For many of us who haven’t worn a full face since around 2016, makeup seems like a lost art. Melanie Mills of The Makeup Altar is helping us find it again. The longtime television and movie makeup artist (and Emmy winner) has her own line of shining body products, but that’s just a small part of her treasure-filled East Nashville store. She has a bevy of professional beauty brands and tools as well as tarot cards, crystals and the like. Offering makeup classes and special-occasion glam, Mills is a trustworthy and encouraging guide on the path to enjoying makeup again.
