Ep. 304: Sam Fine; a legacy of beauty. Talking one on one with the legendary makeup artist who defined an era and celebrates black beauty

Yes we are ba-ack!

New name, new format but still the same focus on bringing you the stories and guests who truly shape the fashion and beauty landscape.

My first guest for this new format is the one and only Sam Fine; the ground-breaking makeup artist who celebrates the beauty of women of colour through his work and created an industry bible in the form of Fine Beauty: BeautyBasics and Beyond for African American Women.

Today Sam's skills are still in demand for a slew of celebrity clients and most recently he won the Icon Award at the eleventh annual Met Gala Artists Dinner.

In this episode Sam shares on how he decided to become a makeup artist, how being adopted at just six months old gave him a different view on the concept of family and why he's so passionate about centring black beauty.

And there's more; as well as this episode there's also a fully-visual edited version over on YouTube so you get to see more of Sam's work in all its glory.
