Just wondering if any other geeks offer makeup but not bridal makeup? I love doing makeup but just don’t enjoy bridal as much as I find it really stressful and enjoy doing special occasion/prom makeup a lot more. I know bridal is a big money earner but feel like it just not worth the stress!

I recently completed a course in Lash Lifting with Flirties and have found the tinting step very awkward while lashes are stuck to the shields. I trained in Beauty Therapy previously and have always just been used the way I was taught in college. My question is can I tint the lashes prior to...

Does anyone know if there is a UK supplier for the spray tan? TIA!

Between these two treatments for those who do them, which would you say is your most popular treatment? I can only afford one at the moment... which would be the best to start with? Thanks!

Happy New Year everyone! I have not spray tanned in over a year and I'm looking to get back into it. I'm thinking of Lauren's Way as not many people seem to use it in my area. Should I also invest in the One Hour Tan as well as the normal solutions? Is anybody finding them more popular...

I spray from home and currently own the HVLP machine by Xen Tan but find it pretty noisy! :eek: Can anyone recommend a small and quieter machine? Thanks!

Can any other MUA's offer tips on how to market yourself? I'm in the process of building a website, printing business cards, and I'm also using social media (Instagram). I'm thinking of printing leaflets and putting them up in my area but not too sure if they are worth my time? Thanks in...

Thanks girls I'll try them out! Let me know how you get on Salj! :wink2:

Wondering if any fellow make up geeks know of anything that helps stick glitter to the eye? I've seen something by Ben Nye but wasn't too sure if it would be any good! Any ideas?

MUFE HD and Illamasqua Skinbase are my two favorite foundations at the moment. I wear the MUFE HD most of the year but I find it the winter months it does tend to stick to any dry patches if you don't use a good moisturizer. I've also just bought a few for my kit. Well worth getting samples of it!

I second MsDiva! I trained with Lash Perfect and did not find them that great to be honest but what I have heard good things about MsDiva's training course and also seen her work. If I had the chance to do it all over again I would go there. ;)

Thanks everyone for your replies! Jazz Hand I decided to have a nose on the Nail tech's page and it's Perfect Match Gel Polish but advertising it as Shellac. I totally agree Geeg it's not too much work to break the seal of a gel polish with a normal file and soak it off!

A new client came to me for a manicure recently and she spotted my Shellac stand. She said to me 'That stuff ruined my nails!' I replied if its removed correctly it shouldn't. I quizzed her on how she had it removed by the last Nail Tech she had been to and she said with an electric file! I was...

I've seen my local supplier sell both of these lines from Fake Bake for spray tanning - what's the difference? I've only ever used the Original and Dark. They don't seem to say whether it's light or dark.What percentage is the Beyond Bronze does anybody know?

That's what I thought! I'd never heard of an L.E.D lamp described in watts before. Thanks for clearing it up for me.I'll go with Artistic lamp! :biggrin:

I'm currently using Shellac but I'm into looking to buy an L.E.D lamp to use with Artistic Gloss. I got an email this morning from my local supplier to say they were doing a special offer on an L.E.D lamp cheaper then the Artistic lamp but it was 36w? I researched the Artistic Lamp and it's 6G...

I'm starting to do Semi Permanent Eyelash Extensions full time again and was wondering what Lash Geeks found most popular Silk lashes or the Synthetic Mink lashes? I've only ever worked with Silk and as I'm starting out I just wanted to invest in one type and build from there. :biggrin:

I'm curious about the samples other people got because I only got one small sachet of cleanser & one small sachet of moisturizer. It's hard to make up your mind on a whole skincare range from two samples! :lol: Might test out the tester kit!

Thanks for your replies! I do want to stand out so I might go for something different. I'll check out Eve Taylor & Swiss Dermyl !

I love Dermalogica and trained with it in college but was wondering because as it such a big outlay at the beginning and two other salons in my area that use it is it worth investing in? Is it still as popular as it used to be?
