And it Begins...My Journey into Make-up Artistry

I realized something today, the best blogs are like old friends.  Even when you don't talk to them everyday when you finally catch up with them its like no time has passed at all.  Now I know that I should update everyday sometimes multiple times a day but it is good to know that I have some faithful readers that always pick up right where I left off...

These last few days have been so busy but I am excited.  My vision of becoming a make-up artist (MUA) is in full effect..The other day I shared that I was blessed with some finances and it was just in time for something very special.  Well here goes the great news!!

Earlier this week I was on my part time job (Twitter-hahaha) and I noticed a very interesting tweet by a seasoned MUA, with an impressive and diverse portfolio, in my timeline.  @JenniferJamesBeauty was offering 1 on 1 personal beauty sessions for a small fee (let me say that there is no price that can be put on her energy, her professionalism and her sweet spirit..she is truly a blessing).  Needless to say, I signed up immediately and once Jennifer James called me to talk more about my consultation, I could have fainted. I mean, I do tend to believe that everything I want I can have if I extend my faith and its in the will of God, but this was too much. I shared with her the items that I already had in my flygirl inventory, she made some awesome recommendations and sent me out into the world to begin filling holes in my personal stash. Now I don't know about you but when I have a dream and it begins to come into fruition, I get excited.  I sorta kept my cool on the phone and then went to call my entire flirty, fabulous and free fam and tell them that I had met the catalyst for my future endeavors.

It is amazing to me how one conversation, one person, one phone call can help solidify something that you believe in.  I knew that within my life plan, I would someday be a MUA and I knew that in order to do that, some things would have to come to pass, I just did not know that it would be now.  Jennifer has been awesome and so has some of the other MUA's in my Twitter family.  I even got a response from @samfinebeauty to a question about his latest DVD. Later on this week, I will begin to introduce some of these wonderful people and share some of the awesome tips that I have been getting all weekend.

I cannot wait to do a M A C haul blog and to tell you all about my skype session later in this week..until then the #1 beauty tip that I can give is get your rest...beauty sleep is not a myth it is a necessity!
