In true Essence fashion, our 30th Essence Festival of Culture was a success, thanks to our dedicated staff down in New Orleans! From hip-hop classes, panels and front row seats to see Usher perform, our team was hard at work creating lifelong memories for our loyal supporters!
We spoke with Essence VP of Branded Content & Video, Stephanie Dunivan, Senior Beauty Editor Akili King, and Video Producer Yasmin Ramos on how despite her busy schedule prepping for the festival, she does not need to overthink her hydration with smartwater.
“Staying hydrated with smartwater helped me to not overthink my selfcare during my first Essence Festival weekend. It provided me with moments of clarity between editing articles doing on the ground interviews and moderating inspiring panels” King shared.
Life’s full of choices. smartwater is a simple one. Visit drinksmartwater.com to learn more.
