The Beauty Secrets Behind NYFW with Makeup Artist T. Cooper

0:00Hey guys, welcome back to Skin Anarchy. This is Ekta. I'm really really excited about our episode today because we're going to be getting some key insights from someone who's been behind the scenes with New York Fashion and I'm really excited to skin and I'm really excited to skin and I'm really excited for the skin and I'm really good for the way to be is as makeup and you know professional makeup especially I mean that's truly remarkable so without further ado please welcome T Cooper welcome T I'm so excited to host you hi thank you so much for having me excited to be here yeah I'm excited to chat with you I can't wait to learn from you I know that you have so much experience and there's so much cool stuff that you've you've done and you've seen you know especially working with so many different people so I'd love to dive into that but I want to learn a little bit about your journey like what got you involved with the makeup scene and what led you to makeup oh gosh okay so whenever i tell this story i always preface it by saying i can't give you the story that you want the story where i say i did my makeup as a kid i did it on my dolls i did it on my mom i practiced i didn't give a crap about any of that so um it was not that journey um probably six months prior to me becoming a makeup artist, I would have laughed in your face if you had told me that I would have become a makeup artist.

1:30I was a professional tailor. Oh, wow. Yeah, I was a tailor. And on set, like I worked mostly on sets, like I did photo shoots, I did campaigns, I did e-commerce, and I did fashion shows. So a lot of times they would always keep hair, makeup, and wardrobe, me wardrobe, in the same place. And I would look at the beauty transformations and I would think, oh that's really cool you know yeah industry started to change and um I started getting replaced by a pin or a clip you know what I mean so instead of paying a professional tailor to do the alteration on set they just started clipping it in the front taking the picture from the back clipping in the back taking a picture from the front instead of doing a professional you know alteration work started to get a little bit um tricky and then I started having to take jobs that I didn't necessarily want it to take and I needed an outlet like I just needed a hobby so I figured okay you know I always thought hair and makeup was really cool like let me just start doing some test shoots for fun and at the very least I thought at least I'd be able to do my makeup really well and it changed into a completely a complete career change like I never saw this coming I was just doing this for fun yeah that's really cool I feel like the best things start that way you know like you're just getting into it you're just playing around and then eventually you get to a point where you're like, I'm really freaking good at this.

2:50When people told me that I was doing good, I thought that they were giving me false confidence. Like, you know, when you see a little kid's crappy drawing and you say it's beautiful, even though it looks like, you know? So I thought people were just telling me it was good to be kind, you know? So it took me a while to believe that I was actually good. I feel like I always look at TikTok and Instagram, and you know when, like, Instagram makeup blew up and everybody was talking about, like, all these looks that these influencers were showing, and it was just kind of like, ah, you know, like I can't do that I can't do the 18 different colors on my eyelid and make it look normal absolutely you know and so like it was crazy because I remember back in the day watching like influencers and just being like I don't feel like I even belong as a consumer I would look and be like I don't feel like I can even keep up with this you know and even if I liked what they were doing it was like I I don't know like it just kind of scared me a little bit right as like a normal person trying to get my makeup done and and making sure that I look my best even if it is like something like you're going out with your girlfriends you're you're trying to get that glammed up look it was just a very like unachievable thing and that always kind of turned me off about that but I want to get your take on that you know how do you feel like like what do you feel in terms of like how people approach makeup and in general ability to actually bring the best of their own features out well I I actually love the way that people approach makeup now because it's fun.

4:16It's not about you're doing things right and you're doing things wrong. It's just about experimenting with your face and then seeing what it is you like and what it is you don't like and what it is that makes you feel good. So I love to see girls actually having fun with their makeup now because when I first started makeup was so serious. And as you talked about the influencers, there was a time when there was a divide between professional artists and influencers. We hated them for a very long time. I feel differently now, but for a very long time, we didn't like it because that sort of makeup wasn't the makeup that we did.

4:50And when clients would request it, we would be like, I'm not going to do this. It's changed the attitude towards makeup over the years. And I love that everybody's getting involved, even like kids. You see 12-year-olds that are better makeup artists than me. And you see like older women that aren't afraid to put makeup on anymore, not thinking that makeup's going to age them. So I love it. there's really interesting what you said where there was there was this divide and I remember you know even from my side right as a consumer I was looking and I would watch the professional makeup artists and it was always just like oh that's so beautiful you know and it was always like almost unattainable also because it was you know you're watching somebody with such a refined hand doing this so when they're doing a cat eye when you guys do a cat eye it's like seamless like beautiful it comes off like like nothing you know effortlessly and then you do it yourself and you're like oh my god I look like I belong in like ancient Egypt and you know it just looks terrible I mean I think there's this whole cultural thing that happened at some point where we brought over you know speaking of the Instagram thing we brought over this like more I guess I don't know like I guess the Instagram not Instagram look like as it was but we brought over like this idea what people perceive glam makeup should be and we brought it over to our more professional side So did you, do you feel like that?

6:06Do you feel like there was a cultural shift that happened where there was a more so like an integration? I do. And me personally, everybody will think it happened at a different time. Me, I feel like it happened more so when Euphoria came out. Because Euphoria, it showed fun editorial makeup, but it was applied expertly by artists. So it was like the blending of the two worlds where the makeup artist could see, okay, like I can incorporate some of this into what I do without it looking. like the makeup that we just didn't want to do and we had no interest in doing there was kind of a refinement to it and I'm sure um on influencer side it was the same thing like oh this is fun makeup but wow there's actually some technique that I can apply to it to make it look a little bit more refined so for me that's when it started to happen that's when I kind of opened up my eyes to makeup as well when euphoria happened I was like oh this is like really interesting makeup but it doesn't look you know that's interesting you said that though I mean I feel like that's yeah like I definitely I think for for me even going into like for example Mac like I was obsessed with Mac growing up you know I'd go into every Mac store no matter where I was and I'd always try to find um you know they had all sorts of stuff they had like the glitters and they had the eyeshadows and and the crazy colors right there was like I remember once I saw a purple shade and I was like I'm never going to use this but I'm going to buy it anyways because why the hell not like there's always a curiosity for that more bolder I guess you could say look that we do often see on social media but it's I think it's that translation that everyone gets caught up in did see the fashion side right I mean having a tailoring background it's actually amazing that you have that because one of my biggest questions is how people match their looks like their fashion with their makeup what are your thoughts on that it's just so subjective because it's the same way makeup and fashion they're both so personal um but like you know you can kind of adapt if you have more like of a classic silhouette you might want to go for like softer more classic makeup and just have maybe one or two elements of a pop whether it's a pop of color on the lip whether it's a pop of color on the eyeliner whether it's a nice cat eye um so you kind of want to you kind of want to just evaluate where you're at but like there are no rules to it because i've seen people wear some really elegant stuff with some really out there makeup but um yeah it's from my my general rule is if you have a more classic more laid-back look you might want to incorporate one or two fun elements and if you have something that's really really fun you might want to go crazy with the makeup lots of color lots of shapes just go ham it's interesting because i always wonder like you know how they always tell you like you match your shoes with your purse or like you match your accessories like there's like this unspoken rule about these things so like in terms of makeup like what is your take on that concept in terms of our makeup should we treat it more like an accessory I think the makeup shouldn't be the accessory I think makeup should be part of the outfit if you ask me it all goes together so I wouldn't I wouldn't look at makeup as an accessory I would look at it as an extension of the outfit because it can really pull everything together.

9:27One of the jokes I always make with my friends is I got to kill it with the face because the outfit's going to be basic because I wear black all the time. Like I'm always wearing black stuff and it's hard to make black look special. But I really pull it in by like trying to do really fun stuff with my makeup. I don't know. As far as rules go, it's another thing. It's subjective because makeup is so personal. There used to be a rule, like when I first started, where they would say, never match your eyeshadow to your outfit or your gown. And now that's what everybody does. Everybody matches the eyeshadow to the gown.

10:01You know what I mean? I would just go with what makes you feel good and what makes you feel beautiful. That's what I always tell my clients. Because you have to have the swag for it. There are certain things that some people can wear that I can't wear, vice versa, because you have to feel it. You have to believe it. You have to love it. You have to have the swag for it. And it has to make you feel good because the beauty comes from within. I used to be the girl that was wearing a sweatshirt and jeans at all times. And then I had a full face of makeup on. And all my friends were like, what's wrong with you?

10:29Like, you look like you're ready to go out. And are you wearing, yeah. So, I mean, I think a lot of, you know, especially young women, I feel like they can relate to that. Because who has time to, like, constantly dress up? You know, I didn't in college. But you know what? It applies the same logic as I did. like hey the outfit's gonna be basic but the makeup's gonna slay you know right right yeah no exactly I think so I think that's pretty cool to to be able to do that and in terms of that um one of the biggest I remember for me one of the biggest hurdles was like getting that really flawless look with especially something like my foundation now you've really seen it you know in terms of like all angles like where you know the professional side obviously but then also trying to bring that the you know the real side right so what is some what is the technique like that maybe you could share with us where it can really make foundation look absolutely gorgeous okay so i have two rules for foundation my first rule is that i like to build it right so i don't start with a lot like how you see um i'm not gonna name names but you see some people add a ton of foundation and blend it out to make it look softer i think that's just way too much work and it's counterproductive.

11:39So what I like to do is I like to start with a little bit, blend, put a little bit more, blend, and then add as you go until you get the amount of coverage that you need. So that's my first rule. You start with a little bit and then you build up slowly to get the coverage that you need. And that way you can ensure that as you blend, it still looks like skin. And my second rule is that I like to keep the perimeter of the face a different color than the middle so I will use a different foundation color not concealer I'll use a different foundation color in the middle of the face than I do on the rest of the face so that you naturally have the brightness cone in the middle of the face that's where the eye is directed and then it fades out and then if you want to do the brightening under the eye but I find a lot of times if you do that technique you don't need concealer yeah that makes it actually that's interesting because I feel like for a long time people were doing that whole three shades like lighter than your skin tones concealer and like I remember trying that and I felt like a ghost like I was like this is not working for me I use um foundation and concealer interchangeably even for myself like um a lot of times I use concealer as foundation okay I I don't I don't let the name of what the product is like I I judge it by performance so if the concealer performs well enough to be a foundation for me that's what I'll use.

12:58I'm very minimal in the amount of product that I use because I don't like to carry around a lot of stuff and I like my makeup to be fast and that's something I'm known for in the industry as well. I'm pretty quick. I can get a face done in minimal time. Oh well yeah I hope maybe like some of that will rub off on me after a conversation because I take forever on my makeup. I'm like that girl takes two hours and I'm still working on my eyeshadow. Because you don't need as much stuff as you think you need. I'm telling you if you use half of the stuff that you use and you just like take your time with it you'll notice wow I got a very similar result with half the product and once I started noticing that that's when I started to scale back interesting I mean I think that also um one thing I'm curious about and I'd love to get your take on this is like the use of powder how should we really be using like powder and is there a real difference between the different kinds of powder because you always see setting powder but I'm just always curious, are there different powders that we should be aware of?

13:58I mean, it depends on what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to make your makeup last all day, then you definitely want to use a setting powder. A lot of times you can layer powder. So you can do a setting powder and then you can do a blurring powder on top of that. What I like to do sometimes is one of my secrets, especially if when you use a powder, it kind of like enhances your lines. I'll put product on top of it, whether it's some sort of a balm, whether it's some sort of concealer, something a little more emollient, just to add some moisture back to the face so that it doesn't look so dry.

14:31But powder is necessary if you want your makeup to last all day. But a confession for me on an everyday basis, I do not use powder every day. When I'm going out at night, yeah, I'll use it. But like on a day to day basis, I'll just do my makeup. And if I need to spot reapply anywhere, I'll do it because like, I just, I don't like to be bothered with a whole lot of products on myself, but on my clients, especially when I'm trying to lock it in, you do need powder. Interesting. Okay, cool. So we don't all need powder. That's the takeaway here. We don't need to be slathering ourselves. You don't need to slather yourself in like, I'm not a fan of baking.

15:04And a lot of people disagree with me. I see it all over TikTok. They bake and then they put more powder on top of that and it looks beautiful i don't do that um i'm not a big fan of baking because i don't like the way that it looks in real life so not everybody needs powder sometimes you can get away with mallie roncal she makes a really great product called poreless face defender and it's the alternative to powder so it's just like this clear i don't even know what to call it because it's like a jelly kind of like a bomb like a bomb yeah it's like a jelly kind of it's in a compact and then what it does it absorbs the oil and it keeps your face matte and you can keep reapplying it throughout the day so if you're a girly who doesn't like powder that face defender i think it's one of malli beauty's best-selling products when i discovered that it totally changed my game not everybody needs it but if you do want your makeup to last all day right you do you do need to use a powder and it'd be nice if you use a setting spray as well cool so i want to get that actually i'm gonna end up buying it's really really good it's i learned about that years ago when i used to assist and i was like holy crap whenever i do editorials because the person i assisted he did not like powder but he didn't want the model to look like a you know a shiny greasy mess either so it did a really good job at letting the skin shine and do its thing without making you look oily that's that's solid I need to get that because I feel like I'm just not the like especially as I'm aging like I'm in my late 30s right now and I feel like whatever I put on my face it's kind of what you were saying earlier where you're like you know sometimes I just do concealer and that's it I'm feeling like that the more and more as I age because obviously you know as you know like our skin gets drier as you age start noticing things a lot more especially with fine lines I find that foundation now for me is more like it becomes a curse almost sometimes because it's like it looks great when you apply it on but then through the day like making sure it's not settling into lines and then having to adjust yeah it's just like a hassle yeah the less product that you use the less probability there is of it settling in the lines there's also another foundation that I really love that's great for that um it's called face Satalia.

17:22Have you ever heard of it? Yeah. I can't. Yeah. I'd tell you more about it though. I've only heard about it. Yeah. Face Satalia. I love Debbie. She's amazing. Um, and she was a lawyer, right? So like beauty was not her thing, but she had a trouble as a woman who was in her forties finding foundation that didn't settle into her lines. So she created one. And it's one of my favorite foundations that I use on women. Um, it, it, it tends to like sit above and if you, And it's so pigmented that you don't need a lot, which is also very helpful because very little product. And it doesn't like just set in your lines increase all day.

17:58It's really pretty foundation. You're like giving me a shopping list. I love this. Like I need to get everything. Yes. But as far as powders that don't make you look, don't, don't make your, don't enhance your lines. I love the Kosas blurring, those baked powders that Kosas makes. Yes. Amazing. I use that all the time. That's my go-to. I think I used them once I really I remember really loving I like closest in general I feel like it's a great brand but I know exactly what you're talking about I used it I think once or twice and I fell in love with it talk about the new trends because I know that spring 2025 is here and like there's obviously spring always brings with it new beauty trends what are some things that you see I'm in love with the Ardell pre-mat lash extensions I'm in love with them so you may I may not know that I was the lead makeup artist for the Alice and Olivia New York Fashion Week presentation.

18:50So, you know. Oh, that's so cool. Congratulations. That's amazing. Thank you. And Ardell was actually one of our sponsors. And I love Ardell lashes. I've always used them. I use the naked lashes all the time. But I had never heard of the pre-mapped extensions because they were new. And what they do is they cut them up into four. Right. So instead of it just being one continuous lash, it's four lashes. and then you can use as many or as little as you want. So if you just want to use a couple in the corner, you can do that. If you want to use all four of them, you can do that. And it takes the guesswork out.

19:24It's super easy to apply. They look really, really natural and they're just less intimidating because a lot of women are like, I don't know how to put on a lash. I can't put on a lash. I don't know how to do this. So it kind of takes the guesswork. They're just little baby strips and you put them on little by little. But I love that you can use the whole thing or you can use just a few and then get the look that you want. Got it. Add to cart. Okay. Got it. Yeah. I got to get that. No, I know exactly what you mean though with the whole, I like that they're cut up because for me, lashes were such a huge, huge problem because I would see these beautiful eye looks and people had these gorgeous lashes.

20:00And every time I would try them, it was like I look like a clown because it was just too much. And so for me, especially somebody like me, I think I would benefit a lot from that because just to be able to add a little bit, you know, like some dimension there. So you feel like you're doing something, but you're not like over the top where it's a full, you know, row of lash. And then you have to figure out how to shape it and like get it there. With my clients, a lot of them used to ask me to, oh, can you just like put it in the corner? So I would end up cutting the lashes anyway. So the fact that it came pre-cut like this, it's amazing.

20:33And, you know, it's created by artists for artists. I guess they knew that that was something that a lot of our clients were looking for. And it's just incredible. I love them. So what are your what are your personal like spring trends that you're really like kind of, you know, bringing to the table when you're doing, you know, anything? Maybe it's like, you know, a professional event or even like a recommendation to a friend. What are some things that you love? First of all, I'm going to go back to the lash because I feel like no look is complete without a lash. Whenever my clients are like, oh, just give me some mascara.

21:04I'm always like, absolutely not. Unless it's like a teenager or something. I'm like, absolutely not. Like we need some lashes to bring it on home. But I love that pops of color. I saw like watercolor is huge now. So I'm seeing all of these luscious blues and oranges and yellows. And I love that because I love like a nice bright statement eyes. Because when you have an eye like that, you don't really need much else. Like you can just have an eye like that and just a little concealer and just clear gloss or lip balm or whatever, and you're already slaying. So that was a fun trend. I like that we're getting back to actually applying makeup with technique.

21:43So they're bringing back a lot of the 90s looks, like a lot of the 90s eyes. Yes! You saw that, right? I love it. Yeah, yeah. I'm a millennial, man. I grew up in the 90s. I love seeing that. Yeah. Yeah, same. I'm what they call a Xenial. So I'm on the cusp. Oh, love that. Love that. Yeah. So you know. you know the early 80s um so yeah I I love that we're back to the the the creases and like the sculpting and then we're back to like the the shimmery colors I love that because remember when that was the thing for all those colors now they're bringing all that frosted makeup back oh and that 90s lip oh my god have you been seeing that the yeah with the liner and oh my god I love that look like I remember like doing that when I was younger and I was like this is the best makeup like the best lipstick look and honestly in my opinion i love it so much i saw that they're bringing it back oh absolutely we did a rendition of that for alice and olivia we did a a brown lipstick with um a brown lip liner with a red lipstick in the middle but my favorite way to do it is either like a brown with either a clear or just a light pink in the middle so like the line it's really the star show it's really prevalent kind of like a leah one in a million yes oh my god don't even talk to me about alia she was like my favorite like she was like my her eyebrows were ahead of her time yeah that's when everybody was plucking them and they were like super thin alia always had like a nice juicy sculpted brow like her eyebrows were always nice and full and perfectly arched absolutely and she always had like that natural makeup like her face was always like it looked very like i don't know what people now call natural makeup and i love that I love that and I love seeing that they're bringing the 90s back honestly because we had some really cool stuff like we had some like fun makeup and fun techniques and also like in terms of doing 90s makeup I mean I want to get your product recommendations so what is your favorite like liner right now for like getting that lip look that you're talking about oh gosh okay so there are three yeah so my knock down drag out you'll have to pry it out of my cold dead hands is citizen cosmetics i love it because it's the creamiest lip liner ever sometimes i'll put it on his lip liner and then i'll just like smear my lips a little bit and then the color looks so pretty as a lipstick i'll just throw gloss over and just won't even use it as a lip liner it's that creamy where you can use it as a lip liner as a lipstick but as a lip liner it's super gorgeous and it comes in a lot of colors.

24:15I love Bobby Brown Chocolate. That's another fun brown one. Oh, and the Citizens Cosmetics, I use the color Cinco. That's flattering on a lot of skin tones. Cinco's gorgeous. But yeah, I like the Bobby Brown and it's called Chocolate. That's a really pretty one. And Anastasia Beverly Hills. Oh my gosh, she makes, there are so many colors. Like I can't even just name one, but like I slept on Anastasia because you know, she is the brow girl. I was like, what do you know about lips? but yeah the Anastasia lip liners so many good ones they have like these liquid lipsticks but it's a different formula they're matte velvet so they're not dry this formula is super creamy it feels almost like a lip balm but it's super matte and it comes in a lot of great colors you know I really like it when I won't put it in my kit when I'm just like okay my client this is for me but you steal it yeah you're like yeah this is mine like for me even in college like my go-to lipstick was a liquid lip like I could not do normal lipsticks and I would do the whole like I would apply a normal lipstick on top to like top it off or something but like baseline it was always liquid lip like that's what I always went to so they're just such great products I love them I tried with the liquid lipsticks like I used to do the Anastasia ones and remember when Morphe used to have all those fun colors blue and purple and turquoise and everything and it was just so drying for me I couldn't do it I couldn't do it like at some point I would end up putting a gloss over my lips would physically hurt even if I put a bomb underneath it I could so you're better than me no I mean I honestly though I won't even lie the only reason I used like there was a Katwandi lipstick like color which I was shocked it was from Katwandi because she she never had colors I could use except for her lipsticks and her lipstick color um I think it was called got a lolita at the time lolita and it was like this pretty brownish peach mauve like i don't even know how to describe it but for brown girls like if you're in the medium shade range lolita was the color for nude but i just remember using it all the time so when you brought it up when you brought up liquid lip i was like yep i can get behind that i used to use them all the time yeah yeah the matte the matte totally the matte lipsticks are completely back i'm loving that I love that you gave us so many recommendations.

26:33I want to round out everything by getting your advice, because I know there's a lot of young women that tune in. And I want you to give like honest advice about, you know, getting into the industry, what it takes, because I feel like these days, no one talks about, you know, the hard work that it takes to get to like, you know, where you are and like, having to really, you know, go into it with specific mindset is what I'm trying to say. So what are your thoughts on that? Any words of wisdom that you could offer? Oh, girl, I do this all the time. And a lot of the girls, they don't like to hear my advice because it's not what they want to hear.

27:04But you have to be willing to work for free. And no one wants to hear that. And I get it. You know, things are expensive. Life is expensive. But when you're first starting off, you don't have a portfolio yet. You don't have clients yet. So you're just marketing yourself and you're trying to build your book and you're trying to build your portfolio. So when I tell people, especially the artists that are just starting out, like unless you work at a counter, I never went that route. I started off on set. I started off working on set, doing photo shoots. That's how I started. But like unless you work in a counter or something like that, then you're going to have to be prepared to do some free work.

27:44And no, nobody wants to hear that. But it is true. I needed to build my book. thankfully I found somebody in the beginning of my career who kept it real with me because a lot of people were just you know giving me these unrealistic expectations and someone said look you need to be prepared to work for free for about two years I was just like oh okay um and I accepted it because I really wanted it thank god for me I started getting paid after like 10 months but that's what it is you're building your career you're you're building your name and you have to be willing to do things if there's not a price tag attached to it.

28:21I love that. I love that you're keeping it real with that advice because every industry is like this. I mean, I'm in medicine and I remember our attendings used to take advantage of us as residents. We were working 80 hour weeks, you know what I mean? And you're getting paid like pennies, even at that stage, but especially in any industry, you have to make a name for yourself. You have to. And I feel like Gen Z right now. I love Gen Z. I really do. But there are so many people that I see that are like, well, I need a job. And I'm like, honey, you need experience is what you need. You need to go get some experience because you're not going to get a job.

28:57No employer is going to hire you, you know, with no experience. You have nothing to offer. I don't want to hear it. Or sometimes I get pushback. Oh, I'm not going to let this industry use me. I'm like, okay, hey, you know, you know better than I've only been doing this for 13 years. So you know better than I do. do what you need to do they all think well not all i'm gonna be fair a lot of them think that they can just become an influencer and start making money like that or they can just become a youtuber and start making money like that and even the top youtubers and the top influencers will tell you in the beginning they made no money you know they were building their audience they were building their community and then the money came so you need to have a side hustle when i first started, I was tailoring, I was bartending, and I was doing test shoots.

29:43And then eventually, I was able to stop tailoring. And I was just bartending and doing shoots. And then eventually, I was just able to just sustain myself off of doing makeup. But it was a transition. It took a while. Yeah, yeah. And you worked hard. And that's the bottom line is like, hard work. I feel like now, no one preaches that anymore, where no one's like sitting down and saying to these kids, like, listen I know you have dreams and that's beautiful but you need to work hard like you gotta put in the hours you gotta put in the time like it's there's no shortcut to any of this so yeah I love what you said and I couldn't agree with you more and I hope someone listening out there if you're wanting to go into artistry and you really want to make something of it and you want to be behind the scenes in New York Fashion Week you want to be doing these big gigs like I really hope you take you know T's advice to heart and really listen because it's very very important but thank Thank you, T, so much.
