Fakeup artist 

Someone (usually very gay) who actually could be described as a legitimate makeup artist and doesn’t choose to Identify as one. In most cases they are the subject and will not be bothered to paint any face but their own. Your experience will not be personalized and you will not receive any advice from a fakeup artist. Their knowledge of beauty is self-benefiting - not carelessly provided during your very rushed consultation.

However, please continue and tell me again what you learned from Laura mercier that i will add to the secrets in my hair and never share with another soul for forever.”

“I’m really bad at faces.” - Kyle Brylin
