i had posted earlier asking what sephoras pay was but no one answered so i guess i will ask again..

and want to know where the best place to start as a makeup artist is and i want the pay to be pretty good too.

it depends on your position, your experience, your region, etc.

hm well i live in MA - i asked someone around here but in another state and she said she got paid 14 dollars in RI at sephora but i asked someone else and they said sephora only pays 9.50 - 12.50 for retail.

Generally speaking people aren't encouraged to share salary/pay info.

yes i understand that but i was just asking for the ballpark range not how much someone specifically gets paid as an individual.

i just wanted to know so i know where i should apply.

thanks i live in MA, maybe ill try applying to some counters instead, that doesnt seem like too much - thats less than im making now.

i was offered a counter manager position at prescriptives in a nordstrom in my area and they offered me far less than my mac ma rate...

in general the counter and sephora are going to be in the same ballpark range
