Today I spoke to Eloria. She has been a very busy person lately! Eloria told me, she has many jobs. She said… I am a Make-Up Artist / Cosmetologist / Lab technician and I am currently going to school to become a Broker and Real Estate Agent. Out of all the jobs I possess, I must say, being a Make-up Artist – Cosmetologist is my passion. Eloria said, I have been in this business, ( as a Make-up Artist / Cosmetologist), for the past eight years, She said, I love my life. Eloria was born and raised in Brooklyn, N.Y. … She still resides there.
Eloria then stated… I am coming out with my own cosmetic line. Her new cosmetic line is incorporated with one of the Basketball Wives on television.
Jackie Christie – The Jackie Christie Line. She said, I’ve been working with Jackie Christie since 2013. Everything is moving so fast. I can’t believe my life. I’m definitely blessed by GOD…
Working as a Make-up Artist – Cosmetologist and working towards one of my goals in attaining my Real Estate / Brokers license, has been a real challenge for me. Although, it’s two completely different worlds, I get to use both sides of my brain. The creative side of me, (Make-up artist) as well as the mechanical side, (my Real Estate / Brokers license).
Five years from now, I see myself as a trailblazer for make-up artists. I would teach them – how to apply make-up, the correct way and look fabulous doing it. I would be – The Maya Angelou of make-up. I’ve done make-up for many celebrities. I’ve also done make-up for attorneys, nurses, magazine editors and a whole array of other individuals. Beauty and fashion is what I always wanted to do, she proclaimed. And now, I’m living my dreams
Eloria concluded her statement by saying…. My mother inspired me to be all that I can be. My mother is my biggest cheerleader. My younger sisters also cheer for me. . But my mom… (tears began to swell in Elorias eyes). My mother has always pushed me to live my dreams. There was a time, when I did not believe in myself. I knew how good I was. I knew I had great things inside of me waiting to get out. I was afraid to pursue my dreams. But, during those times, when I did not believe in myself, My mom did. She pushed me to be all that I can be. My younger sisters played a part in it also. Mom….I just want to say… Thank you. My younger sisters…. I just want to say… Thank you. My family… you inspire me.
