FREE MAKE UP, I THINK NOT!



Time and time again, in the entertainment industry, most view the job as fun, which it is, however does this now mean that our artistry is not valued as a real job? When is asking for the hook up i.e. something for Free ever okay especially from someone you don't know. Okay, I know your sitting there asking yourself, what is she talking about. Well here it is, as a make up artist, I have come across alot of different types of people, ones who value the artistry of make up and understand the importance of a make up artist and then there are those, who look at our job as just something fun to do, not really a real career,as if we Play make up etc. well I for one am offended by that, or by anyone who thinks that artistry of any kind, whether it be music, singing, poetry, painting, is not a career. Creative minds put just as much effort,time, and dedication in their career, as a doctor,psychologist,astronaut,lawyer,or therapist. Artistry is not a hobby, we are just as passionate about our craft as anyone would be in any profession. Now to completely understand where I am coming from, here goes, time and time again, I receive calls from total strangers, asking for free services, such as if you do the make up for free, you will receive the pictures, well for one if I am apart of the production, I am owed the pictures. Also,alot of calls, asking for free make up services for charity, understand, I do not have a problem helping those in need nor those that I know, but complete strangers and charities I've never heard of in my life, why? Then you have the people that know you through a good friend, which makes them think that their some how entitled to some kind of discount, why would you think you are entitled to a freeby a hook up or any discount of any kind because your friends with someone I know, I don't know you personally so why would I lower my price or give you any kind of discount. I apologize for venting,but its time someone speaks up for all of the artist out there! THE BOTTOM LINE IS, RESPECT OUR CRAFT, THE SAME WAY WE RESPECT YOURS, WITH CASH, CREDIT CARD OR POSTAL MONEY ORDER. -THAT IS ALL.

SMOKEY EYE OR SMOKED OUT. (HOW TO KEEP A YOUTHFUL LOOK)

Smoking is one of the worst things that we can do to our bodies. The health effects of tobacco smoking are related to direct smoking, as well as secondhand smoking. Smoking contributes to a long list of health issues, Heart Disease is one of the main side effect from smoking, as well as an increase in your blood cholesterol level etc. Not only does it increase the risk of cancer and heart disease but it you have a family, secondhand smoking can also damage their health as well.
Smoking is  not only bad  for your health, but also for your beauty and youtfulness of your skin.. It decreases the flow of blood to the skin, leaving your complexion dull and dry, it promotes wrinkles and fine lines,  and deprives your skin of oxygen and robs your body of essential vitamins. Thats usually  why smokers in their 30s have as many wrinkles as non-smokers in their 50s. Those who smoke every day get more wrinkles all over their face because of the nicotine  it constructs the tiny capillaries that nourish the skin. Smoking ages skin faster than anything else apart from sun damage and lack of a daily skin care regiment.. Smoking contracts your blood vessels and therefore doesn’t allow enough oxygen to reach the skin’s surface, resulting in dull-looking skin. Smoking really breaks down the body in so many ways. If your look is important to you. your health should be also. Who wants a smokey eye on a wrinkly dried out eyelid, where's the beauty in that? Stay smoke Free, and keep your beauty!

Kissable Lips Cosmetics VS MAC cosmetics


Aa a licensed professional make up artist, the number one question I get asked on a regular basis, is what type of make up do you use and why. As we all know there are millions of product lines out there, a lot of them Great, and some that are just okay. In all my years as a make up artist, I've tried almost every product there is on the market, and found that most are very similar. However through my experience, my personal preference is Kissable Lips Cosmetics. All of Kissable Lips Cosmetics products are water-based and hypoallergenic. Most of the products also contain Vitamin A and SPF15 for those with dry skin. A lot of my personal clients like to compare us to MAC because of the vibrancy of our colors. I know you may ask well what is the difference between Kissable Lips Cosmetics and other brands, well there are a couple of answers: 1) Kissable Lips Cosmetics is designed for everyday use, meaning it is not extremely heavy and does not contain harsh chemicals and ingredients that may be harmful to the skin.2)The products contain Vitamin A and SPF15 which protect the skin. 3)Kissable Lips Cosmetics also carries mineral products that are great for the skin.4) Each product contain vitamins which maintains your skins health and youthfulness.5)The products vibrancy and truth to its color is an added bonus, which allows you to preserve your product. With the colors being so vibrant and pigmented a little definitely goes a long way.Also the price is much more affordable than MAC. Mac has a lot of great products, however they are not the only brand in this world. For people that are really not make up experts Mac is there logical answer when it comes to make up, however what most fail to remember is, you have to try a product first to know if you like the product. Most women get so stuck on a particular brand and are afraid to step outside the box and try new things, make up is all about creativity and enhancing your natural beauty, so do not let one brand confine nor determine your beauty. Be Bold, Be Beautiful, Be Daring and try something NEW, who knows you just might like it!

MAKE UP IS A CAREER NOT A HOBBY

OKAY, AS A MAKE UP ARTIST, I GET ALOT OF PEOPLE THAT COME UP TO ME AND SAY GEEZ YOUR JOB MUST BE FUN, AND INDEED IT IS. THE ONLY PROBLEM I TEND TO COME ACROSS FROM TIME TO TIME IS THE FACT THAT SOME PEOPLE DON'T VALUE OUR WORK, SOME PEOPLE LOOK AT OUR JOB AS A HOBBY AND NOT AS A CAREER. WHAT I MEAN BY THIS, IS JUST LIKE YOU GO TO YOUR 9 TO 5 AND EXPECT A CHECK, WE EXPECT A CHECK TOO. OUR JOB IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS ANY CORPORATE JOB, WE LIKE TO GET PAID FOR OUR EFFORTS JUST AS YOU DO, SO WHY IS IT, WHEN IT COMES TO MAKE UP SOME PEOPLE LOVE TO TRY TO PULL THE BARTERING CARD? WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?
