INSIDE MY FREELANCE MUA KIT + Investments + 6 Years Experience

[@makeupbylizzie]

You seem like a really chill person! 💕

[@ThatsSoYin]

I really am!

[@jamecia90s]

"Don't do that, thats nasty! " A lot of people need to hear this girl

[@ThatsSoYin]

GIRL even working with Shiseido, some girls at the counter really don’t CARE about sanitization. I scream every single time.

[@nucleotidea]

My fav part was when you said dont ever do that that's nasty 😂😂

[@ThatsSoYin]

You’d be surprised at how the amount of people who don’t care about sanitization!!

[@soulchild05]

Everytime you put your face in the camera and scold us I crack up 😂. But seriously I hope there are no MUAs out there using the same mascara wand on all their clients 🤢

[@ThatsSoYin]

So when I was working during holiday, one of the employees took the mascara displays and used it directly on her eyes. I DONT TRUST ANYONE.

[@chiczazil]

I have seen reels on insta were they use the same wand that comes with the mascara. Also the lip brush from the lipstick or gloss.. that's so fckng gross

[@Verbsdescribeus]

Omg! You started as a MUA since you were 16!!! How amazing is that! Love that colorful Revolution palette I have one Maxi Reloaded too :) that collection of UD foundations is impressive!!! they are cruelty free :) and you are right about keeping clean and sanitized :) thank you for pointing that out! :D

[@ThatsSoYin]

I recently decluttered my Revolution palette because a lot of the pastel shades were not worth keeping around! I’ve then changed to Kaleidos which have amazing pigment!

[@freewilledmakeupconceptsby9734]

Omg it's so funny when you put your face too close to the camera while you nag the makeup sanitation violators,but seriously it's just real talk & helpful advice to us makeup artists to take care of our tools & kits properly & in a more hygienic way 😊

[@ThatsSoYin]

Yes! I have more videos on tiktok about sanitization.

[@darkdevilhikaru]

it gives a new perspective on how you work during covid

[@ThatsSoYin]

Oh definitely. I’m trying my best to protect myself and others while simultaneously offering a service

[@okfarha88]

My god! So many items? I could never manage this much work. Hats off to you

[@ThatsSoYin]

This is honestly the most I’ve condensed it to! I used to carry a lot more which made the case so heavy!

[@chiczazil]

I didn't find the sanitizer spray in the page... may it be discontinued? 😕😫😥 Btw palettes get cleaned after use too.

[@ThatsSoYin]

The alcohol spray? Palettes are cleaned on site when working as well, I just do a deeper clean at home because I’m able to dedicate more time to them. In this video, I just came home from work and was not able to get to that yet!

[@sarahdavis85]

Urban decay gives students snd artist 50 off on most stuff the big bummer is you can’t use it on the all nighter spray!!!

[@ThatsSoYin]

I signed up for that! It’s a great way to save, but it’s still expensive when you buy I’m bulk like me😭😂

[@jenm473]

I thought this video wouldn't be for me, but glad I put it in my playlist. Its nice knowing products you trust to use professionally. I have heard so so many talk about that friendcation palette, but it must have come out before I got started playing in makeup. I probably don't need it, but the love everyone has gets me!! I also love seeing your professionalism (and how you grew up!! - don't see that as much these days of people in their 20's.) but along with being professional, you are hilarious!! I adore the dry humor!! thankyou!! So any blessings and love in all your business ventures - wish you could come give me a makeover!! Or atleast show and tell what is best for me!! Have a beautiful weekend!!

[@ThatsSoYin]

There have been TOO many times where I was working and the artists don’t take sanitization seriously. I scream every time and I want to tear my hair out!! The friendcation palette goes on sale at ulta every so often for about 40-50% off so maybe it’s worth it for that price! And I’ll also just toss this in, but I do offer virtual makeup and skincare classes where we discuss your makeup or skincare dilemma and I help guide you through it one on one!

[@jenm473]

@@ThatsSoYin I've seen hair stylists do it, and yes, us customers notice. So Friendcation really is all that still? I was hoping you'd say different, lol!! Please let me know next time you do those classes and if I have the budget, I'll do it, but you may be shocked at me horrible lack of knowledge, even with all the videos I watch. Mainly just too tired to care, but I finally got a diagnosis and may be able to get help now. They weren't listening and thought it was just all my other health stuff, but I know my body and have always fought thru those, this was different.Thankfully that means I still know it a little, and maybe I can have some energy within a few months I pray. Hitting the bed soon (its 1:30in the morning here, lol). Many blessings!!!

[@ThatsSoYin]

You can actually book at any time you’d like through my website on my Instagram! I’m always available!

[@ana-dn8jk]

this was so entertaining to waaaaatch!! Your energy is eVERYTHING HAHA

[@ThatsSoYin]

Thank you!!!!

[@98QUEENVEE]

Love you vibe hahaha and your seriousness 😂😍💯💯👏

[@ThatsSoYin]

Hahaha thank you!!

[@Lowdermoomoo]

A lot of people think that freelance artists are not as clean as a contract artist, but Ive seen contract artists work a few times and seen some nasty stuff. Like uhhhhh. I also hate when clients start grabbing stuff out of the kit and using it, like an eyeliner or mascara like if you sit still I will not poke you in the eye, I promise, also, toss it in the trash when you’re done.

[@ThatsSoYin]

I hope to never encounter a client who uses my makeup straight on their face without asking. At that point, I’m with you on throwing out the product entirely

[@vix4x41]

You have such a good work ethic! I’m always impressed by you.

[@ThatsSoYin]

Thank you❤️❤️

[@vlakz3308]

I love your humour! About sanitary and tarte shape tape ones, so enjoyable to watch! 🥰I can watch your videos all day long. I also seen some of your replies in some comments and I do agree. I used to work in a company and they have a brand as their sponsor and host a beauty class. I do makeup professionally so I bring my own sanitary kit, brushes, firstvaid kit just in case me and my colleagues encounter allergies, disposables, and some products I know I am comfortable with. And gurl, they won't allow me at all to use them like wtf. They only provide one single sponge (the square sponge we usually get from purchasing a two way cake powder) to use for four people and did not clean the products well. Some of them even has a fungus in it and I am horrified. Don't ever start with the mascara. I am legit crying and brimming in anxiety. They also dripping product like crazy and touching everyone all over and did not even clean their hands afterwards. And she (one of the instructors) even dare to took my own foundation brush and laid it on dirty table, took the dirty sponge and dab it roughly at my face ans said that I do it wrong and if I need her services for graduation or wedding I can call her up. I was like, I can call myself thank you and please stop beating my face pls, it is nasty. I ended up washing my face afterwards and gain so many acnes I need two whole months to calm them down.

[@ThatsSoYin]

GURL YOU DID NOT GET ACNE FOR WEEKS I AM SCREAMINGGGG. STOP THAT. Sanitization isn’t even that hard and can literally be learned in minutes. I guess some people are so accustom to applying makeup on themselves and don’t care if brushes touch the counter, but forget that you’re working with a client!!

[@vlakz3308]

@@ThatsSoYin They do work for brands as marketer and on counter, and in my country they did not pay much care in sanitation. Only freelance ones do or even some of them did not do it too. I thank my mum and uncles to let me take a Cosmetology in Paul Mitchell or I won't know at all when I went back to my own country. P.s. I really do😭 I am terribly sensitive over bacterias and their nasty friends (hence the ongoing acne 😞) thus enhanced with my own OCD, I always keep my things sanitary and downsized to hell 🥰

[@dravenxxmarie]

I had the same case for my first case. I loved it, but it was impossible to tilt it like my zuca. After awhile it did start to fall apart, but it was much loved.

[@ThatsSoYin]

I just got a new one that looks the exact same but now with 4 wheels. Easier to tilt and roll!

[@fashionsenses1]

Hey girl! I love that you are striving to keep things sanitary! I just wanted to let you know the standard is 70% alcohol, not 90%. 90% dries too fast to actually sanitize.

[@ThatsSoYin]

You know, I actually ran out of my 90% and the only thing I could buy was 70% so I guess it’s a good thing!

[@fashionsenses1]

😍Love love love your safety first attitude!!! 😍 I've been saving this one for when I was ready to invest.

They are my everyday must & my Rxs cannot be minimized any more than they are. 🙈 ♡♡♡

Totally understandable! I hate being tempted when I’m not financially stable. Hope you find the kit that will fit your budget!

[@ThatsSoYin]

It’s so cute!!

[@sarahdavis85]

Can’t you charge them more for using luxury and high end products? Also do you ever offer them to bring there own foundation or makeup they have if they are more comfortable?

[@ThatsSoYin]

I could charge more, but that would mean I’d have to have a whole separate kit for drugstore products which is a hassle because I used to do that years ago! I always want my clients to feel comfortable so the option for them to bring their products is always open! Through my years of working, I’ve only had about 2 clients who ever brought in anything extra.

[@salekahussain8334]

Omg u have the same name as my Beautiful Princess Jasmine! Yassss girl I feel u, u won't believe how unhygienic some ppl are, it's absolutely disgusting! I Alway's carry those disposable mascara wands n doe foot lip applicator's for each client, Never use the same applicator's plus I think it was from Amazon I got disposable plastic lipstick scrapers so u just scrape bullet lipstick on to a palette n use. I also carry 6-7 of the same eye or face brushes so each client gets their own ones Never use the same brushes on everyone!! U do NEED to keep hand sanitiser's, makeup wipe's n anti bacterial wipe's so Hygiene is Key! When I first started my case was one of those metal cases with abt 4-5 compartment's so I had diff compartment for diff product's n the bottom compartment was for big bulky item's like hair product's even though I don't do hair but like u I can do simply style's I'm just a pro Mua but Not a hairstylist! I learnt as I went coz things aren't alway's the same n u start to invest more in product's as u learn n adapt. Palette's are a good way to start even concealer that come in palette's are a good idea n then build as u go. New subbie from London, just Love ur vibe girl keep it up! 👍❤️

[@ThatsSoYin]

For my kit I think I have about 100 brushes of the same kind for the same reason as you! Each week I’m replenishing my antibacterial wipes and alcohol which is a good sign! Sending you love!

You're like my make up guru😅😂🙈Fun fact, I felt so attacked but in a good way when you said: "If you use the same wand of your mascara... You're nasty!" 😣😂😅I'm dead.. but for sure don't do that anymore cuz I used to in the beginning😅

[@ThatsSoYin]

Oh my god. Well at least you know better to use disposable wands❤️

[@gracekarijodiwirijo1703]

Yeaaa gurl!!😅😣😣 So glad I found your channel🤗 Cuz I was looking for AOA Studio reviews and enjoyed your videos until now😊 Congrats with your new business and may it grow and become successful 💖

Thank you! It’s been growing tremendously this year and I hope that it continues to grow in 2021❤️

[@bajanbreezy]

You should show us how to clean professionally

[@ThatsSoYin]

Honestly there are so many tutorials that I watched that explain so much better than how I would

[@KrystenStrunck]

thank you! I was using a makeup forever case when I just started and I’m ready for something different especially because I’ll be traveling a bit more at the beginning of this year for makeup. I was looking for a train case but al the reviews are like it already scratched or crack or the wheel popped off. I feel like It won’t last for what I need it for.

[@KrystenStrunck]

I totally get the “incase I have to” brushes 😂

[@ThatsSoYin]

My old one definitely lasted me a couple of years, but it was really heavy. Smart choice in looking at the reviews as opposed to just buying the most inexpensive one!

[@KrystenStrunck]

yeah I wanted it so it can roll so I don’t have to carry it as much and I’m short so I really appreciate this video lol cause I would’ve hated carrying it and stuff with it being so long.I’m pretty petite and not strong lol.

Don’t do that!! That’s Nasty!!! Oh man she made me want to piss my pants and spit out my soda when she said that for the second time!!! Oh man I think using disposables would be just understood and mainly common sense!!! If you don’t know this and you are an artist you might want to seek a different profession!!!

[@ThatsSoYin]

Girl back in December I was working at the Shiseido counter (which is my other job) and one of the artists went up to the mascaras and used it directly in her eyes. SO MANY THINGS WRONG!! You know I went up to her and told her how unsanitary that was and that she could literally get an infection, but she didn’t care!

[@sarahdavis85]

ThatsSoYin oh I’m sure did you say anything like you aren’t allowed to do that!!!
