Ep. 38: A Chit-Chat With My Real Life #FriendinBeauty Xena Nevils
Today on the Friends in Beauty Podcast I welcome my #FriendinBeauty + real life friend, Xena Nevils, to the guest chair.
Xena, is a Makeup Artist and Master Esthetician out of Hampton Roads Virginia and had been servicing the wedding and beauty industry particularly for over 10 years. She focuses on the health & beautification of the skin for everyday Women & Brides. "Creating The Luxury Skin Experience from Yes, to I Do."
I was excited to have the opportunity to interview Xena for the Friends in Beauty Podcast. We met on Facebook almost 5 years ago. Our mutual love for makeup and caribbean carnival connected us. We ended up going to Trinidad carnival together in 2017 and spending that time together for almost 2 weeks definitely solidified us as real friends. We don’t get to see each other much because she lives like 3hrs away so we spend a lot of time on the phone or on video chat…especially during quarantine. We always have really great conversations both beauty related and non-beauty related so I wanted to bring my friend on the show to give you a little glimpse of some of the stuff we talk about behind closed doors. It may be some of the same things that you think about or talk about too.
We talked about so much in this interview. Xena shares:
- How her interest in beauty began as a young girl
- Why she chose to become a Master Esthetician
- Her experience working in retail at the makeup counter
- How she has dealt with comparing herself to others
- Some crazy client experiences
- And so much more…
But wait until you hear the best advice she’s ever received!!
