The Science Behind The Makeup




My (quick) synopsis on women and makeup : 

Its clear that not all women wear makeup. Some women don't know much about it or simply have not been exposed to it. Others feel perfectly comfortable walking out with their natural beauty. However for those of us that do I thought I'd break down to those who don't share the makeup culture, why women love makeup so much. 

It is actually a known fact that the brain has already released a certain amount of endorphin and dopamine the minute a woman even thinks about applying her makeup. This means that the individual has already anticipated a rush of optimism as they prepare to apply makeup. (According to brain function research by Japanese scientists; "The telegraph") The research focused on female responses but team believes men experience the same satisfaction while preparing for a haircut,shaving or putting on cologne.

As a part time Makeup Artist and full time woman i can relate. Simply the idea of getting ready excites. Changes occur in a human being and i don't just mean a woman's face. Personality alters along with confidence. Appearance definitely matters. Countless studies will show that being well groomed is a direct factor linked to success. Most people want to see someone who cares enough about themselves to maintain a positive image. But that's not all .. 

For some women its a chance to create relationships and helps them become more social. The same reasoning goes for those who think liquor is a necessity when going out. Makeup is a healthy way to get your blood pumping

The Can Do Attitude ...

Even on the days where we feel beyond inadequate there's always something that keeps us going, as cliche as that may sound for me that thing is makeup. It transforms me into the woman that I've always wanted to be. The woman with the can do attitude and the power to conquer the world. This power is one that i hope to pass on to other beautiful women. So ladies no matter what the day brings for you today make sure you do it with a smile and some mascara ;)

Working On A Movie


                       Not sure if im even allowed to post these, but i kind of cant help it. I was so thrilled to be on a movie set . The makeup was very light and natural for most scenes so it may seem as if there isnt any there but oh there is :)
