Candice, affectionately known as "Kendi," has always been captivated by the enchanting world of beauty. Her journey as a makeup artist began in 2011 when she graduated from Empire Beauty School, armed with the passion to make people feel confident and beautiful.

With over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, I’ve learned that true beauty isn’t just about how you look—it’s about how you feel.

My goal with every client is simple: to help you wake up feeling confident, refreshed, and like yourself, only better. After years as a nail instructor, I expanded my journey in Korea—where I trained in advanced permanent makeup and lash lift techniques. That’s where I truly fell in love with the art of enhancing natural beauty.

Today, I’m AAM-certified and fully licensed to perform PMU services in New Jersey, bringing both skill and heart to every appointment. If you’ve ever wished for effortless brows, fuller-looking lashes, or a way to feel more like you again after hair loss or skin challenges—this is your sign to book with me.

I’m here to offer more than just a service; I’m here to help you feel seen, empowered, and beautiful in your own skin.

Joining Feminink Beauty and Hudson Beauty Bar has been an incredible step forward, and I’m so excited to invite you into our space.

Let’s create something beautiful together—I can’t wait to meet you and be part of your transformation.
