Summary

If Doechii’s Paris Fashion Week looks had you obsessed, this episode is for you! I had the pleasure of talking with her makeup artist Chelsea Uchenna and hairstylist Malcolm Marquez about their collaboration with the icon in the making. Despite growing up on opposite sides of the world, both artists had innate creative sensibilities, decided early on that they would have careers in beauty, and were inspired by iconic queer and trans communities. In their respective interviews, Chelsea and Malcolm discuss how they came to be part of Doechii’s team and how they help one another push their creative boundaries. They also dish on the behind-the-scenes chaos that resulted in one of the most iconic series of Paris Fashion Week looks ever. While each interview revealed unique differences in their approaches to beauty, they both underscored how important mutual respect is when visionaries collaborate. Tune in as we discuss:Chelsea’s tips for creating flawless dark-skinned glamHow drag queen’s beauty and stage makeup influences themThe engineering process behind Doechii’s connected braids Why we need to see dark-skinned Black women pushing their creative boundaries with color and styleTheir beauty ethos of showing things that aren’t meant to be seenProducts Mentioned:MakeupFresh Oil Infused TonerCharlotte Tilbury Glow TonerKiehl’s Hydro-Plumping Hydrating Serum | All Day Moisturizer | Kiehl’s Avocado Eye CreamDanessa Myricks Universal Blurring Balm | Water Powder SerumFenty Lip BalmLancome Teint Idole FoundationPat McGrath ConcealerHairghd Unplugged Flat IronNeat Crowns Braided WigsRate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on Apple Thanks for all the love and support.

Hero and Leander (version 2) by Christopher Marlowe Loyal Books Two young people, the epitome of young masculine and feminine beauty, fall in love at first sight, but their union is forbidden by the tyranny of their guardians and of geography itself, for they live on opposite sides of the Hellespont. To enjoy one night of love, Leander dares to swim this formidable strait, unluckily meeting the god Neptune along the way. Unaware of the resentment he has aroused by rejecting the advances of this old queen of the sea, the lad gains the shore and, once past the shock of appearing naked on his lover's doorstep, finds his way into her bed. There the young couple, although ignorant of the facts of life (Hero is a "nun" in the temple of Venus!), discover "all that elder lovers know" by (awkward) trial and (hilarious) error. The unfinished poem ends with one lover having fallen out of bed, the long return journey across the Hellespont still to come and an angry Neptune lying in wait. Although George Chapman continued the poem after Marlowe's death, this re Saxxy Saxxy Leed Naked Black Beauty by Anna Sewell Loyal Books This unique tale is narrated by a lovely, gentle horse named Black Beauty and has remained a children's classic since it was first published in 1877. It earned eternal name and fame for its author Anna Sewell, an invalid who died within a few months of publication. According to current estimates, it has sold more than fifty million copies world wide, been translated into many languages and delighted generations of children. The original title page reads: Black Beauty: Translated from the original Equine by Anna Sewell and this gives the reader an instant glimpse into what the book will be about. As an autobiography written by a horse and told from his point of view, it was indeed an original and unique concept for the time. Strangely enough, Anna Sewell never intended the book to be exclusively read by children. She meant it to be a manual for those who worked with horses so that they would develop more compassion and kindness when dealing with these mute beasts. While it apparently Clarimonde (or La Morte Amoreuse) Théophile Gautier This is the story of a priest named Romauld, and his all-consuming love for the beautiful courtesan, Clarimonde.
