For the past 3 years, I have offered this membership and every year I am trying to perfect it and fine tune it, and get it just right! I started the program to help women understand the concept that makeup artistry is offered as a service, just like getting your hair and nails done. Many women, whether professional business women, women in the public eye, socialites or mother's, wives, of prestigious men have a need to keep their image as Flawless as possible.The package is an investment into your image. Professional makeup is the finishing touch that completes the look of a woman who as it all together. Or it definitely makes her look that way! ;) 

My members have grown spoiled into having their makeup done for every occasion! Date night's with hubby, dinner with girlfriends, play dates with their children's friends and their families, exclusive parties, and countless other occasions. The beauty of it is that they can call  on me when they want to feel and look Flawless, no matter the occasion. And husband's and boyfriend's thank me too, not only because my clients are beautiful, but because their whole attitude's change when they feel Flawless! I never get tired of hearing a client tell me about the compliment's that their mates give them, when they leave the studio...there is no greater value than feeling the way you want to feel! 

The Flawless Makeup Art experience is nothing close to your local makeup counter! It's an experience with a makeup artist who knows not only what works best for you, but cares about how you want to feel. A private studio with time set aside just for you. Calm, pleasant fragrance, and decor all come together to create an experience only offered at Flawless Makeup Art Studio. Allow me to share my gifts with you! Flawless Makeup Art Membership Program is the only way to stay Flawless...for more than a day!

Here's to a Flawless 2013!!!

Another Year is upon us! I am excited, inspired and filled with gratitude! Ready to use the lessons of last year to appreciate the blessings in the new one!  One of the things I am most thankful for is what I have been able to achieve by operating in my gift. 

In the beginning stages, I thought it was just something I was good at. Then I gave myself a little more credit, and could admit that I was talented. Now, at 7 years strong, I can confidently say that  doing makeup is something that I am gifted with.  I can say this because, it  has given so much back to me. It feeds my body and my spirit, has allowed me to meet so many wonderful people and blessed me with opportunities that I dreamed about and has allowed me to help people in the most interesting ways.  It has been a challenging journey, but it has made me a strong woman. Even when I've tried, it never let’s me give up...only a product of God can do that. This year,  I want to truly express my appreciation to everyone who has contributed to my movement and the growth of my brand!  Whether  it was an appointment booked, or kind word exchanged...a referral  or  even a cancellation. Thank you for helping me to evolve.

I look forward to sharing more of my art with you this year! Classes, Events, Blogs and more!

2012 is here...A year of limitless possibilities!

So I haven't updated this blog in quite some time... I've actually been having a love affair with Tumblr (www.tumblr.com/theflawlesslife), and he has certainly swept me off my feet! Lol! But I couldn't continue to just move on and not acknowledge the past.

This has also been a consistent theme entering the new year. Our past has purpose...ignoring it, suppressing it, or running from it only prolongs dealing with an issue. And until it is truly dealt with, we can count on it to resurface. I am learning to appreciate frustrating moments, for this is where the growth happens. If everything was pleasant all the time, how would we ever really be able to recognize or appreciate the beauty in those moments? I have made a huge effort to study myself in 2011, and I am ecstatic about the strides that the creator and I are making.

Those who know me, can see that I'm changing. Those who don't know me still appreciate my story. And those who don't know themselves, may have a problem with who they think I am. One thing is for sure, if you make an effort to know and study yourself... you can never truly understand others. Once we find understanding we can react less, and make better and more reasonable decisions in the future. I'm finding life to be astoundingly simple...it is ourselves that make it so difficult.

So with all that said, I am fearlessly stepping into 2012!!! And I am so thankful to have the support that I do! From God, Family, Friends, and Supporters like anyone who's reading this now. :) I look forward to continue sharing my journey with you! And I wish us all the absolute best in this new year! Peace and Blessings...Love and Light!!!

Kisses! :*

Shoot with the artist...Moye

This Thursday, I will have the sincere pleasure of working with an artist I have admired for years! I have admittedly labeled myself as one of her "groupies", and further more proud of it! She has produced images that have literally taken my breath away...yet and still consistently leaving an heir of mystery, in photo and in person. There are many you can say that you like their work...there are few you can say you respect their art. Moye is that artist.
So when she posted a photo special for only $65!!! OH! a sista had to jump on that!!!! LOL! (You just don't get work like this for that amount of money) And as much as I would like to keep it all to myself, I thought I'd be nice and share it with y'all. :) So you don't have to be jealous when you see my new pics...you can just get your own! LOL!;) But in all seriousness...this is a gift, to share her art this way. To give us a cost effective way to share her talent... I totally dig it and...Respect it! I'll be sure to post the pics...but most def, get your own!

Check out more of her work here...

Kisses! ;-*

This was one of those right place at the right time opportunities! I was actually just chillin and my girl called me up...said the MUA on this project flaked and they needed somebody asap! Luckily I was there to save the day! And look how cool! A commercial for Enso! Actually did a little hair on this gig too. Turned out quite nice too...if I do say so myself! ;) Shouts to Famous Nobody and Shanae "Lady Truth" Levine!

(Hello Universe!...Is this thing on? LMAO) My last attempt to merge my journalism degree and this cosmetology path that I chose. Totally surreal to see yourself quoted like this, but I guess I know what I'm talkin about after 7 years of doin this! lol  Anyhoo...I definitely feel this is a step in the right direction! Many thanks to my girl Amelia Keith and her blog  Pretty in the Queen City!! For writing the article and using my expertise!

A Present Moment...

Well! It's been a minute since I've just written what's on my mind...so here goes it! :)
Life sure is a fascinating journey! I never...EVER...thought I would be here, at 30 years old. When I was a little girl my vision of me, now, was no where close to this. But the fabulous thing about it is...I'm happy. :)

Single...no children...make my own money...pay my own bills(most of em anyway!) and doin my own thang. I think I'm finally ready to just step out and enjoy life...every unpredictable moment! The past 3 decades have been about other people... long term relationships, family, toxic friendships, etc. I've had my fair share of life's hard blows, some to knock the wind outa me quite frankly! lol But, I have been blessed  in the process of God guiding me through the tests, to get to this very point...I am finally strong enough to do it on my own. In fact I always have been...I just needed to see it on my own! ;)

I'm so ready to go after exactly what I want, to manifest the destiny that belongs to me. To get the man I want, reach the level in my career I want, have the family I want, and live the lifestyle I want. And it starts here...I will accept no less than exactly what I want. Because I deserve it, and I'm willing to work hard for it...and though it may be taking a little longer than I ever dreamed as a little girl. God knows, it'll be worth the wait! ;) Shouts out to the 30 something's who aren't where they thought they would be...but doin just fine!!! 
Kisses!!! ;-*  

When it all comes together...

Many people ask me "Well, what do u do? Weddings and stuff?"... Here's a small window into what I do...a day in the life. Behind the scenes of a commercial shoot with photographer Thien La www.thienlaphotography.com. and the video is by Tarik Freitekh. Amazing job on all sides! I often say, in a real shoot....everyone has to play their part to 100 percent! The hairstylist, the mua, the photographer, wardrobe, etc. This is one of those moments, and look how fabulous it turned out!  Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!!! Comments are welcome! :)

The Beautiful Woman...Inside and Out!

These days, society is filled with a plethora of things to enhance outer beauty. As a makeup artist, I've seen more product lines than there seems to be faces for. The trend is to solve everything with a product, cosmetic, or treatment. What women don't realize is, that it ALL starts from within! Your confidence, what's on the inside, is what has to radiate on the outside. Before anyone can see the real beauty you possess...you have to see it and believe it first! 

So when I heard about this amazing event, I had to share it!!! On Saturday June 11th, 2011 "The Beautiful Woman Inside and Out"  is making a stop here in Charlotte, NC before heading to Atlanta and Los Angeles! Dr. Sharon Allison-Ottey  is the creator of this fabulous event! She is a nationally recognized speaker, author, health advocate and executive director of The COSHAR Foundation. After a successful launch in Bowie, Maryland....it's so exciting to know that Charlotte is next to experience this conference! “We are well aware of the health disparities that plague all women, and particularly women of  

color,” Dr. Ottey continued. “Our objective is to address the ‘whole’ woman, and to help women 

make informed choices about their inner and outer beauty.”

There team of experts will be sharing empowering info on health, wellness, fashion and beauty!  For an entire 

day, Charlotte women will have an opportunity to learn, network, get pampered and learn how to 

live more balanced lives. Attendees will also be treated to luxurious door prizes and raffle items, 

breakfast and lunch, entertainment, and many surprises! The Beautiful Woman Inside and Out ...check out the site for the panel of experts. Celebrity hairstylist, MUA, wardrobe stylist and more!!! 

“Our goal is to  ensure that women have the proper information, zeal and motivation to move towards 

improving all aspects of their lives.”

I'm so excited about attending, and will be back with a full report on all the fun!!! Hope to see you there! You definitely don't want to miss this! Until next time! Kisses! ;-* 

The Beautiful Woman Inside and Out Website

The First, First Friday Gallery Crawl!!!

People in Charlotte are always screaming out "There's nothing to do!" "Always the same crowd and the same stuff"! But they never support the underground stuff ! :P

Sooooo! Here's your chance to start!!! This is a new initiative/vision that the Gallery Owner wanted to bring to the QC! His ultimate goal is to mix live art with still art and bring awareness to the Artists, whether that be Fashion Designers or Artists of fine paintings and sculpture. The essence of this event is to make it fun and to take out the stereotypical "stuffiness" out of the mention of a "Gallery Crawl".


So come on out and show your support! See you Friday!
Kisses! ;-*

Photography by Loany Goodwin and video by Fresh Pres ... I can honestly say magic happened here! Can't wait to collab with this talented crew again! :) Comments welcome!

Jumping the Broom and Jones Magazine

I had the pleasure of a much needed girl's night out and a chick flick, when I went to see "Jumping the Broom" courtesy of Jones Magazine last week! The movie was absolutely fantastic! And the cocktails after didn't hurt either! ;)

The movie was written by TD Jakes, with characters like Angela Bassett, Paula Patton, Pooch Hall and that fine ass Lil Romeo! (who made me question the "cougar" thing quite a bit throughout the movie, lol) It touched on so many issues that everybody can relate to...love, deceit, lust, religion, family. It truly had all the elements! And it wasn't corny or over the top...I thought they did an awesome job of keepin it real! There really isn't anything bad I can say about the movie...guys can watch it without questioning their manhood, women will love every minute! Their wasn't a lot of cursing or vulgarity and there's lots of eye candy! lol Hair and makeup were on point too! Well written, directed and executed...and everyone played their part to a T!!! 

Totally worth the money! I vote 2 thumbs up! I was straight bein the chick in the theater yellin at the screen! lmao!( Public apology to all those around me! lol)  So I won't tell anymore...you've got to go see it! Leave a comment after you do! Kisses! ;-*

PS! Many thanks to Loany G Photography  and Meet The Fresh for the awesome pics! :)
