Whats going on peepz?I am a makeup artist and this is my MYSPACE dedicated to my art, for networking with people ALL OVER THE WORLD! :D I'm in the process of building my portfolio up. I'd like to work with professional photographer's,agency leveled model's, wardrobe stylist's, and hair stylist's.I am available to do TFP/TFCD, only if the shoot will benefit my portfolio, however i do charge a reasonable Kit fee. (The majority of the brand of makeup I use is M.A.C.) Looking for paid work.I believe that makeup can help you feel great to look great. There are unlimited possiblities and there are no rules.I love the history and future of makeup. You no longer need to look like everyone else... only you. You are unique!I think that makeup should be fun, just embrace it! Candyshop Shoot - Photography by Gemma BettsAvailability update. I am only available on the weekends until further notice. **********************************************Mary Erickson - MODELS ADVICE BEFORE A PHOTOSHOOTMost professional model knows by experience about what needs to be done before a photo shoot. If you do not have a lot of modeling experience I suggest you look over the following list of things that will help you for this shoot and in the future. The more of these guidelines you follow the better your shots will turn out.1. 72 hours before your photo shoot, avoid the following items (these items can give you oily skin and swelling): a. Red meat b. Alcohol c. Caffeine d. Spicy foods e. Retin A and Alpha Hydroxy creams (causes skin peeling that will show with photo makeup) 2. Drink lots of water, carry it with you everywhere you go, and keep sipping. 3. Exfoliate your skin at least once a week and also the morning of the shoot. 4. Have your brows professionally shaped and then keep them up by plucking the strays every few days. I will Pluck strays the day of the shoot but may not have time to shape your brows. 5. It is a good idea to carry your own mascara to the shoot with you. Some make-up artists use mascara with the same wand on several people. This can spread infection very quickly. Unless you know the artist and know that she only uses disposable wands, it's best not to take your chances. I do use disposable wands!**********************************************Credits- CandyShop Girl band Photoshoot 2/04/08- Zhandra Rhodes Spring/Summer collection for Push magazine (out April 08)- Stuart Glover Music Video 11/03/08- Damilola Taylor Trust Fundraiser 2/03/08- Fashion Editor & Designers, Thomas Sels from SUPER SUPER & Scott Ramsay Kyle for London Fashion Week 12/02/08- Mavericks Film www.mavericksfilm.com - Short Commericial For Agency 11/07- Essence - The Bollywood Dance Spectacular 15/12/07 - who actually HAVEN't paid me as yet... ridiculous!
