Makeup artist handbook

My name is Van. I’ve been in the makeup industry for over a decade, working in NYC. It all started with a random decision to take a bus to New York CIty, Sleeping on a couch somewhere in Queens, trying to “make it.” and now, i am lucky enough to still be doing what i love.and more. I’ve learned a lot throughout my journey, and made many mistakes along the way. When I was first starting out, it was hard to find education that actually applied to real-life situations. There are plenty of makeup tutorials that teach you how to create beautiful looks, But being a great makeup artist is so much more than just knowing how to do makeup. Here, I’m sharing everything I’ve learned, the good, the bad, and the honest truth. I’ll keep learning, and i’ll keep sharing. It takes time to write these articles. If you see topics that could benefit you, a one-time $30 subscription gives you unlimited access to all 22 articles, plus anything new I add in the future.
