My 205 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: question is like, with a bit of googling and researching, 206 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: you started off hair. Is that correct? 207 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 3: Yes? 208 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: And then was it true you were like had this 209 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,360 Speaker 1: passion for painting and drawing, and then that kind of 210 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: morphed into make Yeah. 211 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 2: I started cutting my friend's hair. And a lot of 212 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 2: them were models and you know whoever's but you know 213 00:10:43,880 --> 00:10:46,120 Speaker 2: they were obviously I was cutting. I was obviously doing 214 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 2: something cool with their hair. I had no training. 215 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 3: I love that. 216 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 2: We kind of just wanted a certain look and that 217 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 2: was not really happening with the salon, and I just 218 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 2: started cutting. There were and there was a headdresser that 219 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,439 Speaker 2: was quite famous around at the time, who's all that? 220 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 2: And she was at me, at me, at me to 221 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: start working with her. I just couldn't think of anything 222 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 2: worse than being a hairdresser, though I mean no offense 223 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: the hairdressers, but you know, working in a sale line 224 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 2: and doing that today to day grind, it was not 225 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: what I was looking for, even though I loved cutting, 226 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 2: and I loved shape and I loved all that sort 227 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,120 Speaker 2: of thing. And then when she started talking to me 228 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 2: and telling me about what she did, which was kind 229 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: of similar to what I do now, except she had 230 00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:24,559 Speaker 2: a cellng So she was out in the studio two 231 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: or three days a week working with brands, and then 232 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 2: back in the in the in the salon a couple 233 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 2: of days a week. She came to me with a 234 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: really great job offer and explained to her kind of 235 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: how it was, and yeah, then I sort of fell 236 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 2: into it. So then when we were beyond studios, obviously 237 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: I'd be seeing the makeup artists work. I can draw 238 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,400 Speaker 2: and I can paint. I had to have a flair 239 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,440 Speaker 2: for photography. I did a photographic course at ACP, which 240 00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: was up in Paddington at the time, and I was, 241 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: you know, I had a really photographic eye, so I 242 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: kind of saw things in photographs watching the makeup artists work, 243 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 2: I just was kind of like, Wow, that's really cool. 244 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 2: I feel like I could really do that, and so 245 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 2: I just started to experiment and to play. I met 246 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: a makeup artist who lives in la Her name is 247 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 2: Natasha Severino. 248 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 3: She's one of my best friends. 249 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:16,840 Speaker 2: She's my mentor, and she started teaching me about product 250 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,719 Speaker 2: and what it was, because I need nothing about MAC 251 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 2: where it went, basically how to work it, and so 252 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 2: she taught me those kind of basics. But ultimately I'm 253 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 2: self taught. I love that I learned what all those 254 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 2: those products where I learned where they went, and I 255 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 2: just started applying them. 256 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: Where did you get the hair? You know? How? The 257 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: one thing I noticed when you did my makeup, you 258 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: use your fingers and hands a lot, and you like 259 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: soften the product into their face. Is that? Is that 260 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:46,200 Speaker 1: self taught? Or is that? 261 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,800 Speaker 2: I think we all do it a little bit. Yeah, 262 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: I like to do In the beginning, I did it 263 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 2: a lot. I hold a paint brush like I hold 264 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 2: a makeup brush like you with a paintbrush. I love 265 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:01,360 Speaker 2: it right around, so I hold it quite long, and 266 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 2: you know, I kind of I do really paint. And 267 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: I guess that's just because I'd learnt to hold a 268 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 2: bush like that. Yeah, So I started doing makeup like that, 269 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:10,760 Speaker 2: and I guess a lot of there was not a 270 00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: lot of that happening. And I love working with watercolors, 271 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 2: so I love to kind of blend things around, and 272 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:21,679 Speaker 2: obviously that blending comes with the fingers. You know, when 273 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 2: you were painting, you'd add water and you'd get that 274 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 2: kind of watercolor blend. But I would do it with 275 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: my fingers by either smearing it or patting it in 276 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: or So that's kind of how that started. And it 277 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: was a big part of the beginning of my career 278 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 2: because I guess a lot of people here were, you know, 279 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,680 Speaker 2: it was a little bit more kind of blocky and 280 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 2: a little bit more makeup artisty, where I was kind 281 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 2: of blending it into faces and I was making it. 282 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: I was making the makeup fit the face rather than 283 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:52,319 Speaker 2: trying to change the face too much with the makeup, 284 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 2: like with. 285 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 3: Hard minds and stuff. 286 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 2: So that's where my love of the fingers kind of 287 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 2: came in and warming it up and making the skin 288 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,679 Speaker 2: and the makeup one, which was what I wanted to do. 289 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 2: I wanted to make okay, because this is probably the 290 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 2: best way to explain. I wanted to make girls look 291 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 2: beautiful rather than the makeup look great. 292 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 3: So for me, if. 293 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 2: You looked at someone that I did and you were like, wow, 294 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 2: she looked beautiful or she looks cool, that is what 295 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 2: I want rather than you go, oh, wow, the makeup 296 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 2: looks good. 297 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, because to me that doesn't. 298 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 2: It means the makeup's not fitting her face. I wanted 299 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 2: to fit. 300 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,200 Speaker 1: So how did you go from So you're seeing makeup 301 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: artists work and you're seeing kind of like, yeah, this 302 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: is something I think I could do I've got this 303 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 1: passion for painting and drawing. How do you then make 304 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,120 Speaker 1: the leap from that from like working with hair and 305 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 1: then going stuff and I'm going to get so you 306 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: started like practicing on mates and stuff. 307 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, started testing.

But also then I started 310 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 2: working with makeup people, so I was getting the technical 311 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 2: training by watching very established and very very talented artists. 312 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 2: I managed to assist three of the biggest makeup artists 313 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 2: in this country straight off from r which is very 314 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 2: rare so quickly. I mean sometimes it takes assistance hair 315 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 2: and makeup assistance years to get in with those people, 316 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 2: but I was lucky. 317 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 3: I managed to get in. 318 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 2: And I guess, you know, now that I look back, 319 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 2: maybe they saw that I had something raw, that there 320 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 2: was something there that they also wanted to kind of 321 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 2: be a part of.

There is 331 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 2: no bridge.

And I say that all the time. 348 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: It is I'm not a technical person, so if you 349 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:52,760 Speaker 2: hand me something technical in hair and makeup, I am 350 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 2: probably the not the best pick for that because I 351 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: don't have that step one, step two steps his thory format. 352 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 2: I'm kind of like, yeah, I can look at what 353 00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:05,399 Speaker 2: you're showing me what to do, but I wouldn't be 354 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:09,320 Speaker 2: able to kind of I wouldn't have that really technical 355 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 2: training or technical mind to kind of recreate that or 356 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: do that.

A lot 359 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: of people are talking now about this idea of business. 360 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: Isn't like you go to UNI, you finish a degree, 361 00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: you then get into a business. It's much more intuitive now, 362 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: and it almost seems like you from the get go 363 00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: kind of like trusted and followed your intuition. My question is, 364 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 1: and I don't have even's asked this before, trust Well, 365 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, I think, but my question is, You've 366 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,000 Speaker 1: always seemed to me every time, whether I've seen you 367 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: at an event or I've seen like you personally, you've 368 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: got this. When we speak about essence, your essence is 369 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: like I know who I am. I really like I 370 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:55,880 Speaker 1: like who I am, not not in an ego way, 371 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: just like this is me, I'm confident, and I think 372 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: that you need to be able to take that essence 373 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 1: with you when you're you know, working with a new 374 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: client or you know what I mean, Like it's this 375 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: and people listening, like I think, like self confidence is 376 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,359 Speaker 1: a bit of a thing, but it's just like this 377 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 1: knowingness within you of like. 378 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 2: Now none there's one hundred percent of self confidence though 379 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:19,680 Speaker 2: that's yeah, that's bullshit. And as maybe as together as 380 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 2: I look, or as confident as I look, I mean, 381 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 2: I am confident. I have as I've gotten older, I've 382 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,120 Speaker 2: become more confident, but I have always have been quite confident, 383 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 2: I would say, But what's happening on the outside is 384 00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: not what is always happening on the inside. And I 385 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 2: think the more confident a person comes along as or 386 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 2: comes up as being, and the more you know together 387 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 2: or you know, outspoken or all those things on the inside, 388 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: generally they're the complete opposite. And they're using that as 389 00:18:54,480 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 2: a facade, yeah, totally to protect themselves. And I think 390 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 2: I am very much like that. Like you said to me, 391 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 2: you were a little nervous when I arrived, because you know, 392 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: you were not quite short to do. But as soon 393 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 2: as I started talking to you, there was a warmth 394 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: and there was a connection with you. And I think 395 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 2: that's kind of the the juxtapose or whatever of me. 396 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 2: I like, I'm quite soft, and I am quite sensitive, 397 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 2: and I am quite gentle, and I look probably the 398 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 2: opposite to all of. 399 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 1: That random question. What's your star sign? 400 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:25,920 Speaker 3: I'm a Capricorn? 401 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:26,959 Speaker 1: Are you a Capricorn? 402 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:27,959 Speaker 3: I'm a Capricorn. 403 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 1: I means it's your birthday?

It's not visually about her. 804 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,720 Speaker 2: It's about the way that she thinks, and it's about 805 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 2: her voice. And I just adore her and I always 806 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: have I listen to the radio station.

It was in 811 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 2: a really great time frame that I could work into, 812 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: and so I said yes, because I love her every 813 00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 2: single day, Jackie, you let me do a completely and 814 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 2: utterly different These were books that she's never done before. 815 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 2: I mean, for a woman that doesn't do this every day, 816 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 2: that takes balls and her fashion. So it was just 817 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:17,920 Speaker 2: not only her hair and makeup, it was her outfit 818 00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 2: as well. It was a completely utter look and every 819 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 2: day we were coming up with a completely different looking style. 820 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,040 Speaker 2: And to do that is so ballsy because most women 821 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: who even do that every day just want to stay 822 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:32,320 Speaker 2: within the realm of their natural style because they don't 823 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 2: want to be thrown too much into criticism because can 824 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,000 Speaker 2: go really wrong. So for me to work with someone 825 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,880 Speaker 2: like Jackie, that was just like, okay, high ponytail today, 826 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:42,880 Speaker 2: You're going to run gaffa tape around the top of 827 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 2: the ponytail, and we're going to put you in a 828 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,880 Speaker 2: pink you know dress bla blah blah off the shoulder, 829 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 2: and I'm going to do a neon pink libya, and 830 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to draw your eyebrows on at the end. 831 00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:53,439 Speaker 2: Because depending on how tight I get your hair up 832 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,960 Speaker 2: and high will gauge on how how we do your 833 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,520 Speaker 2: eyebrows because we don't need look too angry like most 834 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 2: people would freak out. It was just like take me 835 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 2: and she'd look at herself in the mirror and she 836 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:04,280 Speaker 2: was so wow. 837 00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: Like it was perfect for that show as well though, 838 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,879 Speaker 1: because there was that kind of like freedom to take 839 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: it anyway you wanted to.

Then that 878 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 2: kind of just took off and then started working with 879 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 2: the brands in developing products and trialing and testing them, 880 00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:17,480 Speaker 2: and that side of things, packaging, is it functional, how 881 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,439 Speaker 2: does the product work? Does it last? I mean, these 882 00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 2: were all things that kind of I mean, it sounds 883 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 2: like it happened super fast, but it didn't, and there 884 00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,880 Speaker 2: was no real road for me. I just knew that 885 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 2: I wanted to do more than go and stand on 886 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,879 Speaker 2: a studio floor at the side of the paper roll, 887 00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 2: watching the model work and looking at my makeup and 888 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 2: making sure it was right. I wanted to do more. 889 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 2: I felt like I could do more. I love products, 890 00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 2: I love the education behind them. I love the thought 891 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,800 Speaker 2: of the marketing and how they fit into what's happening 892 00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:50,000 Speaker 2: in fashion and what's happening, you know, on the pages 893 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 2: of a magazine. 894 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 3: There was more to. 895 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,600 Speaker 2: It for me than that, but there was no No 896 00:41:55,600 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 2: one had really done that here, so there was no 897 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,799 Speaker 2: one really for me to talk. I just knew that 898 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,080 Speaker 2: I wanted to do it, and it was trial and error. 899 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 2: I started the blog, first, started working with brands, doing 900 00:42:06,360 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 2: an education writing about the products. Then I started building 901 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:12,960 Speaker 2: and it was a bit of a momentum. I was 902 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 2: also working with a lot of different celebrities and fine 903 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,120 Speaker 2: tuning their style. I mean I did it with Lara. 904 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 2: She went from a wag to being this fashion icon, 905 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 2: you know. So I started working with a lot of 906 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:25,920 Speaker 2: other celebrities doing that. Then I started working with department 907 00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:29,239 Speaker 2: stores and Meca and David Jones, and it just kind 908 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 2: of ricocheted. But ultimately, there's not been really any path 909 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 2: for me, no kind of steps. This is how it's done. 910 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 2: There was not really anyone to tell me how to 911 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 2: do it. I just did it and I had to 912 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 2: go and not everything worked out. Maybe I didn't look 913 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 2: the best doing all of the things. Maybe a lot 914 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 2: of people didn't like what I was doing or didn't 915 00:42:54,200 --> 00:42:57,400 Speaker 2: like the result, But ultimately I was just trying so 916 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,120 Speaker 2: that the second time it would come around. 917 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 3: If I got that opportunity second. 918 00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 2: Time, you know, if it worked then, and most of 919 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:07,640 Speaker 2: it did, that's when it kind of like took that 920 00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 2: next step, do you know what I'm saying. So it 921 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 2: was very difficult. It was it was a lot of 922 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 2: noises in my head, like am I doing the right thing? 923 00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:16,920 Speaker 3: Should I be doing this? 924 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 2: Should I Is this going to ruin my opportunity of 925 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,520 Speaker 2: just being a makeup artist and working until I'm sixty 926 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: like this could throw everything to the wind. And it 927 00:43:25,640 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 2: was a big digital movement as well. It was the 928 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,160 Speaker 2: fashion industry was really fighting. They were not liking especially creatives, 929 00:43:31,160 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 2: because they were like, oh, suddenly now everyone's got an Instagram, 930 00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 2: there a makeup artis are they're a photographer of this? 931 00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:37,920 Speaker 2: But I knew that it was going to be the future, 932 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 2: and I knew that I had to kind of grasp 933 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 2: that somehow get onto it as it was starting, but 934 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 2: still maintain myself fundamentally as just a makeup artist. So 935 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,319 Speaker 2: it was a really hard line to It was a 936 00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:53,440 Speaker 2: really hard balance for me to, you know, do new 937 00:43:53,480 --> 00:43:56,120 Speaker 2: things over here and be this person, but still manage 938 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,279 Speaker 2: that world that I'd come from, something that. 939 00:43:58,200 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 3: Didn't resent me. 940 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: How do you feel like? So I saw you recently 941 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,000 Speaker 1: in Viron and you did an event like a makeup 942 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:06,680 Speaker 1: tutorial with. 943 00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 3: Al and Spell. 944 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, so masterclass, a masterclass, but people were getting selfies 945 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:16,240 Speaker 1: with you after and someone had the exact same tattoo 946 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,879 Speaker 1: that you have and got it. So like that's kind 947 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 1: of that You're moving into that celebrity kind of space 948 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,000 Speaker 1: of where people really look up to you and look 949 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 1: to you as kind of like a beacon of light 950 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:28,560 Speaker 1: and guidance and things like that. How does it feel 951 00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: when you're kind of like on that other side where 952 00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 1: you're living more that you are the brand, you are 953 00:44:33,280 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 1: the celebrity. 954 00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 2: I mean, girls that I've worked with over the years 955 00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:41,879 Speaker 2: have kind of given me insight into that, So that 956 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:44,160 Speaker 2: has helped a lot. I mean, working with Laura and 957 00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:47,160 Speaker 2: seeing her go from just being that, you know, you know, 958 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,480 Speaker 2: everyday girl into that super celebrity and watching her handling it, 959 00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:54,479 Speaker 2: you know, Jodie and Jess and the ongoing and Cole 960 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,680 Speaker 2: and the Cats and all these people ongoing, watching them 961 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 2: how they kind of like react to that and how 962 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:03,880 Speaker 2: they deal with that has helped me a lot. But 963 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 2: it feels weird because I mean, ultimately I'm a makeup artist. 964 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: I'm meant to be behind the scenes. That is kind 965 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 2: of the era that I also come from as well. 966 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 2: So it's been a little strange. But I mean with 967 00:45:15,840 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 2: social media and this like celebrity craze thing that everybody 968 00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 2: loves a celebrity, it has really put makeup artists and 969 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 2: hairstylists as a whole and brought us out into the forefront. 970 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:29,880 Speaker 2: I mean, there are makeup artists out there that have 971 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 2: massive brands like Charlotte Tilbury and Pat McGrath, and they're 972 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 2: like super duper celebrities. They're like more famous than the 973 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 2: photographers and the models that they're working with, you know. 974 00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 2: So it's quite extraordinary to come from an era where 975 00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:45,840 Speaker 2: you weren't you weren't seen, you were behind them, behind 976 00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 2: the curtains, to becoming like super famous. I mean not 977 00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:52,560 Speaker 2: that I'm supervi, I mean. 978 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:56,560 Speaker 3: There were people like that, like, oh my gosh. 979 00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:04,880 Speaker 2: So yeah, it's weird, but it's kind of flattering.

Jimmer, 1166 00:55:06,600 --> 00:55:07,360 Speaker 1: what you said. 1167 00:55:07,160 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 2: About I love love and I love being in love, 1168 00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 2: and everybody wants to be loved. 1169 00:55:13,719 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 3: But I love my life. 1170 00:55:15,200 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 2: I have a great life, probably the best best position 1171 00:55:21,440 --> 00:55:24,399 Speaker 2: in my life.
