i've used only mary kay for the past 7 years for ALL my makeup. recently i've been wanting to try something different and possibly some new colors, even though mary kay just came out with new ones this month. my MUA that used a charcoal grey on my eyes when i asked for browns and SWORE up and down that is was brown, said she'd use my makeup colors if i wanted to..... so, this past weekend i went to the parks mall in arlington to the MAC store. i figured since MAC is what most MUA use, that'd be a good place to start. i signed up for a free makeup session (if you purchase $50 or more - which i knew i would). the lady that did my makeup was AWESOME!!! and so was all the other ladies in the store. she listened to what i said and choose some really nice colors and did my makeup really awesome! i ended up buying $250 worth of stuff. i have to say, since saturday, i've used the eye primer and the fluidline (?) eyeliner (it comes in a small jar and you put it on with a brush). I've worked out, sweated, etc and my eyes look almost the same at the end of the day as it did when i first put in on. AND with no brown/black smudges under my eyes!!! why am i just discovering this now?
had to share since they were so nice and professional and because it would be a good place to learn or to get your makeup done for cheap. i think it is $50 if you don't buy something. also, if you are doing your makeup yourself - this is the way to go! try the eye primer and the fluidline eyeliner for sure!!! i can't remember the name of the girl doing mine, but all the ladies were so nice and helpful!!!
