@greta_ag :I discovered makeup 7 years ago when I was studying Psychology, I was feeling so anxious since I was lacking a creative outlet in my life. I purchased LoveMagazine since Miley Cyrus was on the cover (super cool beauty profile picture with the new short haircut), loved her as a country singer. In the magazine there was this inteview of Isamaya Ffrench, she had her arms painted in a marble pattern (when little I was painting Easter eggs the same way). The picture really spoke to me. Learned this girls was doing this weird thing named Editorial Makeup. Became obsessed, started buying makeup, doing makeup, taking pictures of makeup, learning how to take macro pictures of makeup (because I discovered Instagram and the world of USA beauty instagrammers), done makeup on anyone I knew, started scouting girls for my trials. Became obsessed, I was thinking, breathing and dreaming makeup. Learned so much by watching Lisa Eldridge’s videos on Youtube. I got my degree in psychology and at the same time I decided I wanted to do this job, it felt like it was the only thing in the world I was born to do. Very weird feeling to feel good at something. Managed to turn this passion into a job. So makeup for me is a way to make sense in this world, to express my creativity. I don’t care about the environment, the “fame”, the gold of the fashion world. I often feel like I have yet to find my inner peace. My dream would be to develop a very specific aesthetic, my own. I honestly don’t think a lot about beauty, maybe it sounds weird…I a more focused on the creative and technical aspects of this job. The possibility to play with color, shapes, to exercise control on my hands, to understand how to create armony. I am also very into the technical part, i love to understand and discover how my working means behave, the makeup itself. The most important thing for me is to create harmony, especially in the color aspect (I collect color theory books; I am obsessive with my interests). This is something I cannot express really well with words but it’s the feeling I aim to when working, to contemplate and think “this works”. I simply do this job because it’s the only thing im good at
