Maybe you already saw the news online, or read it in print – but I was finally able to get my hands on a copy and now I’m honored to announce it here. Essence Magazine has honored me in their latest issue, in the Best in Black Beauty Awards 2013! Click here to read it online. Or if you have the May 2013 issue (with Janelle Monae on the cover), you’ll find the Best Beauty Awards inside the sponsored insert in the magazine. Rip the sticker open to see me and my fellow winners!
Essence included me in their list of Beauty Innovators and named me a Social Media Trailblazer.
The write-up couldn’t be more kind or delightful. Thank you to everyone at Essence who chose to include me! I’m going to keep doing my best to share, uplift, and celebrate our unique beauty. Thank you for recognizing me. Honored is not the word.
Where can you find me, blazing these social media trails?
