What keeps you inspired to do make-up?

Tunnel vision, truthfully if I kept my eyes on all of what is going on in beauty I would feel defeated and drained. The industry is extremely over saturated. I keep myself inspired by focusing on trends that I like and things that feel good. Old music videos and magazines. I love older trends where makeup wasn’t as harsh.

What kind of looks are your favorite to create ?

I love complexion and clean skin. Im very traditional in my application I still use a flat foundation brush vs a beauty blender because I love to paint. I love skin that glows from within. I love smoky eyes that are not too deep with grey’s and charcoals.

If you could do make up on any celeb who would you choose and what look would you go for ?

I love women who have clean skin and aren’t afraid to try something a little different.  Believe it or not I don’t have a celebrity I would love to do but I am in love with a few past and present faces that I have appreciation for. Who look beautiful without makeup and makeup is just the accessory. Find me the person who has the most unique and intricate features and that would inspire me more than working with a celebrity!

             What path do you feel make up is leading you towards?

  I’ve been an executive in the beauty industry for a really long time now.  I love writing and education and make-up has brought me to a platform in which I can use my voice to inform and educate women on beauty. This platform is growing immensely. I curate educational beauty content and work with writers who I push and motivate to do the same.

What's next for Pepper B ?

Staying consistent with my beauty platform

I want to start off by first welcoming you to my website, If you've come for the first time to read a little more about who I am I encourage you to browse the entire site before you leave. There will be something here at some point that will interest you. Furthermore My name is Pepper.B and I am NYC based Make-up artist and Journalist. 

I treat both being a Make-up artist & Journalist with the same regard because I am extremely passionate about both things and often can't decide which makes me happier. I'm one who has to the tell the story after I create it. I probably should've been a director lol.  I developed a passion for beauty at a very young age watching my late mom get ready in our small one bedroom apartment in Downtown, Brooklyn. Hints the social media handle @Downtownpepper. I would steal my moms make-up bag and attempt to recreate looks she did. I honestly never thought this is something I would turn into my adulthood career. When I was 18 I created a beauty blog called "COMPINC Beauty" There I had a youtube channel where I built some of my following.  My mission was to work relentlessly until I created a name. I've now worked with some of the most fascinated people on the biggest media platforms. 

Recently I let go of my blog of 6 years to rebrand my business. No matter how long you've been around you always deserve to start fresh. On my website I feature different Women who are talented leaders and trendsetters. My interviews break down things they like and how they have jumpstarted the business they own in a unique way. I also have a tab of product reviews that reverts back to my blogs original aesthetic by doing classic written product reviews with ratings. I have 4 amazing writers who help me in building this tab by providing the most current ratings and reviews.
