But here's another great thing about makeup counters: you don't have to do any of the business stuff that you'll have to do as a professional makeup artist, such as finding clients, scheduling meetings, etc. You just sit there, and people come to you.
To be successful in this occupation, you will need to be a skilled and licensed cosmetologist. Basic knowledge of the dramatic arts, film technique, stagecraft, and anatomy and physiology can increase your skill set as a makeup artist and can be obtained in high school or on the job. You can enroll in few types of post-secondary programs to obtain the education required of a makeup artist.
