Thank you

Nope, I've still got another year to go.. I had a two year gap between school and college because of depression, so basically I'm about 2 years behind everyone my own age. I've decided that if I get any D's next year, I'll find a Chemistry fast-track and go for the cosmetic science.. doesn't mean I'll not try hard though..

Oooh, how did it go?

sounds like a good plan. who cares what everyone else your age is doing, do what's right for you

you'll find that once you're at uni, the people are all different ages so don't worry about it.

it went great thanks! i'm really looking forward to getting started

oh - cunning is featured in this month's glamour on p.280 - it's a lipstick print at the top of the page with all the different red lipsticks

yes mixing medium is awesome stuff! is it teh water based one you got? i love that and the gel one

 

[lovesongx]

Where do you girls get pigment samples from? I asked for one today in the Liverpool store but they said they don't do them. Is is PRO only or via mail order? Thanks!

i called up the mail order line and asked for a sample before and they sent it

it's usually foundations though that i ask for so that i can colour match myself rather than pigments

 

[Kirsty]

I think most people buy them. I got some from love make-up, but the selection is limited. There are sellers on here who have nearly every pigment available as a sample. Cheryl of Cheryl's shiny eyes is a great example (sorry I dont know her full username).

I got the water based one and the eyeliner m/m for now, I don't really know what I can do with the gel one so I've held off on that one..

1165Cheryl I believe? Also, Love Makeup have stopped doing them, which sucks.. I got all my samples from there

 

[Kirsty]

Oh well, they only ever really had 4 dif colours anyway. (Usually ugly ones

) Yeah, 1165Cheryl, thats her.

Yay I finally posted off my application form. Nervous now.

When they announced they were stopping selling them, they sold them all off for like £2.. after like a day all they had were the cheapy-crappy leftovers...

Oooh, is this for the dream job?

 

[Kirsty]

It is yep, not really my ultimate dream job. It's a retail MUA for Maxfactor (at Boots). It's only 6months maternity cover, but in the long run i'd love to work with cosmetics, so it's a great stepping stone. I've been looking for sim jobs for about a year, but this is the only one thats come up that's full time. These dont seem to come around often.

 

[AndSparkle]

Definitely.. something combining both Retail and Cosmetics is always going to be a good asset to a CV.. especially if you want the cosmetic-related jobs. I hope you get it

*crosses fingers*

 

[LMD84]

yes i shall keep my fingers crossed for you Kirtsy!

How much is the Mixing Medium (water based)? I've been planning on getting some for ages. Thanks.
