She finished the look by applyingMakeup by Mario Ultra Suede Lipstick in Brielle, a mauve-pink hue.

CHRIS:When you were young, I used to practice on you.

You’d have these high-fashion looks.

At the age of six, you had blue extensions in.

KITTY-BLU:I was always that girl with my hair done and a full face of makeup.

I was like, “No!”

You always had a vision for makeup.

KITTY-BLU:Makeup was my hobby and passion.

It was my escape from school.

I hated math and English.

CHRIS:I can relate to that.

I was not that academic, but I was always very artistic.

I’m really happy that you could find your confidence with makeup [so young].

I don’t think I had that.

My confidence grew over time.

I knew you were stressed because…obviously!

CHRIS:We’re all human beings and we all feel nerves and we all feel fear.

But if you believe in what you’re doing and what you’re saying, it will just happen.

I’m so proud that you’ve really done the work.

And they booked you again!

So many people reach out to you.

KITTY-BLU:Social media has helped massively.

CHRIS:It can be a double-edged sword.

The world can be a scary place, [and so can] Los Angeles.

[But] it’s my job to help you see the world.

I like that you know what you want.

I know your makeup when I see it.

KITTY-BLU:I love a full beat very Kim Kardashian.

I think that comes from you.

CHRIS: It would be fun to do Kim together, wouldn’t it?

KITTY-BLU:Yeah, I’d love that.

But I also like having my own thing.

I want to be known as a makeup artist, not as Chris Appleton’s daughter.

CHRIS: You’re on your own journey.

I brought you to L.A., but the rest has been down to you.
