Tracey Lee of Beauty2trs comments: “The most wonderful experience about being educated by different ambassadors and educators is that each one brings something different to the table. Some have an infectious personality that endears you to them, others have experience in so many different fields in our business, while others have a way of relaying information to you that allows it to just fall into place. Different people, different talents, all with the same goal – to share their knowledge, experience and skills with you in their own way through education.

“That is what makes this collaboration class with Shelena Robinson and Winnie Huang so strong. A combination of crazy, talented artists combined with their unique personalities to offer something for everybody.”
