I love a bright lip with a neutral eye. Its an easy, wearable look that gives brightness to your face without looking over-the-top.

Knowing what you can do at any given time to look and feel better is pretty powerful.

We makeup artists are a unique bunch of people; we don't have the classic brain, the classic training, but we're creative, so we figure it out.

The best anti-aging product is a great, natural-looking hair color, especially when youre graying.

When I interview someone, I know in the first two minutes if I like them or not. I find that if it's easy to talk to someone and I see an openness and honesty and integrity, then I usually hire them.

The right tools are just as important as the makeup itself.

Work hard but work smart. Always. Every day. Nothing is handed to you and nothing is easy. You're not owed anything... No job or task is too small or beneath you. If you want to get ahead, volunteer to do the things no one else wants to do, and do it better. Be a sponge. Be open and learn.
