I agree with you, now I am not saying I am a makeup artist so I do not know if this is a bit like the pot calling the kettle black I dislike when people not at all related to beauty or fashion talk about having their card and what not, when there is no reason for them to have it besides the discount. I understand the economy is crap right now and a nice discount on anything is great, but that discount is truly meant for people that are in the industry and spent years on the craft or people like are in the industry that use makeup(me- Part of my job is being head of Creative Styling for the company I work for- this includes deciding on all hair and makeup, and the artists we use for the fashion shows, campaigns and website)

I can def see why a makeup artist would be annoyed to see some girl come into mac with some pro card they were just give.


Back to the topic- I would go for the FF sale because you need credentials from now on at the IMATS.

Well I'm a performer in a professional organization.

Most performers don't have 'credentials.' I'm wondering if they will take this into consideration for those like me. Any thoughts?

do you have proof you are a performer? playbill, reference to you as the model that type of thing? that counts
