    let me start fresh 16 months ago

    I work in a boring office job which is not me at all. I went to college and majored in art, i went to cosmetology school and now I’m working in insurance??? Where did i go wrong? I love make up, I love playing with color…it’s like painting on your face! I’m hoping I will be able to get a job at MAC…that is my goal for now

    no more desk work please!!!!!!! 17 months ago

    At the moment i work behind a desk programming websites.

    Theres not much room for creative scope in my job and you don’t get to meet new people.

    Working and meeting and new people plus making them look and feel good about themselves would make my days feel more rewarding then what I’m doing now. Plus you get to work for yourself.

    The trouble is where do i start.

    Just starting out... 2 years ago

    I am new to this forum, I really like the idea of writing down your goals! I have always had a passion for art and expressing yourself. I have been playing around with make-up and painting my whole life. I never actually thought about the idea of being a make-up artist until I walked into a MAC counter and one of the girls was telling me how great they were to work for. She was really enouraging and believed in me. I really have a passion for it- its just getting my foot in the door somewhere.
