Ep. 277: Talking makeup, art, subjectivity and making your foundation last longer with Dom Skinner Director of Makeup Artistry at MAC Cosmetics

BeautyMe with Charisse Kenion

In this episode I talk to the brilliant Dominic Skinner, Director of Makeup Artistry at MAC Cosmetics and it is SUCH a good chat.

Many of you will know Dom and his signature moustache from the hit TV show Glow Up, currently on Netflix, but he’s been working at MAC for 20 years now, so you can imagine how many stories he has to share.

We cover Dom’s early days of working at MAC Cosmetics and he shares a wide array of life insights from how he truly embraced who he was, how he adapted after divorce and how he learned to be more selfish with his time.

Of course we also talk about his new book, Glowography which is out October 24th!

This is a great episode for anyone who wants to know more about working in makeup but it’s also the perfect wake-up call for anyone who needs to hear it.
