About Me 

Hey beauty! I'm Brandi Nelson, with B3 Artistry currently serving the Chicago area.  As a child I would always watch my mother and sister get ready and one of the most exciting parts for their routine was doing their makeup. When I turned 16 I was finally allowed to play in makeup and at first it was just for fun, but shortly after I realized how much I loved it. 

I am an alumni of King College Prep and graduated from DePaul University where I studied Communication Media and Cinema Studies. College was were I first began to explore my new found passion for beauty on to others. I began doing some of my friends makeup and I loved every bit of it. Seeing the way my hands could enhance another woman's natural beauty was exciting. Shortly after conducting these transformations BeatByBrandi artistry was born.

Even though BeatByBrandi is my heart I have grown and elevated with my clients over the years and now we go by B3 Artistry. No matter your shape, size, or insecurities B3 Artistry is here to service you. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I believe that every face I have the honor of touching is beautiful.

From my college years up until today I have transformed many faces and this is only the beginning. I plan on expanding my brand outside of Chicago for the world to see. I am seeking opportunities in television and film and want to work for a production company as their head makeup artist. I hope that my work and journey inspire others from all walks of life.

I will continue to share my experience to those that want to hear, and I will continue to beat faces as long as I live. My work is a representation of me: sultry, natural, sexy, bold, confident, and soft. I enhance features while still making women feel like themselves. I have an undeniable passion for beauty and I show that through every face that I touch.
