You have no idea how exciting it was for me to have the chance to do a makeover on TV!! The experience was pretty freakin’ fantastic!!! I’d spent the last three years doing makeup behind the scenes at the Rachael Ray show, but had never had the opportunity to work my magic on camera!!! Lucky for me, the extremely awesome folks over at USA’s show Character Fantasy gave me a shot!!!
Here are 3 things that I learned about being on the tellie!!!
1. A little clinical strength antiperspirant never hurt nobody!! Out of nowhere, I started sweating like a dieter in a donut shop (thanks for that one David). Had I not double-downed on the deodorant, it would’ve been pit stain city!!!!
2. Spanx are your friend!! A great look starts with a good foundation garment. Just like a great makeup look starts with a great foundation. Its all relative!!!
3. Invest in the dress!! Most of my stylist friends usually say invest in shoes and hanbags, because those items can make a cheap outfit look expensive. Well in TV land, your feet may not show, and more than likely, you wont have your handbag on your shoulder!! I broke the bank for these lovelies, but they never saw any air time!!!
