This Week's Feature: Victoria Wells of Beautiful Faces
Victoria knew early on that she was destined to uncover the beauty of those around her. It began as early as age seven as she learned to manipulate shapes and colors during a YMCA 4H competition. Victoria took to the example of dedication as presented by her parents, still "joined at the hip" after 31 years of marriage as she attended Iowa State University's design program. She later returned to Chicago to make her place in the concrete jungle.
The idea for Beautiful Faces emerged long before Victoria made it manifest. While working behind the Clinique counter in what would eventually become Macy's she provided hundreds of clients with beauty and skin care tips on a daily basis. It was there that Victoria continued to hone her interpersonal and consultation skills that her clients rave about today. She further developed her talents through painstaking study of other artists around her and fine tuned her skills while working on the faces of her clients at Clinique. All the while, Victoria staying focused on a single resolute goal: tap into a client's inner beauty and showcase it to the world!
Beautiful Faces provides professional beauty services to clients on location specializing in application and consultation for weddings, photo shoots, fashion shows as well as film/video projects. Recently, she has expanded her service offering to include additional makeup artists, hair stylists, lash experts as well as a masseuse and fitness/nutritional professionals. Victoria also offers employment opportunities through her Mary Kay business promoting independence to women everywhere.
Beautiful Faces isn't just about making other's look their best. The company also encourages girls and young women to take pride in themselves and their appearance. Victoria is currently seeking to work with Chicago Public Schools to hold Ladies & Gents workshops. The workshops are part of Victoria's vision of operating a not-for-profit dedicated to instructing young men and women how to present themselves in a professional manner in social and professional settings.
