I can't believe it's Essence Music Festival 20th Anniversary! I remember it like yesterday when I was living in New Orleans and received a called from Essence Magazine. Sander Martin called me about using my makeup service for Susan Taylor.
I've been working doing makeup for Essence Music Festival since. I've only missed 3 festivals. Not to bad...as always around this time I get additional calls about booking my makeup services. I get an assistant to help with my schedule while I'm traveling or working. It get really crazy and I luv every minute of it!
I love this time of year because I get to return home, see family, friends, & peers. Plus create fab makeup looks in build new business relationships. I'll visit a few gifting suites on my down time so I can share with my readers all the goodies I find on my BEAUTY HAPPY HOUR section.
I have to go...beauty calls!!!
