The journey into Makeup and Special FX is a grueling one, but it doesn't have to be a lonely one. Nicole Diehl and Kathleen Berg are wonderful examples of how two individuals can work together to better each other and still find time to stay extremely close as friends!

Kathleen has found herself growing the makeup industry as well but does so as a Sales and Admissions rep for the Academy. Both ladies took classes together at MMA, but as you can see, the diverging paths can still lead one to success.

Welcome to Episode 2 of Makeup Your Life! The individual entrusting Matt and Kelsey to deliver the much-needed message from this show is Devawn Testagrossa. She's been wanting a show that lets people know that makeup is a possibility for everyone and that it's never too late!

For Devawn, that message couldn't relate more to her personal journey. Check out her story as she tells us all about switching careers, turning her makeup career into an entrepreneurial venture with Multimedia Makeup Academy, and how she continues to help the makeup community today! As you'll hear, we could not have been more excited to kick this interview off and we hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording!

Kelsey and Matt are SO excited to share with you, the journey of one of their friends and colleagues, Christina Newman. Christina is a Special FX Makeup Artist who has helped put together zombies, talking rats, and some gruesome horror effects. She now is the lead instructor at a Special FX and makeup school and she was gracious enough to take a little bit of time out of her day to encourage YOU to consider Special FX and makeup for your future.

Matthew Klink (of the Brothers of Discussion) and Kelsey Reynolds bring you tales of Makeup Artists learning how to become artists and how they became themselves. 

Kelsey and Matt give you insight into how this show started, what you have to look forward to and how to keep up!
