In today’s episode of Ask Your Best Friend in Beauty, I’m answering a heartfelt letter from New Brush on the Block—a beginner makeup artist who’s eager to build a professional kit but feels overwhelmed by the pressure to keep up with seasoned pros and expensive products.
If you're just getting started and wondering how to build a makeup kit on a budget, where to invest first, and how to show up confidently with what you have—this episode is for you! I’m breaking down kit-building essentials, mindset shifts, and reminding you that professionalism isn’t about the price tag, it’s about the passion and preparation.
Plus, I’m sharing my free guide: “13 Ways To Grow Your Clientele (Even if You’re Just Starting Out)” to help you attract paying clients while staying in your lane and leveling up your artistry.
