Artist Interview

In this weeks interview kensi artist, Paloma, shares with us her passion for makeup.

KM: You have such a creative and trendy style when it comes to makeup, how did that steer you towards this industry?


Paloma: The way that I steered myself into the industry is in a way sort of funny, I started doing event makeup in high school and from then on I said to myself "this is it.... I want to be a makeup artist!" Ive always found it fascinating the way that you can express beauty through the world of color and shapes on a face and in a way it defines me as a person.


KM: What style of makeup do you like doing the most?

Paloma: My favorite kind of style of makeup would have to be avante-garde or theater, it is absolutely AMAZING and WILD you can be so crea
tive with it and bring out a little part of you in details. This is your time to show your personality that screams creativity!!!


KM: Do you have a fun or interesting story to tell from your experiences working in the field?
Paloma: I do, I remember the first time I ever did a fashion show it was crazy!!! It was my first huge event and all I remember is that I had to do like four models in like 20min and then change their style of makeup in 2min. It was absolutely nerve wrecking, but I love the rush its awesome!


KM: What is your biggest makeup pet peeve?

Paloma: My biggest pet peeve would be crusty eye lashes. It is horrible, once you realize that your mascara is old, please throw it away! You want your eyelashes to look marvelous.. this is the finishing touch of the eye! It makes it pop!



KM: If you had to choose a pro-artist you admire, who would it be and why?

Paloma: I think that the pro-artist that I admire the most would be Leslie Delvin she is absolutely phenomenal!!! She is the key makeup artist for the new film "Alice In Wonderland" she has also done all of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films and is Mr. Johny Depps personal :). Delvin has a very creative side to her... it yells artistic, she combines colors and fantasy and makes it come to life and look incredible!!! She has worked so hard in every film that she has put out as well as won Oscars for them.

Photo Shoot Road Trip

Kensington Makeup Artist, Samantha M, Photographer Rhake of Precision Light + Chaos Photography, and SIM Models Lauren, Morgan and Celena all piled in to a car yesterday on a photo shoot road trip through Chandler and Gilbert. Here are some of the fabulous photos created along side of the road and even in a dead apple orchard.


Samantha said "Lauren, Morgan and Celena were so beautiful, super sweet, and naturals in front of the camera"... and that "Rhake was a lot of fun, great sense of humor, and super easy to work with ... And best of all ... he was fast at processing the photos"... he had them available that evening!


Great work every one! Loving the photos :-)
