This week Kensington Artist, Samantha M, dishes about every woman's must have makeup product and her favorite makeup look as an artist.
KM: Did you always know you wanted to become a makeup artist? If not then at what point in your life did you have an interest in the industry?
S: I actually had no interest in makeup growing up! I needed a job while I was in college studying architecture, so I took a retail cosmetics position and it was there that I realized my love for makeup artistry.

KM: There's not a girl/woman I know that doesn't like to have fun with makeup. What do you like best about being an artist?
S: That's exactly what I love most...being an artist! I think there is more "art" in beauty than most people realize. As cheesy as it sounds, I see each client as a new canvas per se.

KM: In your opinion, what is a must have makeup product that woman should always have and where can they buy it?
S: Aside from mascara, I have to say a good tinted moisturizer. It is the simplest way to even your skin tone, giving your complexion a fresh, healthy glow. My favorite is by Stila: the Oil Free Sheer Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 30 which can be found in Sephora stores or Sehpora.com
KM: What is one thing women should NOT do when applying their own makeup?
S: Use their fingers! It is always best to apply products with appropriate brushes, using less product than you would if you used your fingers... and also keeping the bacteria and oils from your hands off of your face.

KM: Lastly, what is your favorite makeup "look" to do?
S: I am a natural girl at heart therefore my favorite "look" is too, natural. I think women are surprised at how great they can look with very little time and very few products!
