Kandee Sleep Stats: fall asleep at 4am (up working on everything for Glaminars) If it weren't for my friend calling me at around 3 am.....I would've kept working! ha ha ha) wake up at 7am- back to my little spot on the computer....at my kitchen counter!
but here it is! With much work on filming and editing.....and lots of hours....God has placed such wonderful people in my life... Lawrence Lim took the time out of his busy schedule to film the LA Glaminars....and Ian Ruhter, who is also incredibly busy with his own amazing projects, took the time to direct this and they both had a jam-editing session yesterday...to produce this little diamond, I like to call.... Kandee and the Glams.....hee hee hee
get out your popcorn and enjoy this short film.....very short....30 seconds of wonderment! hee hee tell me what you think guys! xo kandee
I've never been to New York, so I am so excited!!! My sister won a YM magazine Covergirl contest in high school...and she got to go....I thought she had a ticket for a companion and I was so excited....but alas...they only wanted her there, not her overly-excited sister! ha ha ha ha
I love every movie filmed there....I have dreamed about living there and feeling the energy vibrating off every wall and sidewalk....I can't wait!!!
Soooo, since someone did a break down of the most requested Glaminar cities....NY won, hands down. We are working on locking dates in...most likely the end of July or beginning of August.
And I want to know what you guys would most like to learn...
how to get into make-up artistry as a profession
how to just look beautiful, all the things you never learned about make-up
how to get into bridal make-up (it's one of the most lucrative out there)
please let me know, because this is for you guys and I want to teach what you want to know....!
I can't wait to meet all of you, fill your dream tanks up with all the encouragement and knowledge you need to reach the stars....
here's just a sample of some of the comments I received from the LA Glaminars:
You are a beautiful person inside and out Kandee... you are so talented...so incredibly sweet and funny... you truly are an inspiration to so many... I will say you have made a huge imprint in my life that I will never forget... Your light and spark and love for life were my inspiration to try and pursue my dreams and for once do something for myself to make ME happy! Haha! I think if someone asked me who I wanted to be like when I grew up... I would say Kandee Johnson...hands down!!!! :) So smile hun :) Those sour people are so not worth your time... you have so much color to add to this world.... and are one of the kindest hearted people I have ever met... Meeting you in person and working with some people from your team was so refreshing and made me realize for the first time in a long time that there are still really great people in this world...- HEATHER
im writing this to you to let you know how genuine i am when i say how you’ve inspired me so much, when i went to your glaminars i just felt so empowered & happy, I left believing I could be anything. You didn’t just give me a piece of paper saying "i've been there" you gave me such courage & strength & a future & most of all you let me know its not silly or impractical to follow my dreams, regardless of what anyone says, even if i don’t make “a living” at it (yet) =) I wouldn’t trade what you’ve given me for anything else in the world. I will carry that strength & knowledge with me for the rest of my life, I just had to let you know you’ve changed my life & I will be forever thankful to you for that. - BROOKE
Anyway, I have been telling everyone what a wonderful time I had in LA starting with the Glaminar on Friday night and concluding with IMATS on Saturday. Wait until you see what's happened to me since I left the Glaminar...when you shot that burst of positive energy to me from the stage...remember? Well I took it to the show and you're not going to believe what happpened next.- TRICIA
