Antigua and Barbuda will be represented by distinguished makeup artist and businesswoman Charity Henry at the prestigious 8th Annual Miss International Elegant Mothers Pageant. The event is scheduled to take place on March 14th at the ALEEZE Event Hall in St. Maarten/St. Martin.
Henry, a mother of two children, has articulated that her primary motivation for participating extends beyond personal achievement. She aims to serve as an inspirational figure for young girls throughout the Caribbean, encouraging them to recognize and pursue their fullest potential.
A native Antiguan, Henry’s professional journey in the beauty industry commenced at the remarkably young age of 13. Her academic leadership was previously demonstrated when she served as Head Girl at All Saints Secondary School. She has since cultivated a significant regional reputation, particularly renowned for her expert carnival makeup artistry. Her entrepreneurial endeavors are expanding to include a diverse range of beauty services and a forthcoming cosmetics line.
Her accolades in the pageant world include securing the titles of Miss Teenage in 2017 and Miss Labour Queen in 2022. Professionally, Henry is currently employed as a makeup artist for the renowned Fenty Beauty brand at Lipstick Antigua, all while simultaneously developing her own independent beauty brand.
The coronation ceremony promises to be a gala affair, commencing with a red carpet event at 7:00 p.m., followed by the main show at 8:00 p.m. Ticket options are available starting at US$30 for general admission purchased in advance, with VIP access priced at US$50.
