I was so excited to have a make up trial today! I LOVE make up, had saw this womans portfolio on line and made an appt for a trial. She was a very sweet person so I feel really bad complaining, but the trial was terrible. I showed her a bunch of pictures, talked about what I like and what I don't like, showed her my everyday makeup and what I wanted to play up with it without looking like a drag queen. I got the ok, ok, no problem...now here's what colors I've already picked out for you...huh? Ok, so everything was preselected and the colors fell somewhat into what I wanted, but not entirely, however she assured me it would look great on me. First off, my eyebrows looked awful..I looked like Groucho Marx and when I asked her to fix them, she removed them, and then put them back the same exact way? UGH! The eyeshadow looked ok, the eyeliner was unbelievably thick, even after me saying I wanted it thin. To make matters worse, after she put on my lashes, she added even more liner making it look like thick black bars. She then applied a ton of foundation to my face consisting of about 4 - 5 layers. It was about 4 shades darker then my skin tone and was not blended at all into my neck. She then put globs of gloss on my lips to the point where it was running off my lower lip. It was awful. When she was done I talked to her about the eybrows again, the liner and the concealer. I was told that she could change it up for my wedding. ????? Was I just supposed to trust that she would do it correctly on the big day? Sorry..but I dont think so. By the time I walked out to my car, the lashes were already pulling off of my lids and the liner she put on my waterline..which I hated, was running into my eyes.
I looked like a circus clown. To make matters worse, the trial was on the expensive side and it really upset me that I paid someone to do that to my face. I went straight home and washed my face.
Sorry for the rant, but I was just so dissapointed!
