had the pleasure of glamming selina up for her engagement photos - loved the look we did! soft glam is my go-to, and favorite, look to do on clients, if ya can’t tell😉🖤

Instagram vs. Reality!😂the first photo is me (hi, if you’re new here!) standing in front of a window with natural light (the best selfie light, FYI - always face the window), makeup done, hair done, jewelry on, Paris filter swiped over my face to reduce any little wrinkles or blemishes...and then the second photo is what I look like more than 90% of the time! zero makeup (peep the darkness under my eyes when i don’t wear concealer and pores on my face), hair thrown into a messy bun (per usual), facing away from the window (the worst way to take a photo lol), and AirPods in, listening to Lennon Stella as I work on a massive, tedious project in Microsoft Excel! Just figured I would keep things transparent and show the “real me” next to the “going out to dinner with friends on Saturday night” me!😌❤️

Y’all ain’t ready for Busola’s before and after😍🔥😍🔥truly loved doing her makeup this past weekend for her updated professional headshots! A little background on this story...
.
I received a phone call this past week, asking if I had availability to do a woman’s sister’s makeup on Saturday (the sister was Busola). I told the woman I could squeeze her sister in for an appointment Saturday morning. We figured out the timing, payment, etc. and then she said she had one more question…
.
“Are you able to do makeup on Black women? Do you have the experience and the right products to do so?”
.
I replied yes to both - I have experience and an entire range of any and all products I need to work on the palest white skin to the deepest black. Now - a few things to say on this...
.
1. The phone call with my client’s sister this past week made me realize that I REALLY need to do a better job at taking more client photos - particularly Black and POC client photos. So many times, I am in a rush and either forget or don’t have time to snap a few photos of my work - but I need to do a better job at that. There could be many people that look at my website portfolio or Instagram page and think that I only do makeup on white people, because that is 99% of what they are seeing. Shame on me for that.
.
2. If you are a makeup artist, or an aspiring makeup artist, please do this - make sure you are experienced and comfortable doing makeup on skin tones that are not just the same as yours. You will feel extremely embarrassed one day if you are in a situation where you don’t know what you’re doing, and the person in the chair, I can assure you, will be upset. Also...be sure you have products in your kit that are not just for light/medium/tan skin tones. You need it all, sis. Purchase really deep concealers and foundations and powders and bronzers and blushes and lipliners and lipsticks - do not assume you will always be doing work on white people (if you are a white person). The amount of times I have glanced at other MUAs kits just to see a sea of white products…(no shade, just saying)...
.
Anyways...MUCH LOVE to all! xoxo🤍🤎🖤🤍🤎🖤
