A Beyonce work ethic and making content creation look easy with MUA Ehlie Luna

EPISODE 77

Ehlie Luna is an artist in the truest sense of the word. I loved this conversation and truly think Ehlie's words and advice will resonate with you. As always, we start out talking about morning routines, from social admin to skincare, but the real inspo comes from Ehlie sharing her creative process. If you look at any of her work or content creation on Instagram (@ehlieluna) you would likely assume she is a natural who simply knows her stuff.

But during this conversation the New York-based makeup artist - whose day job is working with the dancers of the New York City Ballet - shares how she credits the likes of Beyonce and athletes for her critical work ethic and also shares how her songwriting background has influenced her process. Ehlie dives into how she has learned to be her toughest, but fairest critic, and how that process helps her improve and refine her work. She truly inspired me!

We also discuss the beauty influences of Ehlie's Haitian heritage and she shares her skincare mishaps and why the time is NOW to really do the things we're meant to do. Please give Ehlie a follow, and check out her website and be sure to check out some amazing video snippets from our chat over on @beautymepodcast.
