Happy Makeup Monday Family!!!! As Shug says In the New "Color Purple" movie, It's a shame to be surrounded by the Color Purple and not Appreciate it!!! Well Fam, In Admiration for All Shades of #Purple, today for #MakeupMonday , let me take you Behind the Scenes of the Holiday Issue of @Essence Magazine as "The Color Purple Continues"!!! Doing a Shoot of this Magnitude requires a lot of Patience!!! Fam, It was a long day, Each #Actress had to be shot Individually and then all come together to be shot In groups!!!! During our down time we had Refreshments, Partook in a Healthy Lunch and had Conversations about our Excitement about how this "New" Color Purple Movie is going to Reel in a Whole New Generation of Fans!!! Well, I'm not going to keep you waiting, So Fam, Scroll Left <----- through the post, as I take you back to our All day shoot with the Essence Team, The #GlamSquad, and some Private Fun Footage on that Lengthy 12 hour Day!!!! #derrickrutledge #makeupmaestro #makeupartist #thecolorpurple #purplelove
