Hi! From Fort Myers

Hello! Just starting out with face painting. I recently graduated from cosmetology school! I'm pregnant with my 3rd baby and I've had a tough time trying to find a salon who wants to take on someone who will be taking a leave of absence in 5 months. Anyway, I'm not complaining, it's given me some time to work on honing my skills. I've always loved to be creative and my daughter wants to be a scary skeleton for Halloween. Her makeup worked out so well that since I put it up on Facebook friends have been asking me to do their makeup for Halloween. I suddenly realized I could possibly be doing this for a living. I've been asking the universe to send me a job/career that I love to do. After all, when you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life, right!? Here are the 2 looks (rough drafts) that I practiced on this week with my little girl. She's 7 and is totally loving this. Had to finally scream at her last night to get in the shower and wash off the makeup after telling her 100 times. I used Snazaroo (from Michael's) but my Mehron Paradise is in the mail. YAY! Constructive criticism and advice for starting out is greatly appreciated!

Welcome Ghen77- I am no expert but, I think your designs are very good, they look pretty pro to me. Your little girl has the prettiest eyes for that blue design.
