The Thing You've Asked For: Face Flawless Skin Clinic

For YEARS (YEARS!! I’ve been blogging since like ’07), people (mostly women) have asked me to do something SKINCARE SPECIFIC. And, coincidentally, my homie-lover-friends @stylenbeautydoc and @christenecarr were having the exact same conversations with their audiences…

So. We put our (very pretty, brown) heads together and @faceflawlessskin was LOVINGLY born and METHODICALLY planned. And on Nov 19, 2015, we held our inaugural event — Face Flawless Skin Clinic…*insert unicorn tears*

If you’ve followed my blog and skin care wisdom for all of two seconds, you know that I’m true to this…not new to this — and I’m definitely not one of these overnight filtered-and-blurred-scarily-contoured sensations [Was that a read?]

Face Flawless Skin Clinic is a HUGE win for Women of Color….and I am PROUD, PROUD, PROUD to be one-third of the dynamic trio.

Our day long skin care event, designed to help women of color achieve their best skin, was held at the uber chic Martha Washington Hotel in New York City. A sold out [YES, HUNTY – SOLD OUT] crowd of approximately one hundred women gathered for two 2-hour information sessions.

We were joined by experts from Olay, RoC Skincare, Guerlain, celebrity makeup artist Danessa Myricks, and esthetician from Lespri Mobile Spa, Rachelle Richardson. Each in-depth panel discussion addressed many of the skin care issues that women of color commonly face. In addition, Danessa Myricks demonstrated how to use makeup to cover blemishes without overpowering the skin.

Olay Skincare gave guests the fundamentals of a more even skin tone with their Regenerist Luminous line.
