When I mentioned my internship at Creative Make Up in yesterday's eyebrow post, I got this question that I thought I would answer in a post if more people are curious:
\n\u201cWhen did you practice? Or rather, why? What did you read? \u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It was only a week in high school actually :) During high school you have some weeks of internship, and one of those weeks I was at Creative Make Up in Uppsala and that was when I started to get to know Annika who has done my cosmetic tattoos!<\/p>\n

Two of my sisters had tattooed themselves at her salon, and then also David who worked there then did makeup, lashes and eyebrows, so I decided to ask for an internship there, and so I got it! So it was only a week I was there (I think, maybe 2?) And both David and Annika were busy with theirs so it was mostly me and two other interns who made up each other.<\/p>\n

Actually, they only accepted interns who studied makeup in some way, such as the stylist line, but I still flirted thanks to my makeup blog! They saw how interested I was (and good, although I myself look back on the make-up of that time and almost ashamed hehe) so it's a tip for you who want to become makeup artists - start a make-up blog! Even if you do not update every day or work to get a lot of readers, it is still a good CV :)<\/p>\n

The most fun with the practice was to get a response and constructive criticism of the make-up they did, but since we were several there and they almost only wore a make-up model, I do not know if I became directly better at that time. However, it gave me a lot in the end because Annika and I clicked so well, and through her I got some jobs afterwards (eg bridal makeup that she did not have time for) and also I still have the opportunity to borrow a chair at her salon if I were to need for my own clients, so that's wonderful!<\/p>\n

An old picture from when I borrowed a chair from Annika for a make-up course!<\/p>\n

Now Annika has a new salon, and it was actually last Saturday that I borrowed a chair from her last time! A girl from Gimo contacted me when her mother-in-law turned 50 and got me as a surprise gift! :) Super cool! She knew nothing more than that she would be unmade. So I had a course with her, made her nice and explained in detail what I did and why, and afterwards she got a kit with all the products I had used, everything from my webshop! Fun right? Then they went out and had a nice dinner!<\/p>\n

So there you have the story of why I know Annika and have a contact to Creative Make Up. It went a long way haha, but I know that I have many young readers who want to invest in this profession and then maybe this post is good inspiration! Imagine that I still have so many benefits thanks to the fact that I chose such a good internship the second year in high school :)<\/p>\n

Hugs are!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
