JEN_NY69 Makeup Seminar Recap
On July 25, 2015, @jen_ny69 stepped out of the hot pink door of Pinky Rose Makeup & Studio in a silk blush dress and strappy nude stilettos. Forty makeup enthusiasts lined up outside Clubhouse 24 with their trunks and mirrors for a hands-on makeup demonstration. “Like a YouTube video IRL,” says Jenny. Black goodie bags featuring Hot Cheetos and our favorite 504 large angled face brush were lined across the tables for the students. @jen_ny69 and @ann_ette69 at Clubhouse 24 Special guest @cammjay introduced makeup enthusiast Jenny, followed by a Q&A session by the rising Latina beauty. She shared industry tips, including how to get big on social media, how to become a freelance makeup artist, and how to build your makeup inventory. "You always have to remind yourself makeup is an accessory. Confidence comes from within." Throughout the seminar, CammJay and the ladies of Pinky Rose raffled off makeup giveaways, such as the z palette and even a Luxie 12-pc brush set to a lucky winner! During the break, Jenny’s mother cooked delicious tortillas while DJ @garcro3 set the mood. The girls twerked to win prizes and picked up goodies from the taco-shaped pinata filled with makeup. The gorgeous beauty model was Jenny’s very own sister, @ann_ette69!
