My passion for makeup artistry began in my late twenties, pretty sure it was during my 27th year. I had grown up with a mother with a sweet and simply cosmetic routine: mascara and pressed powder. About her day she went, and I admired from afar.
A decade later, I gained experience in the restaurant industry. One establishment I worked at required that women wear makeup. Shortly after, I had come to the realization that I actually liked wearing makeup. Not only did it make me look and feel better, I felt alive, and the tips started rolling in.
The magic of makeup is unreal, and can leave a woman feeling like a freaking movie star. It was the feeling and confidence behind the beauty that really inspired me to make it a dream of my own.
