However, I underestimated the power of the word “Board” being taken literally, as in a board of directors. To clear up any confusion and better reflect our mission, I’ve decided to rebrand and rename our powerhouse team. So, without further ado, please allow me to introduce… THE BEAUTY COUNCIL! The Beauty Council is more than just a name change; it’s a commitment to excellence. As we move forward, here’s what you can expect from us: 2024 LONG ISLAND BEAUTY AWARDS BALLOT Our team has been hard at work, meticulously curating a ballot of nominees for the 2024 Long Island Beauty Awards. These nominees have been handpicked through public nominations, our own Beauty Council members' experiences and research, and thorough vetting to ensure only the best make the cut. DEDICATION AND INTEGRITY The Beauty Council has put in countless hours to make sure each individual or business on the ballot has truly earned their spot. We believe in recognizing excellence and integrity in the beauty industry, and we are dedicated to celebrating those who embody these values. ENGAGEMENT AND TRANSPARENCY We will continue to engage with the community, gather feedback, and ensure that the Long Island Beauty Awards remain a prestigious and respected event. Transparency and fairness are at the heart of everything we do. We embrace this new chapter and cannot wait to see the amazing things we will accomplish together. Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm! INTRODUCING BY LINDSAY ALISEO Sometimes, even the best ideas need a little tweaking, and that's exactly what happened with the name for our incredible team of women who work tirelessly for the Long Island Beauty Awards.

We work tirelessly to build relationships with global and national brands, surgeons, med spas, hair salons, boutiques and wellness facilities. Our goal is to gain the trust of everyone we work with, bridging gaps and fostering stronger relationships within the community. BEAUTY AFFAIR PHILANTHROPY Beauty Affair prides itself on using the platform to raise money for worthy causes. When there's a room full of successful people, there's always an opportunity to give back. Still in its infancy stages, beauty affair magazine participates in multiple not for profit events, supporting charities such as Hair We Share, the Long Island Coalition Against Bullying, Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund and Pink Aid. Our annual Bougie Brunch Auction is another highlight, hitting an all-time high of over $40,000 in beauty, fashion and wellness products and services. In 2023, this event benefited the local nonprofit Hair We Share, and this year our chosen charity is the Carol M. Baldwin Breast Cancer Research Fund. BEAUTY AFFAIR EVENTS Bougie Brunch: This event brings small businesses and potential clients together to celebrate beauty, featuring a special celebrity guest and a beauty auction. Past co-hosts include Bravolebrities like Sonja Morgan, Melissa Gorga and Margaret Josephs. Long Island Beauty Awards: Born out of a passion for the industry, the first LIBA event took place on January 22, 2024. It was a glamorous evening of dancing, networking and honoring the best in the business. Long Island Beauty Expo: Coming this March to Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Beauty Affair Magazine is partnering with Long Island Exposition to bring you an interactive and educational experience. Expect celebrity panels, educational breakouts, provider education, mommy makeovers and community beauty education, all designed to cater to small businesses and the local community. THE BEAUTY COUNCIL Formerly known as The Beauty Board, the Beauty Council is a team of women brought together by Lindsay, founder of Beauty Affair, to create the most authentic and credible ballot for the Long Island Beauty Awards. These women are experts in their fields, successful business owners and passionate volunteers who dedicate their time to celebrating the industry’s successes. BEAUTY AFFAIR MAGAZINE Our magazine continues to round out Beauty Affair's efforts. Dawn and Lindsay, the magazine’s managing partners and co-publishers, pride themselves on the content they produce. They bring community insight, the latest trends and education all together in one place. Beauty Affair is more than just a platform it's a community dedicated to celebrating and elevating the beauty, fashion and wellness industries. Through our various initiatives, we aim to make a positive impact, cultivate connections and support those who make our community beautiful. Join us on this journey and let’s make Long Island a more beautiful place… together.
