Calling all Make-Up Artists!

Here at thebeautyobsession, we believe in practicing what we preach. As a lot of what we talk about revolves around makeup, we know that no matter how good the product, it’s only going to look its best when it is applied properly.

That is why we are looking into makeup courses, so we’ll be able to show our lovely readers the proper techniques, not just the products!

Something we’ve found since looking into this, is that there is a huge number of courses out there claiming to help you and we’d really like to hear your thoughts on the best way to go about finding the right course. We’re going to write a piece on our experience to help other budding MUA’s and would really appreciate any insight you could give us into your experiences.

Some of the questions we want to cover include;

• Does it make a difference if you study part-time or full-time?
• Does professional certification count out in the real world?
• If so which ones do you think hold their own in the industry?
• Would you recommend going to a specialist makeup school or attending a course at a technical college that does beauty & makeup courses etc?
• Which schools would you recommend and why?

We’d really appreciate your input on this piece and would be happy to quote and credit any advice to you. Please either comment below or email us at thebeautyobsession@gmail.com

Thanks for reading!
