Hey Make Up Lovers
Fashion has Vogue and we have Make Up Artist Magazine. This magazine is amazing, it is filled with so much information including information you didn’t even know you wanted to know. It is filled with new products, tips and ticks, interviews from world renowned MUAs and amazing make up on up and coming movies. A subscription is only $24.95 (USA) for a year!
Just found out about a book called Extreme Beauty in Vogue.

This is the cover…..totally want to get it!
“The one hundred or so featured prints reveal profoundly sensual and highly provocative narratives that bear witness to complex cultural attitudes toward female appearance and self-expression.”
I hardly ever read really only post but I felt the need to just vent out a little. If you didn’t know already I have a real job (9 to 5er!!! eek) I am trying to do make up full time and I have been trying to “keep on trucking” but boy can it get though sometimes. I have been so unproductive the last few weeks - even with just updating this blog! I haven’t done someone else’s make up for a job for a few months now. I know I should be drawing on my face every night when I get home but the truth is sometimes I am just so beat!
I have been having calls with two of my friends every week. It is just kind of like a pep talk for each of us so we know we are not alone in pursuing our dreams. They have been helping and I am trying to be more on top of things. I just can’t wait for when this is ALL I will need to worry about and not work the next day.
Breathing…
The other day I decided to do a make up look from my own head. I kind of just made it up as I went along. This is what I came up with.

I am oddly obsessed with it. I can not figure out if it because I am in love with it or hate it. I think I love it, there are things I want to change of course. I think this is a look I am going to have to play around with. Everyone that I have showed so far has liked it. They say it looks editorial/high fashion ish. By the way - my lips are covered in gold giltter :D !!
I love opinions….please share yours :)
