[KL70]

If you had to work in the cosmetic or beauty retail field, what would be your idea of working in the ultimate job and please say why.

If you already do work in the field, then elaborate on your dream job.

 

[kattybadatty]

retail? well, there are only SO many titles and positions in the retail world. right now, working as a mua and sales associate at mac, my "dream" job would be to be a beauty editor for a fashion magazine. i love writing, love beauty and the fashion industry... but i know it is a LOT of work and you can be working 15 hr days when working for a magazine.... but that would be cool, also moving up in MAC and maybe doing some corporate work, possibly marketing. those are my aspirations! eep!

 

[GlossyAbby]

I wish I could leave my corporate job and just work at a mac counter... I would love my job and actually not have to force my self to work daily!

 

[chocolategoddes]

I'd absolutely love to be a permanent MUA at a MAC pro store or even become a senior artist. Now that would be pretty sweet...

but I have to be a doctor instead, Meh

 

[M.A.C. head.]

I would be behind the scenes actually producing the products.

I would love to have my own make up line and be totally hands on with production, promotion, distribution, etc.

 

[aziajs]

I'd like to work in product development or as a trainer.

 

[darkwater_soul]

Ditto. I am actually in the process of becoming a trainer with Sephora, and it's what I have wanted to do for years now.

 

[lara]

I'd like to move in store operations management or into inventory/stock controlling.

I'm a Type C/logic driven person; I'm more or less born to drive a desk.

 

[Kuuipo]

I'd have my own line of science based products that actually do something to improve the wearer....
(Fusion Beauty beat me to it.....)

 

[boudoirblonde]

Marketing for a cosmetics company would be my absolute DREAM job.
Im taking every step I can to get it

 

[kobri]

I'm working on becoming a cosmetics buyer (and not just for my own stash). I think it would be an awesome job

 

[DirtyPlum]

I would love to either be a Celebrity MUA or freelance for top magazines and TV shows!

I'm really gonna work on the latter...

 

[Beautyeditor!]

I would love to be a beauty editor for a magazine as well...and own my own cosmetic line

 

[MissMarley]

Realistically, I would love to be a trainer; in my dream world with the ability to travel constantly, I'd like to do makeup for magazines and runway in every city in the world

 

[Gblue]

I'd love to be a trainer for the brand I'm currently with.
OR I'd like to be a proper trained nose for perfumes. I'm quite 'good' with getting fragrances for people just based on what they like already and knowing where else to look. I'd love to have that extraordinary sense of smell so I could be a perfumer. Alas..;(

 

[CaseyKezerian]

I would want to be a makeup artist at runway shows.

[Sikfrmthemirror]

Retail! I think im born to sell make up. I just like helping people find something that works for them you know. and then give them some tricks for the trade on how to apply and enhance. I like knowing alot so I have answers to all questions haha. Thats why I love this site, it helps alot.
