My name is Agi and I'm a fanatic about makeup! I'm 27 years old working my way up in this world. I love to sleep long so despite my passion for makeup I usually end up going to work barely wearing any mascara or an eyeliner. Since I have brown eyes it is very hard for me to find a perfect eye shadow and usually before a party after an hour of preparation of a smoky eye effect I wash it all off and leave with hardly anything on. I found your website by chance and have to say that your tutorials are the most interesting and thorough I have ever watched. I cannot wait to try all your tips!

Since english is not my native language there may sneak in some language 'faux pas' in my posts so please be lenient ;-)

Welcome Michagi!! Your english is perfect!! Where are you from? I love to sleep too, and would much rather sleep in then get up early to apply makeup :) I really like cream to powder eyeshadows for every day wear like Benefit Cream Creaseless Shadow Liners, you can put them on with your finger and they are somewhat neutral so it is easy to apply even on your way into work. They have a color called RSVP which is really pretty with brown eyes. I am going to do a series of videos this week on creating quick 5 minute looks for back to school or work :)

Hey Critty,
I'm Polish but I studied in Cambridge and currently live and work in London. Sleeping in is my second name ;-) I have to be at work every day by 9.30 and I figured out that the most optimal time for me to get up is 7.52 - not more and not less, just enough time for all the most essential 'grooming' things. Thank you for the tip with the cream shadows. I need to try them out. Looking forward to your '5 minute looks' videos! :-)

Wow Agi - Cambridge? I am super impressed!! No wonder your English is fab :) I am off to film my first 5 min look right now! It should be up later this afternoon :)

It was fantastic to study there but the reality check point, which is actually London is faaaaaar from what I imagined it would be. I still am not sure if business/finance is who I really am, but at the time of choosing my profession it seemed a good choice... Only brave people can follow their dreams, eg. you, doing this whole website and still being able to follow you dreams... I wish I had enough courage to be 'myself'...
Anyways, will check the 5 minute tutorial in a bit. You cannot imagine how great it is that you're doing it!

Agi - there is so much you can do with business, including starting your own! I went to university for english lit, because I didn't think I could actually do makeup because I didn't want to touch strangers - lol. I then rotted in the corporate world for a few years til I went back to school for makeup. Then I got sick, and reinvented my passion into a website - your life can turn in many unexpected ways, but the key is to always be learning, and it sounds like you are very smart, so just keep learning and absorbing until you find your passion. And when you find it, you will have all sorts of knowledge to help you succeed :)
