Known for her stunning advertisements and red carpet perfection looks April Chaney is a makeup pro with nearly seventeen years in the business of making beautiful faces. A southern belle from Birmingham, Alabama Chaney is an esthetician at heart that took a nod from beautiful palettes of flawless skin and created art using make up as her tool.

She collaborates frequently with L’Oreal and on various industry award shows, including the Emmy’s, Golden Globes, SAG Awards and The Academy Awards.

Personal Skincare Philosophy

 “Great Skin creates a Great Canvas For Makeup”

BYM: What’s Your Favorite Spa?

My sister lives in Phoenix so some of my favorites spas and resorts are located there. We attended the Fairmont Princess last year during her wedding the customer service was glorious, atmosphere and entire Resort was spectacular.

BYM: What’s your favorite spa treatment?

Sugar Scrubs are some of my favorites for the body. It’s a great exfoliation I also love herbal oil treatments… They are great treatments for any ailments. My grandmother used them on me as a child when I sprang my ankle.

BYM:  Favorite Esthetician?

My teacher from when I attended esthetics school, her name is Fe Bueno she has a long extensive resume and has worked for major cosmeceutical companies such as Dermalogica  and Cosmedix. I still continue to text her and ask her questions on skin care and treatments. She also teaches me a lot on reflexology and Chinese Medicine. The woman is a Genius when it comes to the largest organ on the body, THE SKIN.
