How to Become the Best Makeup Artist
A qualification in cosmetology and relevant experience are a prerequisite for a career as a makeup artist. While work in the salon industry is relatively stable and predicted to grow by 14% in the coming years, jobs in the cosmetics and department store industries are incredibly competitive and require extensive experience. A job at a department store makeup counter or on a student film production will give you valuable experience and build your portfolio. However, you must be smart about your career choice.
