Keep your makeup germ-free with Nippon Esthetics Solutions Pro....

I've been doing makeup for other people for almost 4 years now.  If there's one thing you need to make sure of whenever you'd be doing makeup on other people aside from having the skills and confidence, you have to be sure that your stuff ARE ALL CLEAN. Besides, who would want germs on their faces that would eventually lead to skin problems?  I surely don't.  

In makeup school, I've learned that it's a MUST to use brushes.  Of course, there are times that it would be better to use your fingers but make sure that they are clean.  That's why it's mandatory to always bring a hand sanitizer or alcohol with you during makeup gigs.  Aside from brushes, you can also use sponges.  But not the ones that you can wash after each use.  Go for disposable sponges. That way, you can be sure that bacteria won't be transferred from one client to another. The same goes for lipgloss wands and even mascaras.  I must admit, I used to be not that particular with these before.  I use brushes, and disposable sponges...but for mascaras and lipglosses, I just wipe the wands with wet wipes before using it on my next client.  

One reason why some would tend not to take HYGIENE more seriously?  Well, the cost. These disposable sponges, wands and other tools cost some amount.  And given the competition among makeup artists these days when most tend to lower their fees, setting aside an amount to stuff like these that most would consider "kaartehan lang" will lower their earnings even more.  As some would say "Mura na nga ako, mababawasan pa kita." 

Well, I understand their predicament. I myself experienced "super-tawad-to-the-max" clients before...until now, actually.  But though I would sometimes give in, it doesn't mean I would sacrifice quality and hygiene just to cut costs.  Kung ganon din lang, I'd rather not do it.  In this industry, I've learned two things:

1.  It's a lot better when people get your service despite your (higher-than-the-others) rates, that would mean you are good...than people getting you just because you are cheap.  Hah, I've learned that from one of my good friends!  
2. If you won't be giving 100% of your effort (cleanliness and quality of tools included), don't do it.  Yes, there are clients who are not maselan and will not care if the makeup doesn't suit them or if your stuff aren't clean.  But what if you've encountered one?  I had clients who talked about some of the MUAs they've worked with in the past..some had something good to say, and some doesn't.  So I always make it a point that my clients are satisfied with my work, and that they won't feel like tinipid after getting my services.

Good thing there's Nippon Esthetic Solutions Pro - a professional line of Beauty and Hygiene Disposable Products. Aside from making you look a lot professional in what you do by keeping your stuff germ-free, they are also affordable.
