Jennifer Lawrence Covers Vogue

Jennifer Lawrence has landed her first Vogue cover! Not only that - she nabbed the cover of the coveted September issue. Hollywood's "It" girl got her start at 14 when a model scout photographed her in New York's Union Square. In the issue, Jennifer talks about deciding to be an actress and why she chose to do the Hunger Games films. 

"When 'Winter's Bone' was getting nominated [for an Oscar] I had only done indies, and suddenly I was introduced to this brand-new world where I didn't feel like myself. I was in these weird gowns and listening to people talk about things I didn't understand. And I remember reading that in [The Hunger Games] and being like, Oh my God, I know exactly what this feels like. I don't know what it's like to get ready for your death, but I do know what it's like to be almost a puppet. And then when I was making the second film, I had become more acquainted with that world, and I think that's something that Katniss experiences. She is different when she comes back [in 'Catching Fire']. She does feel more comfortable in the Capitol; she understands the people more, and it's not as eerie and scary and unfamiliar. She kind of knows how to work the system."

We love Jennifer and can't wait to pick up the issue, hitting stands August 20th!

MAKEUP ARTIST OF THE MONTH: SOPHIA J

Sophia is a New York based Makeup Artist and has been a professional makeup artist for over 2 years. She has always had an interest in makeup  - as a child, she would always play with her mother's makeup and try on her clothes (as most little girls do). There was no doubt in her mind that she wanted a career in the beauty/fashion industry.

Her transition into makeup artistry was a smooth one because she started an independent Avon representative and had access to an unlimited amount of makeup. Her growing customers would constantly ask about makeup application or wanted their makeup done. After a couple of successful sessions, Sophia decided to take a makeup course at NYC Chic Studio. There she learned the history of makeup products, application preparation, and business etiquette. Soon after, she was freelancing, networking and began doing photo shoots, music videos and movies.  She has met and worked with several people. In the future, Sophia plans on creating a line of makeup brushes as well as a clothing line - merging her two passions together.
