Evcurlgurl.com 4th Anniversary

CELEBRATING 4 YEARS

My how time flies. It was exactly four years ago today, though it was Thanksgiving morning, that after much debate about going solo as an editor (and sleep deprived from the cooking and fighting with a 20 lb. turkey - I won), I sat down and launched my baby: Evcurlgurl.com. Just like that! Fast-forward to 1,000 articles, thousands of products (I had to turn my spare bedroom into a product room) and hundreds of amazing events. What have I been up to? Beauty, events - still an Editor - Real Estate (got my license in February after only eight days of studying) and more marketing. 

Wonder X Funoogles movie premiere, November 16, 2017 

In the meantime, I have a few fab events that I attended the past couple of weeks: Birchbox X Arm & Hammer Spinbrush, Inner Orange Beauty X Dr. Smood (Smart Food), Nerium 2018 Launch Preview, the grand opening of Shobha Brow in Brooklyn and Wonder Movie X Funoogles Preview. Busy, busy bliss. Being the foto-freak that I am, check out some pics from the events:

Here are a few more (same events from the past month)

Yes, I know I took some time off, and I STILL have my Fashion Week posts to share with you guys, but I was not feeling well for a while. BUT I promise that there is so much in store for you (with a few surprises....)

Evcurlgurl.com 3rd Anniversary

CELEBRATING THREE YEARS

OF BEAUTY & BLISS

Seems like it was only yesterday, yet at the same time it feels like an eternity. After only three years in the beauty industry (what started out as me modeling my curls for Ouidad), I was at a crossroad debating which path to take with regards to my passion for beauty. So, exactly three years ago today on Thanksgiving Day, as my turkey was cooking in the wee hours of the early morning, I took out my laptop and within ten minutes I launched Evcurlgurl.com. Just like that. I'd like to say that "my hair got me there, but the writing added flair!" I like to keep it simple, with the focus on pictures, products and presentation!

The moment it all began.... March 2011

Fast-forward to TODAY: to over 1 MILLION views, over 1,000 events attended, hundreds of NYFW coverage (my Superbowl, lol), countless of readers and over 300 brands that continue to believe in my passion for branding and marketing... I sincerely thank you ALL for giving me the inspiration, drive and determination to keep going. Products are my passion and I'm only getting started...
