My MAC Role Model!!! Check out her skills....
And I had to interview her!!!

She's got the most AMAZING...she DEFINITELY has the MAC "it"!!!! I don't personally know her, but she does some BANGIN makeup. For real!!!!! I study her pictures! I asked her several MAC related makeup questions, since she works for them. Impeccible, I swear.
Check out the interview at Scandalous Beauty

Cross posted at LHCF, so I had to make sure my fellow MAC junkies saw this!!!

Her profile is set to private. I did send her a message asking for a public portfolio so we'll see.

Oh yeah. When I first saw her profile pic, I added her as a friend. That's how I got to see her skills, she has like, 100+ pics on there. On the interview, she gives her e-mail so you can add her too!

Re: My MAC Role Model!!! Check out her skills....
OMG she is amazing, Thanks for sharing. I've contacted her as well so that I can see the pictures and hopefully learn something. I love her comments, because I've never been able to figure out how to add as many colors as I see listed in the FOTDs. So I'll stick to my two or three until I master those.

Try making an underpainting. It's a technique used by oil painters since oil colors generally aren't completely opaque. The same is true of powders.

Hmmm, I'm not familiar with it, but I'll research it. Thanks.
