    Hey loves! This is my whole process of becoming a 25 hour Mac Artist if you’re interested. ua-cam.com/video/XXSyPcyG9qw/v-deo.html I highly recommend reading the description of that video. It explains that whole process even more. 🤍

    Loved this video, it was so insightful. I’ve been wondering, how do you manage with brushes when you are working on multiple (more than 3) clients & keep it sanitary? & would you also recommend buying more than one of the same sets or do you use different types of brushes for each individual?

    • @ShannyStephens
      @ShannyStephens  3 роки тому +4

      In between my clients I use the Cinema Secrets Makeup Brush Cleaner ( amzn.to/3EcA9Ny ) to get them clean and sanitize them and I do also have multiples of the same brushes that I like to use. I definitely recommend buying more than one of the same set of brushes or you can buy individual brushes but it’s just easier to pick up a set

    • @ShannyStephens
      @ShannyStephens  2 роки тому +2

      Awww no !! Its okay , Honestly I would take that whole thing as a learning lesson! In the future make sure you give yourself enough time to do your best work don’t allow your clients to rush you. If you feel like you need to be quicker when it comes to doing makeup make sure you start timing yourself when you’re doing make up and pay attention to where you’re spending too much time on and keep a mental note. It will help you not spend too much time on unnecessary stuff like blending your eyeshadow for 20 minutes

    Hey Shanny🙋🏾‍♀️,
    May I ask you a Mac related question? My overall MSF powder is the color dark during winter/spring. I’m interested in buying dark tan for summer ; however is dark tan the same undertone as dark just a tad darker?. Or may you recommend a darker MSF with the same undertone as dark💕🙏🏾
    Thanx love, happy minifriday🥳

    • @ShannyStephens
      @ShannyStephens  3 роки тому

      I love it depends on how your color changes in the summer. If you get darker but you stay the same tone I would get dark tan but if you feel like when you get darker you get more red I would recommend getting dark deep. But go in the store just to make sure and Thank you for watching ☺️🤍 Happy Friday!
