Kelly Rowland-Witherspoon chatted up with Essence at the Boys & Girls Club of America, where she revealed her latest power move — a makeup collection catering to chocolate girls.
“My makeup artist Sheika Daley and I are actually starting a makeup line we’re making sure we make, well, we’re starting off with lashes and then we’re going to have it grow for all women,” Kelly revealed to Essence.
“But definitely making sure we have our chocolate girls covered. Gotta get the chocolate girls in there! We have to have that, you know. I think Iman has done a beautiful makeup line and I want to do it too!”
No stranger to going glam, Rowland detailed the experience that influenced the project. “I remember going to Europe and there was this one makeup artist — I’m a chocolate girl, and she made me look pink,” Kelly informed PeopleStyle. “And then when she tried again, I looked green. And then when she tried again, I looked way fairer than what I really am.”
Kelly went on to recall of their early days, when she and the former girl group tried to take the matter into their own hands, “I looked like a monster in one picture. I remember Destiny’s Child went to the Brit Awards, and we tried to do our faces ourselves — I looked crazy. So I had to learn!”
When it comes to advice she would have given her young make-up loving self, the mother of one said, “Less makeup is more – You can look like yourself — you don’t have to want to look like anybody else. Just be your own unique you. And intuition. As women, we have the best intuition, so just go with it. There’s nothing wrong with it, you’re spot on.” (source)
