The beginning..... My first post....

Hi there,

I heard about the greatness of the blog, so I thought I will give it a shot. So far I'm so new here that I have no idea how to do this and that over here but with time I'm sure I'll be grand with it!

So Hi everyone who just clicked on my blog. My name is Sophia. I LOOOOOVE MAKE-UP AND FASHION! It's my biggest passion... (reminds me of the song Lola, you could sing it "Make-up and fashion were always her passion" I just wish I was at the Copacabana ;)))

I live in rainy Ireland over 4 years now.... and my biggest dream is to be a very popular Make-up artist among all the most important people in fashion... I wanna work with Marc Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld, Zouhar Murat, Galliano, and more.... I wanna be at birth of all the make-up trends for every season... Maybe create my own make-up brand - would love if it was accessible to everyone! Would like to write a book and do seminars and advice people what make-up to wear so they look their most fabulous... And I could be here until tomorrow telling you all my dreams ;)

I love photography and photo shoots, love being involved in the creation of a great picture! I love when photographer asks me for my opinion. I love the process of choosing that one picture that's outstanding!

I also love the backstage of a fashion show the buzzing and organized chaos, the rush and smell of hairspray in the air mixed with a scent of different perfumes and all that craziness !!!

When I was I kid I loved Barbies, I took them everywhere with me and cut their hair and put lip pencil on their lips and made clothes for them. I always had my friends coming to my place and play Barbies in my big Barbie House and all that. And then when I was about 12 years old there was a very sudden change in "come over play Barbies" to "come over and let me try to do your make-up". Parents were not happy all the time when their daughters came home with black eyeshadow and red lips. ;)

That's when it all started!!!

I FELL IN LOVE!

I fell in love with the way people look at themselves when they have a nice make-up on... I fell in love with the power I have to make people feel beautiful! I got unbelievable eager with wanting to know more about this beautiful art.... I loved the colors and big black lashes....nicely shaped eyebrows.... all of that I love to this day!
