Christina Flach: Finds Pleasure in All Parts of Her Life

January 03, 2021 • Steve Ploum, Catherine Chinnock / Christina Flach • Season 1 • Episode 23

Today, Steve and Catherine interview celebrity makeup artist, Christina Flach, and unless you've been living under a stone, you have seen her work before. She's made up a wide swatch of folks, ranging from televison and movies stars, politicians, celebrity cooks, pop stars and heavy metal bands. As the founder and CEO of Pretty Girl Makeup, she gets her creative on in all sorts of manners and has found happiness all along the way in even the most mundane tasks. She's also at the helm of Sepsis awareness given that her tennis champion husband, Ken Flach, died of Sepsi suddenly just a few years ago. Still, she has made sure that, despite losses that many call tragic, she finds pleasure living her life as an Ugg-wearing, sometimes frumpy, mini-van driving mom of five who can dish it out as a soap opera digest columnist too.
