My Life in M·A·C: M·A·C Me Over!

Have you been to a M·A·C store? :)

I still remember vividly my first ever visit to a M·A·C store.

It was in Glorietta (first M·A·C store in the Philippines), in February 2010, when I and my sister were looking for a foundation to be used for her wedding makeup.

A M·A·C girl, all clad in elegant black wardrobe, assisted us, and she talked us through M·A·C makeup base essentials (foundation and concealer). She was very confident as she demonstrated to us what products to purchase and how to use those items to achieve that perfect blooming bridal look. That was the time when I dreamed of becoming a M·A·C artist. I hoped that one day, I'd be the one educating clients about M·A·C products.

It made me think that makeup artistry COULD POSSIBLY BE MADE AS A PROFESSION, and that thought excited me.

Fast forward to June 2014, and I am now working at M·A·C (Mall of Asia door), yet everyday I am still amazed by how this brand touched every person who comes in its store, makeup artist and clients alike. How every person who knows or wants to know makeup application - from the makeup artist, to the makeup junkie, to the one who needs just the right lipstick shade for a job application - ever got to learn about the number one makeup brand.

Everyday at M·A·C, artists get to do makeovers on clients who'd like to look fabulous for an event, or teach clients who would just want to learn basic makeup application, or help out those who'd like to choose the right concealer shade for him or her. We show them how to maximize each M·A·C product that they purchase, making them feel that makeup application is not intimidating at all! :)

Below are photos of some clients that I made over (and they're not even complete!) :)

MORE!

I also get super excited when past clients and Dabawenyos drop by the store.

Also, makeovers happen artist to artist, especially during Theme Days.

These are just a few of what happens inside the M·A·C store, and every M·A·C artist has a story to tell.

This is just one of those that I can share with you, Beauties.

When I do makeovers, I always bear in my mind that the makeover should answer what my client needs. More importantly, the makeover should suit him/her.

My M·A·C Basic School Training

M·A·C, being the world's leading professional makeup authority, conducts trainings, both basic and updates, to its artists and other makeup professionals.

I got to experience makeup training last July 2014 as it was necessary to be a M·A·C artist. It was one week of knowing the history of M·A·C, how this amazing company started, from its humble beginnings to becoming what it is today. Aside from that, I, together with 12 other new artists, got to learn most importantly all about the products and how to use those products effectively. We learned how to do makeup the M·A·C way.

My favorite part? FACE CHART MAKING! :)

Below are a few of the photos that I have taken. I apologize that I was not able to take a lot as it was not allowed by our trainers (Confidentiality Agreement).

The Yson - Lotty E-Session

The day started with a sudden downpour, but that did not stop Yson and Lotty to do this shoot - their Engagement Session Shoot.

What made the day bright and cheerful, despite the gloomy weather, was the couple's warm and easygoing personalities. It was truly a fun experience working with them and the rest of the team for this PreNuptial Photo Shoot.

We toured around Davao City to find gorgeous locations; capturing the sunrise on the Seawall, the 20s-themed shoot at the Metro Card Club where the couple first met, and at the Crocodile Park for some kite flying (unfortunately the weather was too humid - no wind! lol. but that didn't ruin the fun). ;)

This e-session's team consists of Sole Infinite Photography, Allan Cuison, and yours truly.

Below are shots taken by Kiev Basaca and his team for Sole Infinite Photography.
