Dishing with Buff Faye

Beauty Queens & Drag Makeup


Listen Later

She’s glossy. She’s glamorous. She’s got contour for the gawds. This one is all about artistry, authenticity, and owning your beauty.

In Episode 17 of Dishing with Buff Faye, Buff Faye spotlights the art of beauty, pageantry, and drag makeup with featured guest Beverly Iman Johnson, owner of Queen B Beauty.

After a quick catch-up with Giovanni D. Diamond

on Valentine’s Day antics and modern dating (yes, Shady Cupid made an
appearance), Buff pivots to the glam.
Beverly takes us back to her early drag days in 1997 house pageants and legendary nights at Oleen’s — the drag version of Cheers — where community and artistry thrived.

She shares how drag helped her discover and refine her aesthetic prior to transitioning, and how that creative journey shaped her confidence and identity.

Buff and Beverly reflect on how they met at a Scorpio talent show, how Beverly encouraged Buff’s interpretive drag style, and how she helped plant the seed that led Buff toward Entertainer of the Year.

Beverly has even beat Buff’s face for pageants — and yes, Buff swears by her

blush and contour palettes.
From film and weddings to pageants, fashion
shows, and reality TV, Beverly does it all. Queen B Beauty offers lashes,
contact lenses, makeup supplies, and lessons — supporting queens and beauty lovers alike.

Support Black queer entrepreneurship year-round and beyond Black

History Month.
The episode wraps with a quick round of YASSS QUEEN and a beauty tip you’ll want to remember.
Eat It Up.
