Is it better to take the evening classes?
What are you doing now?


I took the Journeyman program during the day from 8-5. Most days you're there from 8-5. There were days when we left early, and days we stayed late.

Beauty wasn't really intense. It's basic, but it helped a lot with technique. Character was more intense. A lot more information and steps to learn.

Right now I'm applying all over for counter jobs, and tomorrow i'm doing a zombie movie. Trying too find some jobs with money involved.

Empire Beauty School formerly The Learning Insitute of Beauty Sciences has a makeup school it's about 400 hours for each of the three programs ( Beauty & Glamour, character, Advanced character) the cost per program is roughly $3000 including the price of your kit and the enrollment fees.

there is also lia schor (idk if that's the right spelling), joe blasco should be opening up in ny soon, last looks makeup academy. Those are the ones I know off the top of my head. Honestly i think MUD is amazing and empire has this teacher Orlando who really is an incredible artist but they are all pretty much going to get the same thing from all of them.

Ok this whole thread has just totally confirmed it for me. I sent off for an information pack the other day (should be here in a few weeks), I have ALWAYS (ever since I was about 6 - my mum has no idea where I got the dream from) wanted to live in New York (and it is going to happen one day, I can't see myself living in England in my late 20s! And I really want to go to MUD! It's going to be a lot of money but everything I've read on here has just made me more excited about it! I'm going to start saving up! If I can't go next year I am DEFINITELY going in 2010! It would just be so cool to live in NY for a while not only to see if it lives up to my dream but because I would be going to an amazing make up school - sure I could go to one over here (there's a really really good one where I live) but I'd rather pay an extra £3000 on top of my course fees to live and shop over there for a month or two! Aim of this year: SAVE UP LOTS OF MONEY! No idea how.. maybe I should hold a big event next year and get all my family and friends to donate or something hahaha!

Hi I was wondering if someone can offer some helpful advice in receiving makeup training. I live in nyc and I have attended a beginners course, where I learned the BASIC application of makeup. This class taught us about different brushes, how to prepare the face, eyebrows and foundation. But in terms of greater detail such as color correction, highlight, contour, eye shadow application, day and bridal makeup - nothing. And I felt that I need to learn the appropriate technique. Has anyone attended MUD in nyc? The Makeup/Beauty course? Its pretty costly but I want to make sure I make the right decision. Which one is better for learning makeup...MUD or Empire Beauty? Please let me know. Thanks!!

*I thought it would be easy to find a Great makeup course in New York City but I have to say its been quite a challenge.
