Task 3

TASK 3

I wasn't really sure what to expect on my first day here at West College Scotland but was soon put at ease by Bella and Mo. My first impressions of the college were really good, the building is in the middle of a revamp but I'm sure and the goings on will be well worth it once it's complete. I knew pretty much right away at the start of this term that I had opted for the right course.

The funniest thing that's happened so far is when Kat set my hair in rollers....move over Hilda Ogden!

I'm really enjoying the special effect class, watching the lectures create wounds and scars then trying to recreate them is defo up my street!

Sam Fine is one of my favourite makeup artists, he's one of the highest paid make up artists in the world today. Commanding a salary of more than $3,500 per day...wow! He's the guy behind the faces of the likes of supermodels like Naomi Campbell, Iman and Tyra Banks. Celebrities like Vanessa Williams, Queen Latifah and Patti Labelle have also availed of his services.

I've wanted to be a makeup artist for a long time now but circumstances and family life have always came first. Now I have some time for me am really glad I decided to take the plunge and enrolled.

Pixi woo tube

loving all the Pixi woo you tube videos and that Sam and Nic Chapman have a vast range of tutorials to cover pratically any look you want to create. To think that they started out just like myself and college buddies and now travel the world working for the like of Lord Snowdon, Harpers, Elle and celebs such as Paul McCartney. Their career has branched into all directions where they have developed a brush line called "Real Techniques". The fact that they juggle such a hetic working lifestyle with families is a huge inspiration. Check them out on you tube.  click here for more info
