Make up courses

    Hi,

    I am considering pursuing a career in make up artistry and at the moment I am looking at doing a short course to get a taste for it to make sure I like it before I fully commit to doing a full time course as all the courses seem to be very expensive.

    I found this 4wk course in makeup fabilicious and I was just wondering if anyone on here has done this course and can tell me what it's like. Or if you have any other information or tips regarding make up courses it would be much appreciated.

    I have already done a 1 day workshop but it didn't really give me much of an insight to it so that's why I am looking to do a short course in it instead

    Hi Kookie,

    I'm thinking along the same lines myself. I have looked into a few courses. Make up Forever seem to have a nice 4-6 week one which is kind of like a beginner course. It means you can progress onto higher qualifications with them over time. However, it's pricey and I have emailed them about the course to which I got no response. That disappointed me a bit.

    I also checked Makeupfabilicious and have heard they are excellent but was stunned by the price of their introductory courses. Such a real shame they are that pricey. I know it is worth it in the long run but it's such a big amount to pay up front if you don't even know what the course is like. Also, I did see that you have to pay for exams with them separately so there is a nice bit of money involved. They are supposed to be excellent though. I SO wish I had the money to do it. I have a friend who got into it by simply working on make up counters in Debenhams with no previous experience. Over the years she got more and more experience but never got an actual qualification. It seems the bar has been raised a bit in the make up industry. Good luck with it all. If you do go for it, let me know how it goes. It would be such good fun!! :D
