AK Makeup Artistry has teamed up with Michele Kipplen Photography and Chico's to deliver the ultimate experience showcasing the vibrancy, strength and beauty of women over 50. This exclusive event has limited spaces for area women to have a personalized styling session with a Chico's stylist, full HD makeover and one on one photo session complete with you favorite images included. Make sure to reserve your own Nifty Over 50 Experience today! We recently did our first shoot with three gorgeous ladies. Today we are featuring one of them. Meet Melissa!
Melissa is an Interior Designer with Ethan Allen. She spends her day transforming ordinary rooms into extraordinary showpieces. It was my immense pleasure getting to pamper and treat Melissa to a makeover of her own! Her good friend, Nikki, told Melissa about the Nifty 50 photo experience. "She asked me and she is an amazing, hard working, dedicated & beautiful individual so I was happy to participate." And she is so glad she said yes! We asked Melissa to share about her experience and here is what she had to say:
"I felt very pampered! I loved the make up and seeing how a professional would interpret it, and the camaraderie of the women involved. When I arrived I had a few jitters but they didn’t last long. It took a little getting used to with my olive skin but I’m always open to new looks and loved having it done for me! The photography session- she was SOOO good. I loved the experience and I thought each of you brought a special touch to the table."
