We are so pleased and excited about our official launch scheduled in 10 days (August 20th, 2011) at the L2 Lounge in Georgetown, DC. I will be posting a blog each day with what is happening in the world of ink...cosmetics to give you an inside look at what it took to make the event epic and unforgettable.
What's happening now?
MILITARY TRAINING:
I am still in a military combat training course and between fighting simulated opposing forces and combating the insects and the heat, while continuing meetings via emails and phone to finalize all the necessary pieces for a seamless and successful launch event.
I have about another 2 hours before we gear up for a simulated Southwest Asian mission and pray we all come back with zero casualties! This is my last week here and I am ready to head home. We have a great team and I know we will do well!

LAUNCH PREP:
Everything seems to be in place for the ink...cosmetics launch! Thank GOD! I am so pleased to be surrounded by such professional people! As you see in the invite, this is a FREE event! We have put together beauty necessities for our FREE I <3 ink...cosmetics swag bags. Get there early! Bags are available only the first 100 guests!
We have brought in some of the best companies in the DC area together in order to showcase the faces of ink...! The launch will be the official welcome of ink...cosmetics as a retailed product.
First, I want to thank each one of the companies as a whole cultivated creative team for all the hard work they have done to assist in support of my vision. THANK YOU! May you all continue to be blessed with your successes as well!
I will showcase each company on my blog as a tribute and credit to them for their time and efforts!
The music for the show is picked, the special performance by amazing Grammy Nominated Recording Artist Carolyn Malachi is highly anticipated, and everyone is finishing up their respective pieces of the puzzle.
Models are set and confirmed and I am so looking forward to enhancing their already beautiful faces! I will showcase each of them as well in the next few weeks to come. Thank you ladies for your continued support!
We will have models like Allyn Rose, Miss Maryland USA 2011, couture dresses designed by WELLTA, hair by the wonderful W SALON VA, accessories and shoes styled by Ayanna Scott of http://www.scottnco.com/, production management by Triana Woodard and Vance Gamble of Purple District, event photography by Naiffer Photography, MC hosts Vannessa and Markette of DC on Heels, videography by Mundovision and continued contributing support by DC Life Magazine.
THE LOOKS:
I have received emails over the last month asking what do I have in store for our faces of ink... Well, honestly, I have been combing over some ideas and don't want to spoil the fun by disclosing too much information. I know I will feature some one of a kind Makeup Accessories by ink... and high pigmented trends at a minimum.
The purpose of this launch is to showcase just some of the capabilities of our skincare and cosmetics line, which has been formulated for multi-purpose results for both men and women. We are also using this event to meet with other Fashion industry professionals in and around the DC, Maryland and Virginia area.
I hope to meet each of you there! XXO Besos!
