Nicole has done my makeup for high profile events like the Beautylish Beauty Social, the BET Awards, the Essence Black Women in Hollywood luncheon, my EDEN BodyWorks photo shoot, and the Oscars! I absolutely love working with her because her spirit is so soothing and calming, and you can truly see the pride in her work while she’s doing your makeup. And that person is Nicole Evans, an incredible makeup artist based in Los Angeles.Įvery time I’m in L.A and need my face beat to perfection, she is the person I call.

I had to reach out to one of my favorite makeup artists, who I KNEW would be able to give me the answers I was looking for. Still, I can’t claim to be a total MAC expert in the way that my blogging buddies Temptalia or Karen MBB are. Question #2 – What’s the best permanent collection alternative to AMPL? OR What are the best lipsticks for dark skin? OR What are the best MAC lipsticks for my skin tone?Īnswer: Good question! There are MAC lipsticks I find myself always going back to, and lipsticks I always find that makeup artists use on me. I wish I had better news for you and hopefully someday there will be a full Afrobella collection of cosmetics somewhere, somehow (hey, dream big)! Question #1 – will they EVER bring back All Of My Purple Life?Īnswer: I believe it’s still available in Canada, but as far as I know at present MAC has no plans to bring back AMPL. This post will aim to answer both of them, with a little help from an expert!

Because of my history as one of the chosen ones for the 2011 Bloggers Obsession collection, I’m asked about MAC Cosmetics often.
