Thank you all for your support
“The desired effect in makeup can only be achieved if you employ the right techniques, choose the right color, and use the right tools.”
Makeup has always done amazing things for us. (I’m not saying women alone cuz it can do wonders for men too) Makeup not only improves our appearance but also make’s us feel better about ourselves. This may not apply to all. Some people are not used to or simply hate the idea of having makeup on their face. and that’s not a problem cuz I’ve seen MANY of my clients who are naturally gorgeous! Pretty smiles, sharp features, lovely eyes…etc
Being a makeup artist was something I NEVER in my 22 years, imagined I would be. I always thought I would be a Teacher. Well ok, since I’m giving makeup classes, I guess I AM still teaching
But to find that my passion, my true calling, my forte, lies in Makeup.. This, i had never dreamed. I don’t have any regrets. From nasty clients, to unhappy clients, to untrusting clients etc…
You people may think you have run me down by degrading me but really, You have only made me stronger, and I Thank You
You can’t please everyone in life. At the end of the day, I know I have done my part, my best, and if that doesnt make you happy, then I would sincerely apologize
A makeup artist will never (in my opinion), have learnt enough. You keep learning as you meet new clients, as you meet more professionals like yourselves. Someone once asked me “So now that your Diploma is done, what’s your next step?”
The steps to learning is never ending. You keep learning.
Learning new things,
learning from mistakes,
learning from others.
I have gotten to know few makeup artists over the years and it’s always fun being able to exchange tips and techniques. The ones that I absolutely abhor, are the snotty ones who think very highly of themselves just because they have done makeup for Celebrities.
And then people ask me, if I have ever dreamt of being a makeup artist for some high profile celebrity.
When I look at celebrities makeup, they look amazing of course.
Fresh, glowy, natural, etc
But as exciting as it may be to be able to doll up people of such status… Its just not ME
I am who I am, because of my fascination and passion for bright bold colours.
I’ve always loved having boldness stand out on your face interms of makeup and focusing on someone’s features.
That doesn’t mean I don’t do light looks cuz I do, of course. (One example is the post before THIS. Raziah’s bridal makeup)
But if the day comes that I was offered a huge sum of money to do makeup for some high profile celebrity who like’s natural looks.. I’d decline.
Money is nothing ..
Why let money over run my passion?
I won’t change my way’s just for money. I love what Im doing now
I really do
Meeting so many new faces every day. 99% of whom, are total gems, so friendly.
I’m often over worked…
For instance on Saturday I had wedding makeup for a couple which began at 630am and lasted till 1130pm. From photoshoots to dinner reception etc.
And the enxt day, Sunday morning, I had another shoot at 9am.
I often whine about being sleepy but not once do I complain about having to do my job.
Because you see…
THIS is my passion
THIS is what I love
and what i plan to do till I can’t anymore.
My passion really drives me to go all out and I have to REALLY say thank you to you guys for making ME feel special.
Your kind words of encouragement is what drives me to work harder and to never give up.
