#35 The Real Reason Your Makeup Work Isn’t Getting Noticed

If you feel like you’re putting in the work but your makeup isn’t getting noticed, this episode is for you. A lot of artists think standing out is about being different, but the truth is—it’s about refining your skills, developing your taste level, and consistently putting out high-quality work. And that takes time.



In this episode, we’re breaking down:




• The biggest reasons your work might not be getting noticed


• Why consistency, skill level, and presentation matter more than being “unique”


• How practicing more will change everything for you


• The role of lighting and photography in making your work stand out




Key Takeaways: 




• A signature style develops over time—you can’t rush it.


• Clients and industry professionals book artists whose work looks polished and professional.


• If you’re not practicing enough, your work won’t improve fast enough to get noticed.


• The way you photograph and present your work is just as important as the application itself.
