Planet Stiletto

Meet Andra Allen-Joseph, the woman behind Planet Stiletto Beauty. Andra’s journey to being a beautician is certainly an inspiring one. She always had a passion for creating since her father painted and sculpted in his free time and encouraged her love of color, drawing and painting. Her mother was an avid makeup lover and Andra always got into trouble playing in her makeup and high heels. Hence the passion was always latent. In her early working years she did what her head told her was sensible. She started off with a Bachelor’s Degree in Analytical Chemistry and held management positions in the corporate sector. After many years in the corporate sector working to make other people’s dreams come true she could not ignore her passion calling to her, so she followed her heart and decided it was time to chase her own. She took a chance and became a trained Novalash Extensionist. The chance paid off and she quickly became sought after for her skill in transforming a woman's look using the eyelash extensions. The success of the extensions gave her the confidence to seek out formal training in makeup artistry. This too was successful and Andra has landed several jobs such as calendar, magazine cover, magazine editorial, bridal, corporate and party makeup. She is also a regular beauty writer for SHE Caribbean magazine. Andra has since furthered her lash business and aspirations by becoming an Advanced Novalash Extensionist. It is her passion to create customized lash extension looks that suit the client’s natural eyelashes, personality and lifestyle. The highest quality products are used and applied with the health of the natural lash foremost in mind and with a technique that gives a unique look to every client. As a professionally trained Makeup Artist she is dedicated to providing services that suit every occasion and client. As a published beauty writer, she prides herself in keeping up to date on the latest trends. Her portfolio shows versatility with respect to the type of makeup work done. She also loves to impart her knowledge to clients during one on one makeup teaching sessions. Makeup Artistry and Eyelash Extensions are her vehicle, transporting her into a world of service. Andra’s ultimate satisfaction is the look on your face when you hold that mirror up .
