Hello Everyone,
we have added more footage from master makeup artist Jim Sacca on the blog, makeupincwithjimsacca.blogspot.com.
Season 1 is shortly coming to an end, but we have a couple of amazing surprises in store for you before we wrap it up. Not to worry though, we are already prepping Season 2, with even more amazing shows with Jim.
We wanted to also welcome Debra Weite (http://www.debraweite.com/), a super star hair stylist, who is joining Jim on his blog as both a contributing author as well as some shows. We are in development on a show with her, and what an honor it will be to have her part of our team.
A shout goes out for the amazing Flip Camera, who has been our faithful companion so far.
It's been an amazing tool that allowed us to work in small spaces under very low lighting situations. It may not be big budget movie ready (it's not), but this little camera has amazing capabilities. Sound is also pretty terrific considering the size.
Stay tuned, as more is coming!
Ciao!

A Big Thank You to our Affiliates!
We wanted to thank our affiliates, Cinema Secrets and Kryolan Corporation.
Cinema Secrets (http://www.cinemasecrets.com) was founded by Hollywood’s Maurice Stein in 1984, when he retired from his successful career of Professional Makeup to open a small beauty, special effects, and cosmetic supply business in Burbank, California. Maurice's reputation and expertise made the Burbank beauty supply an instant hit among entertainment industry makeup artists and professionals.
Opening the beauty supply became a family endeavor. Everyone waited on customers, Barbara did the books, Maurice handled the front, and with a couple of employees, Cinema Secrets quickly became a destination for the professional makeup artist, the studios, and many of Hollywood’s most expensive faces.
By 1989 the Cinema Secrets Beauty Supply was busting at the seams. “We could not fit one more box of tissues in the building without a case of sponges being pushed out of a window somewhere,” says Maurice. “We had to find a bigger facility, and something that could handle our growth and my vision.” Later that year, Cinema Secrets moved to its current location in Burbank. This new location was close enough to the major studios where our service quickly became synonymous with our reputation – “Family owned, Family Operated, and proud to help and service you.”
In 1990 Maurice started thinking about technology, healthy formulation components and cosmetic formulations all of which resulted in the development of Cinema Secrets Cosmetics. Cinema Secrets quickly became used by not only professionals in Hollywood, but noted as an advanced standard in the development of a clinical makeup that was successfully tested and used in the medical industry as well.
In the early years, Maurice and “the boys,” Michael and Danny, spent many Saturday afternoons pouring their own latex appliances and selling them in the store. In 1992, we re-introduced Woochie™ to the world and opened our seasonal division which now sells Cinema Secrets costumes and Woochie™ to the world.
Maurice and his family all play important roles in the company and maintain an active presence in the business. Now the grandchildren are on the horizon and a family tradition can continue into the future.
Through the years, Cinema Secrets has launched Cinema Secrets Cosmetics, Cinema Secrets Seasonal products, and expanded on the education and knowledge base of working makeup professionals in its Education Division.
For more than 60 years KRYOLAN Professional Make-up (www.kryolan.com) is a specialized manufacturer of professional make-up serving theater, film, and television around the globe. KRYOLAN is also engaged to establish their products more towards the beauty sector.
The headquarters with a surface of 5000 m² has been located in the Berlin Papierstrasse in the north of the city since 1971. Ever since its modest beginnings, this company site has been continuously improved and expanded. More than 240 employees in Berlin and Zehlendorf but also at the international sites in Poland, England, USA, India and Bangladesh are committed to furthering the KRYOLAN trademark and daily endeavor to satisfy all customer wishes.
Today KRYOLAN Professional Make-up delivers to customers in more than 70 countries on all continents of the world and is an acknowledged trademark for professional make-up artists. The name KRYOLAN and its other trademarks stand for professional competence, high product quality, exceptional diversity, professionalism, flexibility and tradition.
At the company·s headquarters in Berlin, Germany qualified chemists continuously work developing new products, looking for innovative raw materials with special skin caring properties. With the experience of more than 6 decades KRYOLAN Professional Make-up understands to its best the need of qualified professional make-up artists working in the entertainment industry.
