Kit Questions......How many diffrent kits should I have?

So as a full time makeup artist I get a ton of questions concerning my kit and if I have different kits for different jobs. Honestly until now I only had one large kit and I would just take things out and add other things according to what I needed. Now that I am working so much more now and have so many different jobs to do I have started to separate my items, like right now by 2010 Bridal Season I will have an entire kit dedicated just to Bridal so tons of neutral colors, lashes, and tons of blush and lipsticks. Then my secondary kit will be for photo shoots and television, I usually use the same items for both so they can easily be combined, and the last kit that I will have is my airbrush kit, there are quite a few things that you need to achieve really great airbrush makeup.



Once I go through and get all my different items that are needed for each kit I will have several update videos and go through the foundations. I estimate that each kit will have about 2 different foundations to choose from simply because of skin types (dry to oily) and the rest of the items. But please keep in mind that when you split up your kits you may have to purchase multiple items at a time so it can get a little expensive so before you go through all this please be sure that you really need this. Once my kits are separated I will be sure to film the new kits and show you all. Remember a great makeup artist is a great artist with or without several different kits. As always B Beautiful....

Makeup Kit/Collection July 15, 2009

Ok so here is my very first collection/kit video I have seen them all over YouTube but I never actually did one of my own. So here it is, I moved a few months ago and decided to turn the back room into an office space/guest room but there is makeup and boxes everywhere so I need to change all that.
I will be doing an update video in the next upcoming months to show the transformation and more organization. Take note organize everything it makes things sooooo much easier!!!
