I started Brenner Beauty as Bluebird Artistry about 16 years ago. As a 19 year old transplant to Atlanta from the NY, I felt out of my element and a bit lost. Frustrated with south’s slower (I’ll call it more relaxed pace so I don’t get kicked out,) and struggling to find my fit and my friends, my emotional wellbeing took a hit, and I had to find a way to remedy that.

I knew that the times I felt most whole and most safe were in community. Surrounded by friends and in spaces that had laughter, food, beautiful things.

Thank god I finally found those people. Took me a bit, but as my feet got rooted here and I started morphing my baby beauty business into a larger one, I became more : me. That sense of community was the grounding I needed to become.

Fast forward 16 years…

Brenner Beauty has grown into an intentional brand—one built on the principles of belonging, community, beauty, and wholeness.

At its core, my work isn’t just about makeup. It’s about creating spaces where women can connect, learn, and embrace the joy of self-expression.

In the midst of our busy lives, it’s easy to put ourselves last—to forget to slow down, try something new, or simply have fun. That’s why these moments matter. At the makeup workshops I hosted last quarter, I received feedback that truly touched my heart:

• “That was exactly what I needed—I don’t do things like this enough.”
• “I never thought I could do a smokey eye!”
• “My friends and I were so excited to get away from the kids and have a girls’ afternoon.”

Hearing this fuels my excitement even more.

Brenner Beauty isn’t just a makeup studio; it’s a space where you can come exactly as you are—and bring your friends.

Because joy often requires intention.

This is what matters to me, and. I know it matters to you too. Where else can we go to let our hair down. (and also for a wealth of dad jokes, sarrry.)

Book the class. Take the workshop. Start that hobby. Do whatever it takes to make time for yourself and try things you haven’t before. Meet people, do different things. This type of newness expands your world and helps you find your people.

💕I’ll also be here to cheer you on and provide more spaces for you to do that.💕

At Brenner Beauty, I’m excited to collaborate with other creators and inspiring women to bring you opportunities to learn and grow. 

and at the heart of everything I do is hospitality—helping you feel at home, whether you’re in my chair, in front of the camera, or embracing your best self. Finding new ways to bring this vision to life fuels my creativity and expands my work beyond just beauty. Doing that helps create spaces for real self care.

SO, join me as we host more amazing experiences, classes, and workshops. I’d love to hear how you are inspired to create this type of self care for yourself. (Read all the way to the end to see what means Real Self Care to me!)

Is it by coming in for a makeup lesson because you feel not so great in what your doing now? For a makeup application so you can take some new headshots and go for that big time position you’ve been drumming up the courage for. DO IT!

If yoga, or rock climbing, or opera singing or having 12 dogs feels (this seems stress inducing 😂) like the thing you need to jump of the ledge of living your best life. DO IT.

I promise it will open doors to new experiences and new people, and that self care isn’t always quiet or undone, or laid bare. Sometimes it comes in the form of a full set of lashes and a wild smokey eye.

You’ll see.

 Let me know by responding to this email or sharing your thoughts on social media on what Real Self Care looks like for YOU. I can’t wait to see you in the studio for your headshots, lessons, or you next milestone. Thank you for all your support, always, and for riding this fun wave with me.

XOXO.
