Team TCF Let’s be honest? Having Google as your main source of finding trends is..ok. But there is nothing that can beat the source,especially when it comes to make-up. Having a ‘how-to’ guide for the Winter is just what is needed to kick off this season with style and grace. Making sure your facial features are in line with this seasons fashion trends can be a bit complicated.
Celebrity makeup artist and creator of ‘Nakeah Cosmetics’, Nakeah Fuller, happily gave us the run-down on dodging those cracks in this seasons make-up transition. Also the owner of ‘All about Face’ Academy and Nakeah Cosmetics Beauty Lounge, this Texas native was bound for greatness the second she picked up a brush.
Working for several household cosmetic lines, including MAC and Iman, Fuller couldn’t help but take her well-developed craft and apply it to other areas of the industry. Working with a unique range of celebrities, Fuller took that opportunity to enhance her household name and develop a line with ‘us in mind’.
