It took me about 8 years to land my first celebrity client--definitely the opposite of an overnight success

What else do you guys wanna know about my career as a makeup artist??

I LOVE that you worked at Merle Norman in North Carolina!!! I sold Mary Kay in Little Rock, Arkansas for a short time--Learn from life! I’d love to hear more of your story. ❤️

More story time please. One of my favorite powders when I was 17-18 was the loose Merle Norman in The big Container ( which was so pretty) . Will you ever write a book?
