That's nuts.
ION, I was watching What Not To Wear, and two things: 1. I really like that they are now summarizing everything the person ended up buying, so you can see that it really is a whole wardrobe, and 2. I wonder how much it would cost just to have Carmindy look at me and tell me what's great about my face.
Well, you've had Nick do your hair, so the next logical stop is Carmindy.
Good point! I bet Carmindy doesn't have trainees like Nick does, though, huh?
My sister-in-law does runway/model/art make-up. I'm sure she'd be happy to say nice things. She'd say them in Russian though, so maybe not as helpful.
ETA: like this. [link]
She used to have some of her crazy arty stuff on line, like some of the bizarre challenges you see on ANTM where they're all done up like leopards or something. I wonder if I have any of those saved anywhere. Really neat.

Heh.
I just feel like Carmindy always has something really specific and positive to say.
I love Carmindy.
Carmindy is pretty cool, even though she does tend to use more makeup than I think she should for people who are going from NONE to some.
I would kill to have Nick cut my hair, though. Just so I could listen to him talk, really.

Yeah--I actually ended up seeing the "Blossom" episode the other day, and she put a TON of makeup on someone whose whole thing was the hippy-boho style of no makeup at all. I was like...seriously? I'm sure the woman used to wear tons of makeup in front of a camera, but...you just put multiple foundation flavors and brightener and blah blah blah on her. Do you REALLY think she's going to do that, five minutes or no? Maybe try a tinted moisturizer?

Exactly! You could tell Mayim was like, "Uh huh. Sure."
But she means well!
I tend to think of the makeup as the equivalent of the mannequins -- here's something to look at, and if you can meet us in the middle, we'll call it good.
