First things first, make-up is not a bunch of feathers and butter- flies on eye lashes. Please stoppppppppppppp. The make-up profession is an art form. As an artist you learn something new every day. THERE IS NOT JUST ONE WAY TO APPLY M-U. As an artist you take the fundamentals and apply them to your style and you make it work.  This art was meant to be creative and clean, there is a difference in clean work and shit thats all over the place.

If you want to learn the art beware of schools charging 13,000 for a months worth of training that you can learn in a week.
If this industry is something you want to get into may it be hair, make up, wardrobe, photography, modeling your going to need to get behind someone for some tutelage. I was online reading one schools curriculum and the fee for tuition was 9,000 and 5,000 for your kit and you should have seen the work they were putting out utterly ridiculous.  That's when I decided years ago to teach the class for FREE and all you pay for is your pro kits, food and class space.
Not a fake kit, or kit that you can only use for the class a real get your butt out there and get paid kit.....
I figured the more professional minded artists that I taught the more professional this industry would be.
If you are a veteran in your field you should do the same, give back and teach people how to be professional and take this business serious.
