In this episode of The Makeup Insider, we sit down with Andrea Damyon, a multifaceted makeup artist whose path to Fashion Week was anything but linear. From her beginnings in film and special effects to a pivotal role at Make Up For Ever, Andrea shares how a combination of skill, perseverance, and relationship-building helped shape her career.

We dive into the real logistics of Fashion Week—team coordination, last-minute curveballs, and navigating the industry’s financial grey areas. Plus, Andrea offers grounded advice on how to build your career without losing your individuality.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why genuine connection is your best career currency
  • The value (and limits) of product sponsorships
  • Navigating backstage etiquette and social media rules
  • Learning to trust your timing and your process
