Mary J. Blige - Elle Magazine Cover // Campaign

When it comes to talking beauty, there's no one better to talk to than the queen herself, Mary J. Blige. After years of questioning her own beauty, Blige began on a path to acceptance. "It's not just the hairstyles and the clothing and the skin," she says. "It's how I reinvent myself through trials and perseverance. Am I going to quit? No, I'm going to go to the next level." She's right: change is hard, but watching her transform has been nothing short of inspiring. ✨
