Hey shopaholics! Being “paparazzi ready” is a necessity these days. With current social media tools such as Instagram and Facebook, it has become a need to document our looks for the public and no look is complete without a pop of colour on your face.
As for my internship, I am honoured to be representing one of the edgiest, subversive Parisian couture brand, Yves Saint Laurent Beauté as a makeup artist intern. Our makeup is inspired by Lloyd Simmonds, the Creative Director of Yves Saint Laurent Beauté which features our iconic products to die for such as Mascara Volume Effet Faux Cils, Rouge Pur Couture and our best seller, Touche Éclat highlighting pen.
What caught my attention was the preview of YSL Beaute's Holiday Collection on Oct 15 where 12 lucky Female magazine readers were invited for a preview before the actual launch of the product.

Our latest Encre De Peau Fusion
Ink foundation, the hugely hyped Holy Grail foundation is the iPhone equivalent
of the makeup industry, holding a 12,000 pre-sale waiting list at London’s
Selfridges makes it the makeup of legend.
On the day of the official
launch, before we even officially open the store at 10 in the morning, there
were already customers outside the store waiting to purchase the limited
edition Kiss and Love range.
Within 2 days, the Kiss and Love
edition were sold out. Of course, disappointed fans left with regrets for not
arriving earlier as reservations of limited edition products are not allowed.
Other than this launch, being in
YSL as an intern has been a fruitful experience for me as I get to meet people from all
walks of life and of course, taking my makeup skills to the next level.
Just remember, no amount of
makeup can mask an ugly heart!
