We had the good fortune of connecting with Bachida Wilson and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Bachida, we’d love to hear about how you approach risk and risk-taking
Without risk how do you know where you’ll be in life? How do you know how far you’ll ever go ? I always say the biggest risk is not taking any at all! I truly would not be where I am now in my career if I hadn’t taken a leap of faith . My makeup journey started as just a hobby & while working in the medical field the only other career I knew , I found myself focusing more on my clients. I mean it was all I could think about . I dreamt, ate , breathed Makeup ! & it was at that point when I realized if I just take that risk & make my passion into a full time career I would never work a day in my life . With whatever obstacles that came with It was a risk I was surely willing to take ! And im so glad I did . I learned that when we live in fear we will never know our true potential .

Please tell us more about your work. We’d love to hear what sets you apart from others, what you are most proud of or excited about. How did you get to where you are today professionally. Was it easy? If not, how did you overcome the challenges? What are the lessons you’ve learned along the way. What do you want the world to know about you or your brand and story?
When you hear the name Makeup by chichi the vision I would like people to see is a passionate, dedicated, caring artist . Someone with integrity & who isn’t in the industry just for the money. From the start of my career in 2017 to now 2024 I learned a lot about being a business owner & the number one rule is to stay true to who you are because People love authenticity. Yes It comes with many challenges for an example your not always going to come across nice people ! & I say that loud! some battles you have to choose to fight . some you’ll win some you’ll lose but how you handle the challenge is what matters at the end & what will set you apart from your peers . If you’re a good person at heart it will always reflect in your art.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I’m such a simple gal! It doesn’t take much for me to have a good time . My favorite vacation spot is Miami so Il most likely go to a comedy show because laughter is good for the heart ! out for dinner & drinks later . Maybe a nice brunch the next day with some good soul r&b music to listen too! We can’t forget about a nice relaxing day at the beach to end it off.

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Running a business is not always easy however without the tremendous support from God , My loving husband and children I know I wouldn’t be where I am today .
