I played with my mom's make up all the time when I was younger and now i'm 24 years old and working as a freelance make up artist. 3 years and counting... :)<br /><br /><br /><br />Kisses!<br />EllenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32592449.post-39832255122637633312012-10-05T17:07:35.787-06:002012-10-05T17:07:35.787-06:00I don't recall ever using my mother's make...I don't recall ever using my mother's makeup but when I was 13 she bought me a purple (yes green eyes, lol)Rimmel eye shadow set and I was in heaven. Oh the fun I had with that. <br /><br />I have loved makeup since and always wanted to work with it or become a hairdresser. My mother was an academic and told me it would be a terrible profession (true). I then went on to get a Social Sceince degree and an MBA and was bored out of my mind. I finally went to school at 22 with a small child on my hip and got a Film and Television Makeup degree and worked in that field for years. I love makeup. Fullstop. And I have loads of it to this day. Strangely enough though I have never worn eye shadow (and that is really odd when you think about it). Now my daughter of course is grown up and loves makeup too - she used to help me do large fashions shows when she was a teenager so she could easily be a makeup artist herself. Instead she chose the more traditional route of law instead. It goes full circle sometimes.<br /><br />PS While I am on the subject I would love to know your views about makeup bases/foundations. Not sure the correct term in the US. What brands do you prefer as always looking for something better.

I would write the names and brands and I tried to keep it in color order, but that proved hard. Make was definitely something to collect, and I think I'm similar to you in that it was a sign of my interest in colors and textures :)<br /><br />Great post!<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://www.fleur-d-elise.net" rel="nofollow">Fleur d'Elise</a>CatieBeattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17571587640019446735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32592449.post-50215430020463700982012-10-04T19:18:12.783-06:002012-10-04T19:18:12.783-06:00It's really inspiring reading through your sto...It's really inspiring reading through your story and how you came to this point. I love lipstick as well, especially bright colors and I think that usually shows in my illustrations as well. <br /> antohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589575125136031530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32592449.post-87941804595910068402012-10-04T19:01:46.356-06:002012-10-04T19:01:46.356-06:00I love this post so much for so many reasons.

You could probably help me out in this area--lipstick kinda scares me, lol.Oh to Be a Musehttp://www.ohtobeamuse.comnoreply@blogger.com
