✨ WE’RE EXCITED TO POUR INTO THE NEXT GENERATION! ✨

5 Star Beauty Collection is honored and excited to announce that we will be joining Career Day at Bassette Elementary School! 🎓💫

At 5 Star, we don’t just build brands… we build leaders, dreamers, and future entrepreneurs. This opportunity means everything to us because it allows us to give back, inspire young minds, and show students that their dreams are valid, possible, and powerful.

💼 From Beauty Practitioner
📚 To Professional Student
💡 To Entrepreneur & Brand Builder
🤝 To Community Advocate

We’re coming to share real-life experiences, lessons, and encouragement to help students understand that they can become anything they desire with passion, discipline, and belief in themselves.

🌟 Community is at the heart of everything we do.
This is bigger than business — this is about impact, legacy, and lifting others as we climb.

To the students of Bassette Elementary:
👉 Your ideas matter
👉 Your voice matters
👉 YOU matter

We can’t wait to meet you, inspire you, and remind you that greatness is already inside of you 💫

With love and purpose,
5 Star Beauty Collection + Elis Jai

✨ THANK YOU From the Bottom of My Heart ✨
MGM GRAND BALLROOM | WeModel USA

ELLIS JAI LIPS 💋 WAS IN DISPLAY!

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who came out to the MGM to support the fight against human s*x trafficking and to everyone who stopped by the 5 Star Beauty Collection table. Your love, your presence, and your support mean more than words could ever express.

I met so many incredible people, but I want to take a very special moment to recognize one extraordinary woman…

✨ Ms. Maryland United World 2025 ✨

Queen, THANK YOU.
Your beautiful words of encouragement touched my heart in the most unexpected way. Not only are you stunning on the outside—crown, gown, poise, and confidence—but what moved me the most was the humility and genuine kindness you carried with you.

With such a strict schedule and so many eyes on you, you still took the time to stop, speak life into me, and offer real support. For that, I am eternally grateful. What started as a simple picture—because let’s be honest, you were absolutely radiant—turned into a conversation that went deeper, higher, and more divine than I ever expected.

Your words will stay with me forever. I look forward to watching your journey unfold, and trust me… you are a force to be reckoned with. A true Queen in every sense.

And let me not forget…

✨ Ms. TONI — BABY, YOU A WHOLE VIBE! 😂🔥
I LOVE YOUR ENERGY! ✨

Last night reminded me of something powerful:
Sometimes it’s not about monetary gain when you step into certain rooms. Sometimes—most times—it’s God’s plan and purpose connecting you to the right people, at the right time, for the right reasons.

No one offered me a seat at the table…
So God equipped me to build my own.
And through that process, He revealed who truly belongs at that table and who never should’ve had access to it in the first place.

It hurts when people you love don’t support you.
It stings when people you believed in don’t show up.
But pain has purpose—and purpose is a badge of honor from the Most High.

I wear my scars proudly.
I wear my lessons with gratitude.
And I honor this journey because God has been with me every step of the way.
