Just wondering if there are any makeup artists out there who do this? I was thinking of using my middle name in place of my last name, as it has more of a ring to it & is more gender specific. But does this cause complications when it comes to clients writing cheques, etc..? Any advice would be...

Is there anywhere in Victoria, BC that still sells Make Up For Ever? Any Shoppers Drug Mart locations? The Bay? Sears? Or is Vancouver the only option? Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone! I haven't been very active on Specktra for a looong time now.. So I thought I'd come back with some pics of my Freelance Kit! I splurged & got the MAC Zuca bag a few months ago. So far it's working for me, but I can definitely see myself outgrowing it, as I still have LOTS to buy...

I thought it would be nice to have a thread that answers how those who have video tutorials go about creating them. Sort of a Q&A type of thing. For example, What camera do you use? (Webcam, Digital, DSLR, Camcorder - what model?) What settings do you find work best? (FPS, ISO, etc.) What...

so after seeing what Julia & a few other members did with their MALM dressing tables, i HAD to get one. i'm still waiting for another trip to IKEA to pick up some new lamps & a new mirror. i'm also not too crazy about my brush holders - they're a little on the small side.. but it works for now...

helloo again. 2 looks today! the 2nd one is my new hair. my friend is in hair school right now, so lately i've been her guinea pig! we coloured it a chocolate brown, but it went a little too dark for my liking.. so hopefully it fades out a bit! let me know what you think! (the blonde things are...

long time no post!! i had an interview with MAC yesterday for p/t makeup artist & i'll know by thursday if i got it or not!! *crosses fingers* i haven't figured out the settings for my canon just yet, so the e/s looks a bit washed out & muddy in some of the pics. LOOK 1: eyes: beige-ing s/s...

so i just got news that my city is FINALLY getting a counter at The Bay. they are advertising that they are hiring, but i'm completely clueless on where to submit my resume? somewhere in the current cosmetics dept? customer service? i don't want it ending up in the wrong person's hands &...

to get ready for work in the AM? i'm currently working in a cosmetics department & i find it really tough to find time to do full-face every single morning. (add in the time it takes to have decent looking hair & i'm hooped!) i'm borderline anemic (realllyyy low iron. i always feel fatigued), so...

Did you ladies end up watching it this year? I was kind of disappointed to see all of the dark wintery colours in comparison to the bright, fun colours they used last year. But it was still a good show! & the Spice Girls performance was cute. Lip synched, but nonetheless cute.
