Makeup Artist, Groomer, Beauty Ambassador, Empowerment Speaker and Entrepreneur Dre Brown calls in to The Junk and Jam Hour to talk all about her fabulous journey in beauty, beginning with her Southern upbringing, to her early career as a Makeup Artist and Beauty Advisor, and her important work as a nationwide ambassador, curriculum consultant, and educator for the DoveⓇ Self-Esteem Project. On topic is Dre's creative and professional ventures in beauty, fashion and in lifestyle, that has found her lending her talents to projects for the Food Network, Interscope Records, Comedy Central, Cosmopolitan, Harpers Bazaar, HBO, Essence, the Oxygen Network and Black Enterprise - to name a few. Her free spirited approach to beauty and using her gifts as a vehicle to cultivate pride and empower others has even found her working on the face of Tarana Burke - Founder of the #MeToo movement and foundation. She also talks about her partnership with the Dove Self Esteem Project, which provides expert resources - of which she is - for parents and mentors to help raise young people’s self-esteem, and her personal goal of amplifying the voices of other black women, and women of color. As the lover of all things color and loveliness, she shares her fascinatingly creative venture as co-author of The Ultimate Empowerment Activity Workbook for Her - a project she produced with her sister N. Chevonne Brown. Dre immersed herself in the illustration of engaging exercises, stories, and games for the workbook, providing opportunities for artistic expression to inspire the minds and hearts of women - designed to calm the mind, still the spirit, and entertain the soul.
