For those who have been asking, here’s my makeup look for auditions or when I actually put makeup on. (I’m going to do a skin care routine one sooooooon….) 💄
Foundation - I am a huge lover of Charlotte Tilbury's Magic Foundation! I get shiny really quickly so this is a great one that I don’t have to over powder. I recently bought Mac Studio Fix Fluid Foundation when my luggage got lost. I love the coverage but have a love/hate issue with how drying it is. Anyone else?? Concealer - I generally use Tarte Creaseless Under Eye Concealer but am not 100% sold on it. I’ve heard Tarte Shape Tape is the bomb but haven’t tried it yet. I picked up the Mac Pro Longwear Concealer with the luggage incident and really love it but again, it’s a bit drying which I don’t love. Powder - Make Up Forever Ultra HD Microfinishing Loose Powder - love it, swear by it, have used for years. Eyebrows - have been using Lancome Brow Shaping Powdery Pencil with Benefit Gimme Brow. Want desperately to try Glossier Boy Brow. Blush/Bronzer - Ish Contour Kit from my FabFitFun box. Highlighter - RMS Living Luminizer. So good. Put in the arches of my brows, the corner of my eyes. Sometimes use instead of an eye shodow on my eyelids. Eyeshadow - currently using the Pure Cosmetics Buff Collection from my fabfitfun box. Mascara - I curl my lashes then put some Maybelline Great Lash in Royal Blue then put Mac Extended Play Gigablack Lash Mascara. It helps to make your eyes whiter but this new Mac mascara which is a game changer!!! Lipstick - I LOVE Nars Velvet Matte Lip Pencils - I have about 20. They are easy to apply, don’t bleed and stay on fairly well. My two favourite are Sex Machine and Roman Holiday. I used Walkryie for the entire first season of @Siren. What are your fav’s right now?? 💋 #LTKbaby #LTKbeauty #LTKfamily #LTKitbag #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 Download the LIKEtoKNOW.it app to shop this pic via screenshot @liketoknow.it #liketkit http://liketk.it/2ARmg

Intarsia Cardina c/o Kersh Style | Double Scoop Tank c/o Kersh Style | An actor's life is a risky one. No guarantee of employment. Constantly on the hunt for that next gig. Spending hours on auditions without being paid. Sometimes working for free. You never know if your show is going to get renewed, if you are going to be in the next episode, or when you will book another job. A lot of actors ask me for advice about this. How do I stay sane in the midst of this? How do I stay positive and motivated? Recently, Geoffrey Owens (an actor known for his role on The Cosby Show) was shamed on social media because he took a job at Trader Joe's to take care of his family. He needed to get a job because they pulled The Cosby Show from air so he no longer received residual cheques that he was depending on to support his family. THERE IS NO SHAME IN HONEST WORK. That seriously broke my heart seeing it and I am so happy to see that since then, he has booked multiple jobs. So how do you stay positive and motivated? By doing things that you have control over. Booking a job = no control. No control over the people that make that decision to say YES. Of course, there are things you can do to set yourself up for success in booking that job (and I'll continue to give advice on that here on the blog) but ultimately, you have zero control. You are prepared, professional, polite, do your very best and then let it go. BUT you have to be able to buy food and pay your rent. Having a side gig is NO BIG DEAL. Actors get embarrassed about it but IT IS NOT FAILING. Taking care of yourself and/or your family is important. Find ways to do it that don't kill you inside. I have had some kind of a "regular" job to make money since I was 14. Heck, I sold knives at one point. I still do other things because this business has its ups and downs. And I want to have a life. Own a home. Take vacations. Enter KERSH STYLE. Sleeveless Floral Dress c/o Kersh Style I recently rediscovered this great Canadian clothing brand. I'm not the greatest at styling outfits but Kersh makes that so easy for me. From super comfy yet stylish outfits to dressy, business style, they have me covered, especially when auditioning! One audition to the next, I never know what that character will be. From playing a deputy one day, to the head of the psychology department the next, to a viking queen. Sometimes I wonder what my neighbours actually think I do.
If you love the clothing as much as I do and want some of their amazing pieces for yourself, check out their latest collection at KERSH STYLE. And now for the main reason for this post. Drumroll please... Did you know that Kersh offers a stylist program? Take control and work on your own terms and schedule - when you want, where you want! Ummm, making money and shopping = no brainer. So if you are interested in becoming a KERSH STYLIST and want to know more (they are looking for new stylists!) click HERE. Be sure to use code TAMMYG when shopping or signing up for their stylist program! Tammy xo p.s. If you aren't ready to become a stylist, you can host a trunk show where a stylist brings her boutique to you - invite your girlfriends over, drink some wine, network, shop and earn a little money! p.p.s.
