Growing up in the 90s, I saw glimmers of myself in the beauty world. There were ads, covers, and campaigns that celebrated dark skin, that held space for brown girls with texture, depth, and richness. That kind of visibility planted a seed. I thought, maybe this is for me too.

I’ve had to remind myself: there’s a difference between sharing your work and “selling your soul to the scroll”. And I’ve felt that pull..the urge to perform, the guilt when I don’t post, the fear that if I’m not visible, I’ll be forgotten. But I’ve also come to realize: my artistry isn’t less valuable just because I didn’t film it.

You thought it was just about makeup — but behind every brushstroke was a conversation, a connection, a moment where you felt seen. That’s the part I’ll never forget.

Your bridal trial is your beauty blueprint. It’s where we map out your glam, test products on your skin, and figure out a look that feels like you. Think of it as a dress rehearsal, but for your face. It’s not just about “trying on” makeup. It’s about building a look that really helps capture the overall essence of you and your special day.

I’m not here to mask or overcorrect. I’m here to meet you exactly where you are. I study your bone structure, your eye shape, your skin tone, and your comfort level. I ask the right questions. I listen. And then I build a look that feels aligned with who you are, not just what’s trending.

When I do soft glam, I’m not just applying products. I’m reading skin, adjusting undertones, watching how the light hits your face and how your eyes respond to certain shades. I’m choosing the right textures and finishes that work for your unique canvas. Every placement is intentional.

Whether you’re a bride, a fellow creative, or just someone who loves beauty, I hope this space feels honest, inspiring, and real. This is where I get to slow down and reflect, and to share the “why” behind the artistry. I’ve always wanted a space to be able to let you in on what fuels the magic.
