Despite being a huge Youtube success, we at C.A HQ hadn't heard of beauty vloggerMichelle Phan until getting a recent press release from Lancôme saying that they have signed the 22 year old student as their official video makeup artist.
"Michelle is a true makeup prodigy," says Serge Jureidini, President of Lancôme USA. "She represents the next generation of both makeup users and makeup artists."
It would be lying to say we didn't collectively waste an afternoon of productivity watching video after video. Even Claire, who works remotely from the US was messaging me:
2:17 PM
Claire: I was just watching this youtube makeup artist Michelle Phan. She has the most amazing makeover videos! It's very inspiring. If you have time, check out her Tim Burton-inspired one (newest). She's just been picked up by Lancome
me: I know - she's amazing
was watching her last night too
on phone
Claire: lol!
k
I even flirted with the idea of trying the tiger eyes myself at home. Well, not really.
Michelle is extremely talented and a great example of how following your passion can launch an amazing career without following traditional channels. This Tim Burton makeover is one of our favourites. We wish her much success with her Lancôme partnership.
The question is, long can you watch these before getting in trouble with your boss?
