The entrepreneur notes that she has always been passionate about makeup and the confidence it instils in women:

“Makeup is something I’ve always been passionate about. From a young age, I’ve always been a girly girl. I just love makeup on me. I love it more on my clients. I love enhancing their beauty.”
