Today we're talking to Aleesandra Jones

 

MAQUILLAGE MAKEUP ACADEMY: How long have you been a makeup artist?

ALEESANDRA JONES: I have been a makeup artist for about 4 years.

MMA: What makes Maquillage Makeup Academy stand out from other makeup schools?

AJ: What I love about Maquillage Makeup Academy is the strong education in business that the students receive. A lot of new students worry about learning the techniques of makeup application but are overwhelmed afterwards when they don't know where or how to go to find work.

MMA: What has been the biggest accomplishment or your most memorable experience in your artistry career so far? 

AJ: My most memorable experience in my career so far was working on the Cinema Secrets Pro Team for LA Fashion Week. It's such a rush to be backstage helping get the models ready and then seeing all your work come together on the runway. 

MMA: What is your favorite makeup tool or product in your kit?

AJ: My favorite product in my kit is my Rosewater and Glycerin facial mist. It really gives everyone's skin that "JLO glow". I'm obsessed with using it!

MMA: What advice do you have for an aspiring makeup artist?

AJ: My advice is to keep practicing and never be afraid to get out of your comfort zone. Don't let fear hold you back.
