Get What You Want and Be Imaginative. Feb 1/2012

Something fun about being a makeup artist is the ability to mix, create, and be imaginative! Don't get me wrong, I love a fresh new palette of shadows or lip colours but there is something exciting about mixing and creating your own tints and colours. Wether I'm applying my own or applying makeup for a client, I love to cocktail different colours, shades, and textures. One of my favourite combos is cherry red lipstick+gold lipstick+burgundy lipstick (pea size each), swirl em up and you get a sexy rose gold shade! This is really nice for an evening lip. Take a matte shadow to shimmer, bubble gum to hot fuchsia, or green shadow to aqua. Intensify or tone down any shade with a little magic mixing. Makeup is meant to be fun and its easy to get into a routine of applying basic colours. If you love "cocktailing" tints and are proud of your creations, place them in clean jars/containers. Name them as you see fit and label them up. Don't just wear makeup, Mix It Up!
