Ego Stroking

Tracy Ewell Cosmetics and Skincare Opens

You’ve outgrown your britches when:
a) Your reputation precedes you.
b) You can’t fit into them anymore.
c) Squinty-eyed strangers stop to tell you so.

Here’s hoping that makeup whiz Tracy Ewell doesn’t cross any old geezers now that she’s opened a shop of her own in Inman Park. (So audacious!)

Ewell and her business partner (and sixth-grade BFF), Natalie Essaied, offer everything from makeup lessons and pro eyebrow arching (a steal at $20) to seasonal makeup change-outs in a fresh, airy space.

The beauty bar is set up buffet style, which will please the kid in you, while high-end lines like Caudalie, Susan Posnick, and Face Stockholm satisfy your grown-up tastes.

As if she’d leave us anything to scoff at.

Tracy Ewell Cosmetics and Skincare, 775 Lake Avenue, Inman Park (404-588-9151 or tracyewell.com).
