On May 9th, I attended Be BEAUTY-full, hosted by on-air beauty expert Anna De Souza (NBC, Fox, CW11) at the Teaneck Marriott at Glenpointe in New Jersey. The empowering event included a panel discussion on The Beauty in Finding Balance. The panel was moderated by Anna De Souza, and included style expert Samantha Brown (Samantha Brown Style), beauty expert Felecia Walker Benson (This That Beauty) and mommy expert Kay Hudson (MommyNoire).
Attendees had the opportunity to hear inspiring and true insider stories from the panel of experts, who shared their secrets to managing a demanding schedule while maintaining beauty and balance in their lives.
After the panel, attendees were able to meet with local vendors from New Jersey, including GoodieBox Bake Shop in Cliffside Park, BeautyBeat Box from Franklin Park, Stella & Dot stylist/accessories consultants, Starsky & Hutch, Esthetica MD in Englewood, and The Accelerations Group.
The second half of the day featured celebrity makeup artist Merrell Hollis, as he shared his makeup expertise and shared the hottest trends and makeup tips with a hands-on makeup tutorial, showing women how to have fun with color and use makeup to enhance their natural beauty.
