2) Disposable Mascara and Lip Wands – Mascara and lip products are not something you want to share. The eyes and mouth is host to a lot of bacteria so you want to make sure you’re utilizing disposable applicators whenever possible. You can usually acquire these from your local beauty supply store or buy them in bulk at a makeup artist trade show like IMATS.

- I’m so the same way…which can be really hard when you’re an aritrt/illustratos. People want me to do illustrations in the order the pages come in…and inspiration just doesn’t work that way. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that! Good for you, for doing it YOUR way. That shows some real chutzpah. (Just a little yiddish, to end on.) January 10, 2011 - 9:38 am
