    I'm Sophy. First and foremost I'm a very talented makeup artist, enjoying all aspects of the field. Beyond that I can do just about anything! Anything girly, that is. I mean, I'll dig holes and set fire to things when I have to, but I'd rather be immersed in making costumes or setting someone's hair in rollers. I'm not worried about being a tall poppy - I'm happy to acknowledge that I'm good at many things!
