She explained “Back in 2019, when my business was still called SAKS Makeup Artistry, most of my promo shoots were done using Fentybeauty. I was just building my portfolio, creating looks, and dreaming big. After a few years of working closely with Glamourbeauty.gy to help bring this brand to Guyana, it’s finally here.”

The MUA continued “It was one of the very first foundations I started using when I began my career, and it remains a product I still rely on today because of its quality, shade range and performance on different skin tones.”

She noted that the cosmetics will work well for Guyanese women because of the diverse nature of the country.

“The brand’s wide range of shades allows women of different complexions and undertones to find a true match. It is also a brand that goes beyond makeup. Fenty Skin encourages healthy skincare for everyone, and men can also benefit from the simple and effective skincare routine the line offers,” she said.

Additionally, as an advocate for the beauty industry to be respected as a real and meaningful career, Ibrahim said having a global brand like Fenty Beauty present in Guyana is a big step forward for the local beauty industry and for Guyanese makeup artists.

She noted that the arrival of Fenty Beauty will create new opportunities for artists through education, collaborations, events and professional growth.

“It also inspires the next generation of makeup artists to see that the beauty industry in Guyana has the potential to grow and be part of the global beauty community. Fenty Beauty being here shows that our market and our talent are being recognized.”

To ensure that she deliver top tier artistry in her newest portfolio, the Guyanese MUA underwent Fenty Beauty and Fenty Skin training in Barbados where she learned more about the skincare and the artistry behind the makeup.

She told this newspaper “We truly appreciate the time, training, and guidance. Everything we learned is coming straight back to our community.”

For Ibrahim, seeing Fenty Beauty here feels like a full circle moment.

“It is a brand that helped shape my journey as a makeup artist, and I am excited to see the opportunities it will bring for artists and beauty lovers across Guyana,” the MUA added.
