Describe a day in your life?
A day in my life is like getting on the biggest highest roller coaster at the theme park, throwing your hands in the air, and taking the ride of your life–going all the way up and then hitting the low points all the while screaming at the top of your lungs but smiling, body rushing with excitement all at the same time; knowing you got on this ride you can not get off ’til it’s over. That’s what my day is Like!
How did get into the cosmetic business?
Started doing makeup in college as a part-time job and got into the business by currating a space.
What makes LAMIK different from other brands?
LAMIK is different and that is obvious in the name. LAMIK is an acronym: Love And Makeup In Kindness. So not only are you putting on makeup you are putting on Love and Kindness. We believe Beauty is Revealed, not applied. LAMIK is Paraben free and Talc free. Most of our packaging is made from recycled paper and still looks chic! We have makeup shades for all hues of women.
Why is LAMIK the perfect place for collegiettes to shop for cosmetics?
Collegiettes find a perfect place to shop within LAMIK because of our simple steps to Reveal your Beauty (apply your makeup). We say there are only 7 steps and it only takes you 10 minutes to do your makeup. Also, we believe in going Green with how many products you have in your makeup bag, so the collegiettes do not have to spend a whole lot to look like a whole lot! Smile!
Who is your role model?
Michelle Obama
