Are you tired of trying to fit yourself into commonly held notions of what is beautiful, or buying into the promotion of the month at the cosmetic counter? Have you spent time thinking a new lipstick or the 'new' color of the season would deliver the missing link and you would finally feel beautiful?
It doesn't work like that. What works is the recognition of all of the things that make you uniquely you. There is no one else in this world who is like you. Why not give up the quest for a kind of beauty that in truth has come to look mass produced, as if spilled from a cookie cutter, and instead enhance what belongs to you and you alone?
Cheryl Hilliard brings four decades of expertise gained in the worlds of beauty and fashion in New York, London, Paris, Los Angeles, and Miami to her business, Beautiful You. She recognizes beauty that others might not even be aware of, and brings that out in ways that are lovely and ultimately empowering.
Cheryl's technique for illuminating faces comes from the use of details little known outside of international beauty and fashion circles. She focuses on what makes each person unique and special, then brings those qualities out with what appears to be very little cosmetic enhancement.
With a light touch, Cheryl will teach you how to apply cosmetics that illuminate, and erase years. Having nothing to do with trendy, and everything to do with what is classically lovely, Cheryl will bring out your very best and teach you to do the same. For those considering plastic surgery, she may resolve the issue with cosmetics. If surgery is chosen, she will enhance the new you with care, creating even more beauty.
Cheryl will go through your existing wardrobe putting together pieces in new and different ways. Eliminating what doesn't work, and shopping for necessary additions. She will shop with you or for you and leave you with the confidence to always shop from self-empowerment.
Unflattering eyewear is like an unpleasant frame on a work of art... detracting. Cheryl will cut out the guesswork and help you to make the finest, most enhancing selections.
Scent is personal and conveys so much on obvious and subliminal levels. Nothing is worse than scent that overpowers or delivers the wrong message. Do you have a signature scent that leaves thoughts of you as you move through your days and nights? Cheryl will find just the right scent. One that is memorable and expressive of all that you are.
Cheryl takes appointments for make-up applications, lessons, bridal make-up at the wedding venue, wardrobe consultation, personal shopping (for women and men), perfume/scent and eyeglass frame selection.
Her work has been written about in two books and she is the author of Getting Real. This quote from Getting Real pretty much sums it up: ' A male client once told me that he found it hard to give himself permission to look good. How often and in how many areas of your life do you deny yourself permission?'
Cheryl is available for bookings at your location and at Kimberla's Bridal in Madison, VA. Kimberla has beautifully created Central Virginia's only full service bridal salon, which will be offering destination wedding/honeymoon packages in the Fall of 2007. Cheryl is also available for appointments out of state and out of the country.
Let go of the trendy, get out of 'the same old, same old' rut. Make an appointment with Cheryl and see beautiful you realized.

Reading this wonderful book is truly a life-changing experience. Covering almost every aspect of life, its pages are filled with not only with very practical advice for day to day living, but also with so many spiritual insights. Using her own first-hand experiences as both a model in Paris, and a Personal Image Consultant in Beverly Hills, the author gently guides the reader through simple steps to enhance appearance, style and health, through make up, clothing and diet. The suggestions are so straightforward and easy to follow, that each page boosts the confidence and leaves the reader with the impression of having his/her own personal consultant at hand. But 'Getting Real' doesn't stop there! The author leads the reader from the outward appearance to the underlying source of beauty within. With chapters on creating a more orderly environment, clearer ways of thinking, sex and music, Cheryl Hilliard unobtrusively reaches to the soul in a manner rarely experienced. This inspiring book is unique in its holistic combination of spirituality and everyday life, and with each page the reader has the feeling that he/she truly is Getting Real."
