Make up
For me make-up is my main tool. I couldn't be a make-up artist if I had no make-up to work with. I work with a lot of different types of make-ups and also many different companies. The make-up I work most with and I like the most is from a company I can’t write on a website because of the company marketing rules, but however if you are interested and want to know which make-up this is or want to buy it, write me an email on my contact page.
There are some factors that divide good quality make-up from lower quality make-up. Aloe Vera is very important ingredient in good quality make-ups. I always tend to find natural skin care or make-up products, which are usually more expansive than other “mainstream” make-up found on today’s market. But natural make-ups have lesser quantity of chemical ingredients, therefore there is less chance of allergic reaction on the skin. I work with many girls all the time and I’ve never had an allergic reaction on anyone yet. I always ask several questions about their skin, colors they like and many times also if they have any allergies on the specific foods. This information helps me to chose the best make-up and skin-care for each individual. Before applying make-up I always prepare the skin with massage and Aloe Vera lotions and special filtrated Aloe Vera gel. This way the skin gets prepared for make-up and also I need an increased blood circulation and to open the skin pores because I always use natural make-ups that are made with Aloe Vera and they (up to some level) absorb into the skin.
I always apply very little of the make-up. Foundation is always applied in such thin layers that girls usually don’t feel like they even had any foundation on their face. This is very important when I do wedding make-ups. Make-up shouldn’t make the bride tired, but instead it’s better if she doesn’t even feel the make-up on her face.
Aloe Vera in the make-up protects the skin and believe it or not, it even helps the skin rejuvenate. Even though some experts would say that make-up isn’t good for skin or that foundations dry out the skin. I must say that a high quality and natural make-up with Aloe Vera, Jojoba and sea minerals which I always use, are VERY good for the skin. Some of girls even told me that next day after they had my make-up on their face they noticed their skin was cleaner and also reduced the problems with acne.
Keep in mind that it’s always a good choice to buy better quality make-ups even if they cost a bit more, after all it is your skin!
