An Empress with a Dream
Anastasia Barksdale had a dream of owning her own cosmetics line well before she knew what the name of it would be. In 2015, she met a gentleman and each time they crossed paths, he called her an Empress. This term of endearment, Empress, resonated with her and that's when it struck her – Empress would be the name of her cosmetics brand.
​
She felt that this term of royalty was befitting of who she is, what she represents, and how she wants everyone to feel when they use our products.
​
Since launching Empress Lipsticks & Fashion (ELAF) in 2016, we have expanded ELAF to having a fashion line including unisex beanies, bucket hats, lip care and more – catering to men and women alike!
