Emma Mae
Miss Emma Mae is the nom de plume of a woman that claims to be old enough to have the patent for dirt and to have gone down the wrong road so many times it was named after her.
She works as an engineer by day and confides her attempts at becoming beautiful in her articles as a Beauty Guru. She also tends to share tidbits of her life that leave you wondering if the woman can find her way out of a shower, hence the need for a pseudonym. She has been a Shine Beauty Guru since 2010 and looks forward to sharing her quirky take on beauty.
