LOS ANGELES—iWantEmpire brand ambassadors Jenna Sativa, Riley Reyes and Ash Hollywood are featured in the current issue of Allure magazine. The three adult stars joined iWantEmpire’s team of makeup artists in a feature about beauty, work and life in the adult industry.
“I was thrilled to be a part of such an interesting article,” Sativa said. “It gives readers a glimpse into the relationship between adult performers and the talented makeup artists who bring out our beauty and glamour, whether at an industry function or on set for a sexy shoot!”
The article, written by reporter Lynsey G. featured the artists sharing tips on how to stay glamourous on set. “If I'm eating ass, and [my co-star] gets her ass up and she wipes my face on her ass, it smears everything. I'm like, 'What the hell? Where's my contour?'” Sativa told the magazine.

Lynsey G also demonstrated the challenge facing make up artist Rebecca Lee Castro, who must show these superstars at their best. Lynsey G. wrote: “At events like the AVN Awards, though, the makeup has to last through long days of meeting eager fans, who expect a certain look from their favorite stars. "I need to match what their fans are seeing in their videos and online. I want to make sure that [performers] can bring that to the convention floor," Rebecca says. It can be a challenge, especially since lighting on show floors is provided by overhead fluorescents instead of carefully arranged set lighting.”
But for Riley Reyes, there is no substitute for great makeup: “When you're making the transition from the stress of your day, your drive over to the set, whatever—they put you in makeup and you become a star," she told the magazine. "I become 'Riley.’”
Even Ash Hollywood becomes a student of these beauty experts, the article revealed: “Makeup artistry, [Castro] says, is "basically painting." I listen as she educates performer Ash Hollywood about the differences between stippling and stroking pigment onto the skin, and it's clear Rebecca knows her stuff.”
“We always hire a team of makeup artists for our ambassadors and when we learned Allure wanted to tag along, we were happy to open the doors,” said Jay Phillips, co-founder and president of iWantEmpire. “All the artists did an amazing job. It’s a fun read with lots of insight.”
