Figuring Out My Passion
As a kid, I was always put in so many activities to keep my life busy. So, I’ve always thought that dance has always been my passion and it still is in certain levels, but then it took me a long time to discover my other true passion which is beauty. Which I’ve always loved but never thought I would take it seriously until now. I went to college for dance and theatre, when I took costume and makeup class, it taught me so much more about behind the scenes of theatre and makeup was one of them. Over the years ever since I was 14 years old, I use to do makeup every single day in the morning before going to class, it helped me on what I need to perfect on, because back then my lashes were a hot mess at times, but now they look better than ever. Now, as a 28 year old beginner makeup artist born and raised in VA, who is trying to go to cosmetology school to be certified of making women and girls feel and look beautiful, is still practicing and being creative at the same time. I am trying to do content on the side and hopefully gain clientele soon. God always knew what was best for me and this is it. I may not be an entrepreneur now, even though I’m doing makeup and makeup content in my mother’s house in my bedroom, and I’m not that popular, but I know God has a plan for me if I just keep going with what I love and never give up, I’ll get there. 🙏🏽🌹
Finding your passion can often be a transformative journey, as experienced by many individuals. While some may initially believe their passion lies in one area, like dance or art, they may later discover interests in other fields, such as beauty or fitness. This exploration is essential for personal growth and fulfillment. In the beauty industry, many beginners learn by practicing makeup techniques on themselves and others, honing their skills through consistent effort. Aspiring makeup artists often share their experiences online, creating a community where tips and techniques are exchanged, fostering motivation and creativity. For those contemplating a career in beauty, enrolling in a cosmetology program can provide formal training in makeup application, skincare, and hairstyling. Additionally, personal branding through social media can be crucial for establishing a freelance makeup artist’s presence, as many professionals showcase their work to attract potential clients. Remember, the journey of self-discovery often leads to unexpected and rewarding paths. Encouragement and persistence can help anyone navigate through their interests and transform their passion into a fulfilling career.
