I was just starting out being a makeup artist and had done just like 2 big jobs one of which was for press ads and not so much makeup was needed. I had become friends with her on FB and seeing her in person and then getting a compliment from her? that was the best thing in the world that happened to me that day, lol.

The next time I had a personal contact with
her was on facebook, a few months after I had created the Nigerian MUAs group
on facebook and she sent me a very encouraging FB message (thank you so much
for that message Eni. Im sure you couldn’t have imagined how much I needed it)
and then she sent me another message asking if I would be interested in being
the only blogger to cover the LISE Free Makeup Workshop & Review event and
also to host a 2 week giveaway of LISE products on my blog you can be sure I
took up the offer.

She doesn’t like interviews of any sort and
I had to practically chase her around the world with the few questions I have
below.
Trainings - imparting valuable knowledge into the lives of upcoming makeup artists who register at Lise Makeup School.

1923 Blog: What, in your opinion, are MUA kit must haves?
Eyebrow shavers, threads and hand sanitizers. MUAs should not be seen using razors (ever).
1923 Blog: Who are your mentors?
Michael DeVallis and James Vincent
1923 Blog: If you weren’t a makeup artist what would you have been?
I love working with my hands so if i was not a makeup artist, i would have been a surgeon
1923 Blog: Most memorable and worst makeup artist experience
Worst: It was the first Monday of the year and it was to be a boat registry, the car got stuck somewhere and I had to take a bike. I was still late and she still blames me till today. It was a very frightful day because I took a bike which I never do. She made me take a bike and yet I didn’t make it in time. Sad story.
My best was an Indian wedding I did in
America. It was a calm relaxed atmosphere, I had so much fun, the bride was
happy (Eni to send picture)
1923 Blog: What attitude do you think Nigerian MUAs should cultivate?
Professionalism, the art of listening to what the Client wants and acquiring the right professional tools.

The 50s, in my opinion, this was the beginning of fashion and preppy chic.
Marilyn Munroe is my favourite diva. She is so sexy and embodies a 'woman'
Would you like to know more about Eni & LISE Beauty? Or is there any question you would like more clarification on?
Please feel free to indicate in the comments section and I am very sure that
Eni will be only too happy to respond.
