Mac Pro Question

[mAra]

Do you have to be a makeup artist, or makeup student to be a pro member on the website?

 

[Laura]

Hiya MAra, i dont think we'd met each other yet so HI! I'm Laura from Ireland. As far as i know, you have to be a make-up artist (freelance or otherwise) and have proof of it to be a pro member. However if you work in the hair/beauty industry i think you may be able to become a member aswell because i know Janelle (a mod on here) became one a few weeks back and i think she got it because she's a qualified hairdresser.

Hopefully the other girls can help you out with your question

Hey Laura, nice to meet you.. I'm from San Francisco, thanks for filling me in before I tried to sign up and make a big goof of myself lol, and all I wanted was access to all those pigments without having to go all the way to the pro store..lol but oh well, thats okay! hehe

 

[Laura]

LOL! Dont worry about it.. Have you ever tried eBay for pigments? I bought a set of 10 samples from one seller before for something like $25. Its really good if you wanna just try out the shadow before buying the bigger version.

 

[mAra]

I always look through ebay for full-size pigments but they're rare or overpriced, and I never get the samples because they're like little teases lol

 

[Laura]

I know some sellers are known for giving teeny weeny samples but one seller who is a member on another beauty board gives great sized samples and at fair prices. Her name is kanachan on eBay. You should check out her auctions. I get about 30 uses or more out of 1 sample.

 

[mAra]

I'll hafta check her out, thanks

 

[Laura]

Do that chick! She's super sweet too
