My Beginning

I recently started my business as a Makeup Artist. I had fallen in love with makeup ever since I used to watch my mother doing hers. I love matching colors and making the eyes look different. 
As the time passed by I was introduced to the Mary Kay cosmetics. Mary Kay was a big influence to my passion for makeup. I decided to start my own Mary Kay business in 2007. It was only to buy my own products at 50% off. I wanted all the makeup products. I started going to the meetings where they had makeup classes. I knew I had to be there. I learned the basic makeup but it was only for me to do on myself. I never imagined doing it on other people.
I started taking makeup very serious when people started asking for makeup classes. I would only teach them a basic and they would buy the product. I thought it was a good idea to start my own business as a makeup artist but I was more focused on becoming a police officer first. Too bad that dreams don't always come true. I was denied the application of becoming a police officer. I was depressed and thought I wasn't going to do anything. I quit school and was jobless.
My MK Director noticed I had a passion for makeup and she gave me the idea on starting passing out my business cards saying I do makeup for special occasions. I went beyond that. I made fliers and started passing them on.
Now I have people asking me for prices and setting up dates for their events and I also started school for Esthetics. I am learning more and putting all my knowledge in my work.
I love being a Makeup Artist. If you have any questions feel free to reach me :)
