How Just Jill Beauty & Wellness was born
The Jill of Just Jill Beauty & Wellness is a recognized leader in the skin care and beauty community, with over 20+ years in the industry.
Jill started her career in beauty working at a makeup counter in Atlanta. It was here that she discovered her passion for building confidence in people, especially women. as well as her natural skill as a Makeup Artist.
Thus began a journey into making a career out of cosmetics.
To take her career to the next level, Jill moved to Los Angeles and enrolled in world-renowned makeup school, Makeup Designory (MUD). Her talent and drive got her hired on her first film set before graduating. Most famously on the Sundance award winner, ‘BRICK.’
In 2009, a drunk driver hit Jill’s rental car head-on at a speed of 90 miles per hour.
The accident left her with neck and back injuries, chronic inflammation, and broken bone in her ear. She was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. To help in her recovery, a therapist recommended adopting a service animal. After searching for the perfect companion, Jill found Stella – It was love at first sight! Jill adopted Stella and trained her into a certified service animal for PTSD.
Slowly, Jill began to heal and think about her future. She went back to school and became a Medical Esthetician. Then moved to Austin, TX and opened Just Jill Beauty and Wellness.
From her experience in Hollywood and working with a range of products, she began to conceptualize a collection of makeup and skincare products.
