16. 3 things about you that no one knows?

    

      Gah! I think everyone knows everything about me by now 😛 Still I’ll try!

       a. I have a crazy tendency to put on weight and hence I have to be extra careful with what I eat.

       b. I have a crazy pigmented neck and hence matching my face with my neck is tough! Hence I need to use two foundation shades :/

       c. I have 3 kids (2 girls and 1 boy)… Ok kidding! Hmmmmm… Ok! I am a Virgo by zodiac 😀

17. Samyukta, Professional MUA – dream or possibility?

      Nah! I am a software engineer by profession and I’ll continue being so 🙂 Playing with makeup is my hobby 🙂

18. Parting shot –

      Experimentation is the key to successful make-up. No amount of product reviews and YouTube videos can tell you what looks good on you. Unless you experiment and find out what suits you, yourself, no one else can help you 🙂 So go start playing with makeup! It’s actually fun! 😀

     Lol! I almost jumped outta my chair when I saw the part about 3 kids 🙂 (hee hee). Cant tell you how much I loved the recent Mediterranean look that you did using 7 (?!?) eyeshadows….damn that was so gorgeous!!! (check the post HERE). Loved the fact that you had the guts and confidence to do your own makeup for your wedding…Now that is saying something. Thank you so much for doing this. All the very best!

     I hope you guys have made a note of all the tips and points this lady has given. So with that we conclude another fun interview in this series. I love how they are such a wealth of information. Not only do you get to learn so much more about your favorite blogger but even get a look at stuff that they recommend and are eyeing. Waiting for the Mac Temperature Rising collection eagerly….And I will be seeing you guys soon with another one of these. Take care!
