Over the years, Barbie has changed a lot of careers – in fact, that’s kind of her trademark. She has conquered the worlds of fashion, entrepreneurship, and even space exploration. But what if this multi-talented character were to venture into the world of permanent makeup?
We’ve decided to toy with the idea of a Barbie PMU artist and hopefully inspire you to Barbify your PMU salon!
