An Introduction to M.I.A.

After attending an extensive makeup academy in Paris, I moved back to the States not knowing what step to take next.  Shortly thereafter, I landed a job as an artist for a prestigious high fashion cosmetic company.  I presently teach clients product application, current trends, secret tricks of the trade, and how to avoid cosmetic faux-pas.  I've decided to use this site to share my insights and opinions with other artists, enthusiasts and aspirants.  If diamonds are a girl's best friend, then makeup is our "frenemy".  I'm not claiming to be a world renowned makeup artist or a pretentious expert, instead I'm claiming to be a woman who adores everything about makeup- I live it and breathe it.  Together we'll solve any cosmetic pinch we're in.
