Artist Spotlight with Alison Raffaele

What is coming next for your line?
October 2nd marks the beginning of our 10th Anniversary Year, so to
celebrate we have 4 new eco-friendly products in development...A Pressed
Mineral Powder, a Luminizer, a Mascara and a new, improved version of our
Inner Glow. I'm hoping to launch them by 4th quarter '09/1st quarter '10.

Why do makeup artists love your line?
I think the reason why Alison Raffaele products are so popular with pro
artists is three-fold...1)they do the job quickly and easily, 2)they last
throughout the day with minimal touch-ups and 3)they are vegan/eco-friendly,
which is what a lot of talent is requesting these days.

What does "community" mean to you?
A heck of a lot! Makeup is a tough business all around, so it really
helps to have friends to turn to that understand what you are going through,
whether it is for support or good advice. No doubt there is a special place
in Makeup Artist Heaven for Michael and James for creating the Powder Group
Community for us :-)
