Christopher Drummond is no stranger to color-matching makeup. When he was a fashion model, makeup artists never seemed to be able to match his coloring correctly. This led to his beginning as a pro makeup artist, and eventually creating his own pro makeup line. The line (www.christopherdrummond.com) is the only luxury makeup line that is all natural, organic and vegan that caters to all skin tones and colors. “The first luxury all natural line that isn’t afraid to cater to ethnic skin tones,” Drummond says.
“I knew that I could do better than what was out there.” Drummond remembers, “for years, I had looked for the right makeup: a high quality product that was comparable to the Chanel’s and Dior’s on the market, but I wanted more. I wanted the colors to be made for me. I wanted the ingredients to be all natural. I wanted animal-friendly ingredients and tools. It didn’t exist. Anywhere. So, I did what I do best, I took the bull by the horns, and made a line that surpassed my high standards.”
Drummond is an established makeup artist with the passion and time to show: 15 years of runway, film, print, and lifestyle work. This coupled with the fact that he has been a licensed esthetician for 10 years adds that much more credibility. He also has marketing, product development and packaging development experience, and is a personal makeup artist for many of New York’s Elite and famous.
Considered a “Beauty Lifestyle Expert,” he is looking to do more than just paint faces, he wants to change lives. “I am a strong believer that superficial beauty washes off; real beauty lasts forever….”

Featuring a new Lavender scented argan oil soap and an argan oil and papaya exfoliating face masque, this new product line reflects the green reputation that the company has earned.
Argan Oil is a rare and difficult oil to obtain. This wonderful natural oil is found exclusively in southwestern Morocco. It is known as “liquid gold” and has been used by the Berber women of Morocco for hundreds of years for its beneficial use in skin, hair, nail, and therapeutic treatment. Deemed the new “It’ beauty ingredient of 2009 research has shown that argan oil helps diminish fine lines and wrinkles, protects skin and hair from free radicals, and gives skin and hair a healthy, glowing appearance.
“We donate part of our income to Global Fund for Women,” said James Moore, owner of Cultural Connections, LLC, an Orlando, FL based manufacturer of fine argan oil based skin and hair care products.

It has been estimated that over three million people derive their incomes from the economy created by argan oil and its products.
Global Fund for Women is an international network of women and men committed to a world of equality and social justice. They have granted over $73 million in 168 countries to improve the lives of women, and will donate to 123 women’s rights organizations over its next funding cycle.
