I just looked through my posts and realised I haven't done an update for well over a year! Well all I can say is A LOT has changed.
Since my last update I have:
- Ended my education (although I am currently studying to become a qualified makeup artist!)
- Moved house
- Started working as a carer
- Started working at Superdrug (i have two jobs)
Ending my education was sad and it did make me miss socialising but I went through a heck of tough time with myself and knew that the path I was forcing myself down was just making me ill which is why I knew I had to just pack it in. I've always been the creative type and never saw myself as an artist or anything arty farty but it was later that I discovered I could finally do something with my passion for beauty - YES! I want nothing more than to be a makeup artist - I want to be able to be an artist that is open to different types of makeup such as special occasion, day and night makeup. I would eventually, much later in the future when I am more experienced to be able to teach makeup artistry. I love applying makeup on myself and others because I feel good and hopefully my model/client does too!
Moving house was pretty tough at first because I had lived in the same house for 18 years, but funnily enough I don't miss it at all. However, I do miss the location - close to shops, my friends, family and I had my boyfriends house around the corner from me. But really, my friends and family are all an hour away from my new house so it's not too bad at all. I stay a lot with my boyfriend now so it's not a problem, if anything it has made us even closer and inseparable!
I started working as a carer as I enjoy looking after those who need help. I find that this type of job is so rewarding because not only do you become helpful to that person, you also become a friend and to think you're giving them so much without realising is the best feeling. I'm the type who loves to help and make others feel good about themselves so me wanting to become a makeup artist and being a carer are the perfect duo! I also work at Superdrug as the 'cosmetics girl' although I don't have the official title of a beauty consultant, I consider myself to be one as I am the go-to-girl for all things beauty in my Superdrug store. All I can say is, I love working there, all the staff are so friendly and I love spending my shifts in the cosmetic isles!
I should probably stop typing now because I'm pretty sure that's enough for now!
