I’ve been a fan of Oprah for a long time and truly admire her passion, caring nature, and all that she has accomplished in her life. She has made such a positive impact to many lives, including my own. I didn’t get a chance to attend her talk show when she was still in Chicago unfortunately (although I tried!), but I’m honored and ecstatic that O, The Oprah Magazine selected my application and 11 others this year to become an O Mag Insider (brand ambassador). This was out of thousands (thousands!!) of applications, so we’re talking about a less than 0.5% chance of being selected! I’m definitely adding this one to my list of accomplishments.

O Mag Insiders was established in 2017 and currently consists of a little over 60 members (including the recent selections). You can see my profile along with others in this link:

What does being an O Mag Insider mean?

According to their website, this means:

• Becoming an ambassador for O Magazine.
• Aligning with O’s key business initiatives.
• Trying new products before they hit the shelves.
• Gaining access to invite-only O events.
• Earning cool swag.

Besides all of this, one of the most important benefits is being part of a community with amazing people and building friendships and networking!

Since my birthday was this month, O Magazine sent me this amazing NARS Afterglow Eyeshadow Palette as a birthday gift! The colors are beautiful and perfect for natural or bold look. This palette is featured on page 46 of the O Magazine January issue. I didn’t expect to receive anything, so this was a really nice gesture and truly made my day!

I’m excited for this journey and to see what the year ahead will bring as an O Mag Insider!
