Well actually, I want to do marketing for a cosmetics company, and being a MA is basically one of the first steps right?

I still managed to make some sales, and match foundations and stuff
So far I love it, and I figure it can only get better! I did have one snooty customer, but she wasnt too bad. I cant wait to go to Dior training!

No one needs to take a class to become a make up artist, there is no certifications needed to start as one, you can be self taught and get just as far. people are asking outrageous prices to teach you the basics you can learn on your own. and all you get is a piece of paper telling everyone you know the basics or you took "glamour" classes.... go on youtube and watch tutorials...
UNLESS, however, you're like me... I'm going to pay to become a LISCENED Esthetician, which you need to take a 600-hour course, and after that, you can step into many different careers, as well as being paid more working for a cos. Company than someone who paid to learn the basics of eye shadow blending.
I freelance for MAC, and I'm self taught.

Oh, and with the diploma there is HEAPS on SPX and theatrical, which, urgh, just isnt for me |

And, some people dont want to teach themselves, some people do want to go and learn about different face shapes, eye shapes, lip shapes, concealing techniques, skin tones, colour theory and so on.
