About
The history of Brenda Christian Cosmetics, Inc. is tightly related to the personal history of its founder, Brenda Christian. Brenda began her beauty career in 1979 by teaching natural nail care classes in Houston, Texas. She loved teaching and was strongly encouraged by her peers and clients to learn makeup artistry. Working in Houston’s hot, humid climate made Brenda realize that there was a real need for cosmetics and skin treatments that worked in every climate, not just New York and LA where the makeup professional communities were focused. In 1981, with a thirst for knowledge, and a desire to create a cosmetic line for her clients, Brenda began a simultaneous study at the arm chairs of some of the country’s most prominent cosmetic chemists and Hollywood’s most talented makeup artists. Among the first things she learned was that makeup artists were in need of many products which were not readily available in the marketplace. With a strong desire to help women achieve total self esteem, and the business background to build a team of professional makeup artists to achieve the dream of not just doing makeup for a short lived benefit, but teaching clients how to do their own makeup with step by step instruction, Brenda introduced her first product, a Soufflé’ Foundation. True to her commitment to her clients, Brenda focused her energy on teaching real women; one by one in private classes how to apply makeup. Brenda would actually do a client’s eye and then carefully, patiently guide the client to duplicate her work. This grew into Brenda’s mantra, “Making a Professional Difference, One Face at a Time”.
In the fall of 1984, Brenda Christian Cosmetics expanded into a sourcing company for professional makeup artists. Brenda Christian Cosmetics enlarged its presence in the market with the creation of Brenda’s “flagship” product. The Perfect Brow® system was developed giving its user eyebrows that really looked fuller and very natural. This one color Universal Brow Definer pencil uses the pH in your skin to adjust its color to your own natural eyebrow hair color. The recipient of the international “GLAMOUR” Gold Award and a recipient of the London Times “Top Ten Products to be Imported into Europe”, Brenda’s Perfect Brow system is unparalleled within this industry.
As President and CEO, Brenda’s philosophy is simple: “I love creating cosmetic solutions for my clients, making a real difference, elevating their self esteem. That’s what it’s all about for me. It is my passion! I thrive on creating a product to meet a specific need for one of my clients. However, what I enjoy most is sharing the solutions and teaching. It does not matter whether it is another professional aesthetician, a makeup artist, a physician, a model, an actress or one of my private clients”. For years, cosmetic companies have manufactured makeup and skin care products in order to sell these in large quantities through advertising and promotion. Women, who purchased these products, were actually purchasing a “dream” but soon realized they did not know how to use the products they had just purchased. That is why Brenda Christian has chosen to market her products through professional estheticians, cosmetologists, and makeup artists, who then service their clients with Brenda’s products. This is her way of making the ‘dream’ come true!
