I'm finally done slaving over papers and studying for final exams. But now I can be a voluntary slave to beauty with my new position as InStyle special issues (Weddings, Hair, Makeover...)!
I went into the interview thinking it was an internship position. Though a full-time, permanent job in magazines right after college is often the dream, it's rarely that easy. I figured that I'd get more experience and make more contacts in the industry, so there wasn't anything to lose by applying. During the interview, I found out that it was a freelance position and I get the luxury of calling myself a beauty assistant. When I met my now boss, she said the beauty team is very small--basically just me and her. It's the perfect situation--though it means a ton of responsibility, it also means a ton of experience.
Though I'll be busy blogging for InStyleWeddings.com and doing my beauty assistant duties, I want to keep my beauty blog alive to keep track of my journey as I slowly claw my way up the editorial ladder. It's fun seeing familiar faces at Time Inc. and it's good to know everyone in the messenger center remembers me from People because of all those bags of beauty products I made them bring up...
