These prom babies have me in all my feels. Such a sweet and stunning young Queen. Slide to see her in all her Prom glory. ❤️✨
Sidenote: the think pieces on the internet about the way parents are choosing to celebrate their HS graduates is super weird. I didn’t know that was a trending discourse until today. Out of all the other pressing issues in the world? Give me a break!

A little Grenadian girl who dared to dream - and a gift I didn’t know I had somehow kept making room for me.
14 years. That’s how long this gift has been giving back to me. Makeup has carried me into rooms I could not have dreamed up vividly enough for myself.
From production floors, to bridal suites, television sets, board rooms, classrooms, tours and red carpets. And now I get to bring it all HOME. 14 years of lessons, expertise, education, growth, systems, standards and dope ass artistry.
To the Artists who have already registered and invested in this experience - big THANK YOU. You are the proof of concept. You are the push. You are the reminder that this vision is not just in my head anymore. It is taking beautiful shape. 🙏🏾🖤

June 29 - 30: Homecoming Makeup Masterclass Intensive.
Sign up now @ www.heynelli.com ❤️✨
A question I’ve been getting asked a lot…
April’s class set the foundation, June is the elevation. April’s class was a one day experience focused on foundational techniques. This upcoming Homecoming Masterclass is TWO FULL DAYS of deeper education, stronger structure, and a much more expansive learning experience.
DAY ONE is focused on all things Bridal Beauty: intake, consultations, risks, proposals, contracts, communication and how to show up for Brides with a higher professional standard.
DAY TWO is focused on editorial beauty and elevating carnival glam - we’re stretching the artists into creative direction, storytelling, bolder and more intentional artistry, work that can live beyond the chair and into global beauty spaces.
The experience also includes:
- a free networking mixer and moderated chat with facilitators and stake holders
- more Artist Educators and support leads
- professional photography
- breakout sessions
- professional and business insight and more.
April broke ground, June we start building.

10 years ago, she was the little girl in the bridal suite who just wanted to feel included in the magic. A little blush. A little gloss. Just enough to make little Mimi feel special. And now, here we are! A whole young woman in my chair. Full prom glam!
Whew! Time really doesn’t ask us for permission to move. This one made me stop. Especially since she’s my daughter’s age - same milestone.
This is a part of the work that means the most to me. It’s not just about the face and a booking. It’s the years, the trust, the memories. The way clients and their families grow with you. The way women come back to you to paint different versions of themselves.
This one was super special in the sweetest way. Thank you for trusting me with your Niecey 🤗🩷
