Bailey Sarian on the 3 makeup items every lady must have

Who is Bailey Sarian?

Thank you for reaching out to me! A little about me, well, I am living in a small town in Southern California. Have been working in the makeup industry for about 7 years now. I started at Sephora for 5 years, then worked for Urban Decay for almost a year and now I am working as a freelance makeup artist. I am so thankful to be working as a makeup assistant currently for Jill Powell, who is an AMAZING makeup artist.

When not working with Jill, I do a lot of wedding and spacial events makeup for clients. It’s always fun being a part of someones special day and helping them feel beautiful for any occasion. When NOT doing makeup, I take art classes to keep myself busy and inspired and you can also find me on YouTube ! I love making makeup tutorials fun and EASY! That’s my goal. Anybody can do makeup, and I want to help anyone out there who thinks they can’t.

What was the inspiration behind your interest in beauty?

It was all an accident, really. I never wore makeup growing up, didn’t get into it until I was about 20. I have been taking art classes for quite some time now and I love painting and drawing. I had walked into a sephora near by and was offered a job. I guess they liked the green sparkly eyeshadow I had thrown on that day, haha. I took the position and it was all downhill from there. I realized that painting and doing makeup art were almost the same thing! To me, it wasn’t about covering someones imperfections, it was about enhancing someones features or having fun with color! Makeup made me realize you can look and be whoever you want to be for the day! It’s a lot of fun and shouldn’t be taken so seriously. It’s just makeup and it washes off, quite easily actually.

What are some of the most interesting makeovers you have ever done?

Interesting? That’s a hard one. They’re all pretty fun to me. I have had clients from all walks of life. Covering tattoos is always fun to me. OH WAIT, I just thought of a good one. I was working in store and a lady came in with huge glasses and asked if I could cover a black eye. I got a little nervous , I always think the worst so here I am thinking, “Oh my gosh she’s probably in an abusive relationship.” I don’t know why, but that was my first thought. So, she takes off her glasses , really deep purple/blue black eye. She had told me she went to every makeup store and nobody could cover it for her, so that made me excited because I love a challenge.

ANYWAYS, We get to talking, she finally opens up and tells me she got a nose job and the following day was her rehearsal dinner and nobody knows she got a nose job. I couldn’t help but laugh because, why would you get a nose job so close to the rehearsal date? I ended up covering it for her and she asked if she could fly me out to New York where she was getting married to do her makeup for her. That one went down in the books for sure! My advice to you out there, give yourself a good amount of time to heal from a nose job before any special events!! Sadly, I couldn’t go to New York due to a previous engagement, which I almost just wanted to call off. Ive never been to New York before hahaha.

Does everyone look better with makeup?

NO not at all. You know what looks good? Confidence. I’ve seen gorgeous women who never wear makeup and don’t ever need to. Makeup is fun, but people shouldn’t rely on it to cover their insecurities.

What 3 makeup items should no woman go out without?

That’s a hard one, probably, mascara, an easy way to make the eyes look bigger and more awake. Concealer, a little bit under the eyes can make you look like you got 8 hours of sleep when really you only got 4. And, a lip treatment. Whether it be chapstick , lipgloss, lipstick. But something that can add a little wash of color and hydrate the lips.

What are some common makeup mistakes our female readers should take note of not to make?  

Brows are always a challenge and I will be first to admit I have gone through some BAD brow stages, but, I see so many girls who do such heavy, boxy brows! I love a dark brow but try to hold back a little. Try not to make them so square, so close together and so big.

What secrets can you share to achieve gorgeous skin in minutes if one does not have all morning to get ready?

Mix a pump of your foundation in with your moisturizer for a quick light coverage, foundation. This will give the skin hydration but also even out your skin tone. Use your lipstick as a cheek color as well! Either dab it on with your fingers on the apple of your cheeks or use a brush. Fingers are always easiest. It makes the best cream blush. Set with a little bit of translucent powder and there you go, easy, natural, luminous skin.

If you had 24 hours to do anything you want, what will it be?

Anything I wanted? That’s a hard one. Rob a bank? Hahaha. I’m kidding, maybe. I don’t know, maybe go on a trip. Ive never gone anywhere! Just Vegas, and Utah for work. I need to venture out more.

It’s a pleasure to feature you Bailey. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

Confidence is sexy.
