ARDELL'S Beauty Of The Week. Julie is determined, poised, beautiful and sharing her beauty secrets with us!
AR:
Tell us about yourself?
JU:
My name is Julie! I am a 2x Emmy award winning makeup artist. I am based in Los Angeles, CA. I have been a makeup artist since 2015.
AR:
Describe your earliest beauty memory.
JU:
My earliest beauty memory definitely comes from my mom doing her makeup. When she was done, I would run behind her and use whatever she left out.
AR:
Who had the biggest beauty influence on you growing up?
JU:
My biggest beauty influence is definitely my mother, she grew up on the island of Haiti. Growing up there she would use coal on her eyes as eyeliner or rub rose petals on her cheek as blush. She told me the stories growing up and they always stayed with me.
AR:
What is something that you no longer believe about beauty that you once did?
JU:
When I started learning how to do makeup I definitely believed I needed to master just one look for all my clients, but I learned that each face is different and need different products and tools.
AR:
How do you define beauty today?
JU:
I define beauty as feeling your best! Feeling your best to me is when people feel the most beautiful inside and in turn, you present the world the most beautiful version of yourself. This can mean using a blue eyeliner or just lip gloss if that is how you show up!
AR:
Do you have any favorite beauty practices that you swear by?
JU:
I definitely love moisturizing the skin! When your skin is fully moisturized your makeup allocation will come out flawless.
“I feel most beautiful when I practice self-love.” – Julie Jules
AR:
When do you feel most beautiful?
JU:
I feel most beautiful when I practice self-love. Self-love for me can be going on a hike, cleaning my makeup kit, taking a long bath, shopping for the latest beauty products and reading to name a few. All these things help me to be my best self and good to others.
AR:
What’s your go-to makeup or skin care routine?
JU:
For an everyday look I used toner, eye cream, moisturizer, sunscreen, serum foundation, concealer, counter powder palette, blush, brow gel, liquid highlight, gloss, and a Demi wisps lash!
AR:
What is the best beauty tip you’ve ever discovered?
JU:
The best tip I learned is to do all your liquid and cream products and then set them all at once
AR:
Do you listen to music when you get ready? If so, who is on your playlist?
JU:
I NEED music to get ready! I think music helps me move more efficiently and I tend to drop things less.
AR:
What would someone never guess about you?
JU:
People would never guess that I used to be a swim instructor.
AR:
What's next for you?
JU:
I am starting my own cosmetics line and I will be doing my first in person masterclass in Los Angeles.
