Be a Makeup Artist

Being a makeup artist earns you money while making women feel very good about themselves. We put on makeup everyday. So at least we know the basics, but I think with proper training & practice, our love for makeup can be channeled into a part time job to a profession and can help us earn as much as P 5,000 to P 10,000 per month.

STUDYING MAKEUP
There are beauty schools where we can learn to apply makeup and polish our skills. Here is the list of schools:

• Academy of Beauty & Arts (ABA) - P 18,000 basic makeup course for 2 months
• La Salle College International - P 12,500 for 7 Saturdays
• School of Fashion & the Arts (SOFA) - P15,000
• Center for Aesthetic Studies - P 18,200, 3 month course
• Samson College of Science & Technology - Advanced Cosmetology - P 7,782 2 months course
• Ricky Reyes Learning Institute - P 6,000

An alternative to beauty school would be to apprentice for a makeup artist. We can also get techniques from magazines , internet and books.
If we want to pursue to be a makeup artist, we will invest a little to buy the basic tools that we need (brushes, eyelash curler brush clutch, eye cream, moisturizer, make up primer, concealer, foundation, translucent loose powder, blush, eye shadow, eye liner, lip colors , lip gloss, mascara). But to save money, we can start by mixing high end products with more affordable ones.

Goodluck!
