HEY EVERYONE! Since this video I have moved to Japan. I am finally getting back into the seing of making good quality content. If you have a question that hasn't been answered or a product you want to see reviewed, leave it in the comments of my latest video! HOW TO BREAK INTO THE INDUSTRY IN 2021 ua-cam.com/video/hL3DTK4Snhg/v-deo.html
Just here to drop an update! Thanks for the support everyone! I moved and had to get situated but I've found a salon that I will now be shooting videos out of with models and tips on building your kit. In the future I will be taking clients there as well! So excited to bring you all quality content! I'll be back at it very soon!
I know personally that UA-cam takes a lot of work but pleassseeeee make more videos! I’m not sure how you feel but if you feel like nobody’s watching .. we are and I’d love more information. Most MUA’s would never share this stuff! Keep going😘😘
I’m at currently studying to become a MUA, specifically Fashion & editorial. Thanks so much for this! I cannot afford as a student 30 individual foundations & not being kit friendly
I love how real you are! ❤️ It's so refreshing to see someone who knows what they're talking about (even taking notes) to keep it simple and to the point! Your confidence shines because of how sure you are, in what you're saying. This is my first time coming across your videos, so I'm not sure if you have covered any of the things I'm about to mention (or if you even still do videos -I'll obviously check after I write this!) but there's a few videos I'd love to see from you!! 1. Some tips/tricks how to work on deeper skin tones. Im very fair with cool undertones, so my knowledge is fairly limited to light foundations with green color correcting lol. I'd love to have you lay out some basics when working with WOC! ❤️ 2. How you pack your kit, materials /packaging you use, items that may be specific to your kit that you can't live without! 3. Brushes! I'm a brush hoarder and always overpack these... 4. Staple skin prep items you can't live without! 5. Time saving tips/how you set up your station for clients. 6. Favorite eyeshadow palettes! 7. Working on mature skin. Sorry for being long winded, just pumped to finally find someone without all the bulllllllllshhhh. ❤️
I’ve been using Ben Nye palette for the last 4 years never failed me on matching anyone mixing and making colors you don’t have is easy. Texture is thin and workable but it’s Little to Medium coverage unless mixed with a liquid for full coverage. I notice on sets and video shoots it’s not heavy enough and doesn’t do well under lights use a matte primer I had someone melt on me before. these are good for everything but shoots or videos
omg I'm so happy I've came across your video and channel, been doing a lot of research about foundations and what's the best way to get started as I feel that I have a lot of options when it comes to eye shadows, blush, powder bronzers etc but obviously only have my own shade when it comes to foundation. I've been watching a tone of videos and its honestly annoying to hear omg can't believe how small it is blablabla like I've ended up getting the nyx pro face palette which is sooo affordable for what it is and once I have more practice and experience I will upgrade. Thank you so much for sharing so much knowledge x
Also the Makeup Forever Artist Studio in New York (near union square) offers a pro discount of 40%. Im not sure if they have other locations but they probably do.
Of course! Yeah they have opened their pro program back up since I made this video so I believe if you apply online you can get the discount at any pro store or their site.
You need a primer at that point. Foundation isn’t wall spackle. You’re gonna see texture. However, a thick primer over texture and large pores will give the foundation something to lay on top of. It’s like Spanx for your face
Chelsey Lee hi. MAC has a great full coverage foundation palette (there’s only 1) and it’s around $70+ ($42+ with pro discount). It’s AMAZING!!! You’ll need some in between shades though. It contains NW and NC shades. Good luck babe. 😇
I was hoping for more info about mixing foundation. How many shades you should pack and mix with those. HD makeup and the importance of that with photos and videos. It’s nice to hear your thoughts of foundation you used and what you haven’t. The buying tips are great. I guess I was hoping for how to mix foundations. Also why are you recommending a drug store priced foundation that you haven’t been tried yourself? Kind of hard to take you seriously if you’re biased
If you’re in Canada and you shop at shoppers drug mart or any PC grocery stores a lot, save the weekly points coupons and you can quickly generate points which act as cash to spend at PC stores e.g. 100000 points = $100 You can save and spend up to 500000 points at a time which is a great way to be able to buy high end brands from the beauty boutique where we don’t get discounts. They carry Estée Lauder, Too Faced, Smashbox, Jouer, Etc
I'm not even going to lie. I dropped the ball and had so much planned. But that is honestly a goal of mine so I'll be back very soon! I'm glad it was helpful!!
I’m just letting you know what I see. You got this!!!! One of my goals this year is to start my makeup artist journey. I love your perspective and respect your knowledge.
@@sharronthomas7338 well thanks!! I've done so much research and wasted so much money. My goal was to help those like you. You're going to kill the game, best of luck!
So glad I’ve found your channel ❤️ I’m a new MUA and just purchased the RCMA palette (11) but, definitely interested in trying graftobian brand too. Have you tried the RCMA? How is it compared to graftobian? Thoughts please :)
There's not a huge difference in finish. I don't use RCMA but Deshawn Hatcher stated that she switched from RCMA to Graftobian years ago because it performed better.
It is waxed based but it's not as thick as others. I prefer to use a buffing brush or my fingers but I have also alcone sponges. I'm going to be uploading an application video soon!
@@beautybymboumo free for union and agency represented artist. Their application states it's a paid for program unless you mert those 2 criterion. It's also been $35 since I can remember.
Also this Medatranian with olive undertones has a hard time finding anything to match her because apparently in makeup land, it’s impossible to be both fair and have olive undertones😑 That’s 100% bs and makeup land needs to stop with that. That brand you know nothing about but won’t stop praising has olive tones but fail to have any for fair skinned folks. Like it’ll be cool to have a line that’s just olive undertones because it is hard to find something to match you if you’re olive
I highly recommend trying the L.A. Girl foundation mixers, I agree that brands need to create fair olive foundations for sure but until that happens, the blue and yellow mixers mixed together make the perfect olive undertone. The mixers are super sheer so you can use them with the lightest shades with no issues. And if you do try it and like it, you could add in enough of each to liquid foundation that you don’t have to mix it every time, just possibly have to shake it every so often if anything.

Thank you! As soon as I unpack and find my camera I'll be dropping another video. Glad I could help!

No problem! I'm glad this helped. Individual foundations are so expensive and often people who have a whole collection were sent them in PR

Omg! Thank you so much! I actually had braces and let my gap come back lol. Thanks for your support!!
Still valid to this day! I have an audition at a club Monday and looking for something affordable to cover a wide range of skin types. Thank you!
Good luck! Glad you found it useful!
omg I'm so happy I've came across your video and channel, been doing a lot of research about foundations and what's the best way to get started as I feel that I have a lot of options when it comes to eye shadows, blush, powder bronzers etc but obviously only have my own shade when it comes to foundation.

Can you make a video about eyeshadows, lips, contour, bronzer, highlighter and blush palettes for beginners kits?
I have been looking for a video like this!
So was I and a lot of other artists! Glad it helped. More is coming real soon
Finally, someone did this video. This was great!
Thank you! Glad I could help! 😊
Amazing video thanks for the help. I been looking for good face palettes
Just ordered my black opal sticks! 😃😃
This was soooo helpful! Thank you girl! Waiting on more videos
Thank you for all this info! Definitely appreciate it!
Glad I could help. Definitely more to come!
Thank you for this video, so knowledgeable.
This has been very helpful :)
Thank you soooo much ❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the video !
Thanks for the depot tip!!
Thank you for the honesty!

Of course! Yeah they have opened their pro program back up since I made this video so I believe if you apply online you can get the discount at any pro store or their site.
Makeup Forever does offer a pro discount on their site. It’s called Backstage Card Program for Pros....Great video 😊
Thanks! I know, they brought it back after this video was make thank goodness!
Antoinette Latrice I know! I was so happy to finally get it 😊
I have Ben nye I need to figure out how to get it to look smooth on textured skin. Which foundations are best for a little texture, large pores?
You need a primer at that point. Foundation isn’t wall spackle. You’re gonna see texture. However, a thick primer over texture and large pores will give the foundation something to lay on top of. It’s like Spanx for your face
Can you suggest which shades to start off with from black opal and how many is a good start?
I'd suggest the whole collection. If you buy all the shades it's only $160. Sign up for the emails and follow on Instagram they do 20/30% off sales
Thank u sis!
Have you tried mac foundation palette? I don’t know which one to get

Not a ton of useful information. It’s just a review video
Hey Tonie. Which Makeup Forever Liquid Foundation shades do you have in your kit? Love the video x.
If you’re in Canada and you shop at shoppers drug mart or any PC grocery stores a lot, save the weekly points coupons and you can quickly generate points which act as cash to spend at PC stores e.g. 100000 points = $100

Make more videos.... This is sooo helpful 😀😀

Two words.... YOU’RE DOPE!!!!
@@sharronthomas7338 you just made my day and brought tears to my eyes!

I'm going to do a video on this because it's easier to show. I've found that it's easier to see the difference rather than describing them in writing
@@TonieJ yaaas thank you so much 😊 looking forward to watching it 😍
Girl, thank you. Ive been so confused. 😭
My pleasure! There’s more coming!
Is there a difference in finish and wear between the RCMA palettes and the Graftobian palettes?
There's not a huge difference in finish. I don't use RCMA but Deshawn Hatcher stated that she switched from RCMA to Graftobian years ago because it performed better.
RCMA is a wax-based product which is harder for me to work with. I like to use the Graftobian palettes but that's just my preference.
Have you used the ben nye foundation palette one yet ? If so how do you like it .
Whats should get makeup forever or the graftobian6
Hey is the graftobian one wax based? How would you apply it? A beauty blender or makeup brush?
It is waxed based but it's not as thick as others. I prefer to use a buffing brush or my fingers but I have also alcone sponges. I'm going to be uploading an application video soon!
Can you teach us how to mix?
Hey love, hope all is well! Do you still like this product?
Hey! I still have and love the graftobian and rcma palettes!
They do come in fair shades I have all colors
Are you talking about the black opal? Their shades don't go as fair as the traditional alabaster.
I got like 4 fair shades liquids and cream sticks
Mac and Makeup forever offer 40% off discount for pro make up artists
I recently got approved for MUFE. They weren't taking new apps for a while. I'm still too frugal to pay for the mac discount lol
Tonie J the Mac is free

You need adjusters. Invest in something like a makeup forever , rcma, kett, or temptu based on the medium you use.
