Ivory P. | MuvaMermaid

A city girl with global dreams, Ivory Perkins was born and raised in Washington, DC, where her eye for beauty, presence, and detail began forming long before she ever named it a career. Growing up in a city shaped by culture, visibility, and leadership, she learned how to move with confidence, adaptability, and discernment in spaces that require both polish and authenticity.

Ivory went on to establish herself as a professional freelance makeup artist, spending more than 17 years working across luxury bridal, television, film, and high-profile events. Known for her refined technique and calm, intuitive presence, she provided makeup and hair services for celebrities, authors, politicians, military elite, and other notable public figures. Her work has appeared across major platforms, including BET, CNN, Fox News, USA Today, National Geographic TV, and A&E Network, as well as in national and international print publications. In high-pressure, high-visibility environments, Ivory developed a natural ability to read energy, hold space, and help others feel grounded and confident when it mattered most.

The global pause of 2020 marked a significant turning point in her personal life. After closing her long-standing beauty business, Ivory entered a season of reflection that led her back to the spiritual practices that had always quietly guided her work. Meditation, intuition, energetic awareness, and intentional living became the foundation of a new chapter rooted in alignment rather than performance.

Today, Ivory is the founder and host of the Money Mindset Reset Course and Getaway retreats. She is a mindset and manifestation guide who curates intimate, luxury retreat experiences designed to help participants slow down, release old patterns, and reconnect with their clarity, power, and purpose. Her work blends guided mindset practices, spiritual reflection, rest, and community, creating experiences that feel supportive, grounded, and deeply nourishing.

Each retreat is intentionally small and thoughtfully curated, rooted in the belief that meaningful transformation happens when people feel safe, seen, and supported. Those who attend her retreats leave with renewed perspective, grounded confidence, and practical tools they can carry long after the retreat ends.
