Tom Ford. In it’s looking that they are on their way.
Brandy says, one day their makeup will be a household name. Our fun names are catchy but the quality speaks for itself. We don’t have a celebrity endorsing us but we have the makeup artists and customers, our fans who are buying our makeup. They will continue to speak about how great Entitled Beauty Cosmetics really is and eventually their love for us will spill over to their girlfriends, sisters, brothers, mothers and fathers. Our makeup is for everyone Johnny says. We wanted our makeup to be worn by anyone who love makeup. We don’t discriminate, we know what that is like.
If you’re looking for something this holiday for a makeup lover definitely think of Entitled Beauty Cosmetics. Small business owners need us to stay afloat.
As you know my partner and I love naming our products for our makeup line Entitled Beauty Cosmetics. Because I’m in Hawaii and he’s in Ohio, we FaceTime with each other to meet about names for upcoming makeup items that we’re working on. When we came up with our All Nighter Liquid Lipsticks the song “Savage” by Meg Thee Stallion wasn’t out yet and we came up with the name “Bougie” and “Savage” not knowing that this fabulous young lady will one day have this popular song. It’s so funny that the two shades are lipsticks colors that we could see Meg Thee Stallion actually wearing.
Entitled Beauty Cosmetics All Nighter Liquid Lipsticks are Vibrant, Bold and Luxuriously Soft Matte. Mineral based with 3x the pigment vs. any other liquid lipstick out there today! Entitled Beauty’s liquid lipstick goes on smooth, dries quickly, has a matte finish and is extremely long wearing!
So if you’re a fan of Megan The Stallion do you think Hot Girl Meg would rock these two lipstick shades? Would You? Hope you will give our products a try and let us know if you love wearing Entitled Beauty All Nighter Liquid Lipsticks.
My baby girl Addison Rae, who is well known on social media for dancing on Tik Tok loves dancing and she loves beauty products. Another thing we have in common, she’s a fabulous Libra. I love talking all day to my clients about things we share in common and Addison shared that she’s a major fan of YSL Beauty makeup line and then I showed her products from Entitled Beauty Cosmetics, she was obsessed. Especially the All Nighter Liquid Lipsticks because they are long wearing and not drying to the lips. All weekend I used Entitled Beauty Cosmetics on Addison.
On her lips I used Entitled Beauty, “Savage” All Nighter Liquid Lipstick and YSL Beauty Eyeshadow Palette in Tuxedo. The highlighter I used tonight was Entitled Beauty “Resting Bitch Face” Spotlight Highlighter.
Stay tuned as I share more pics of makeup items I used on Addison.
