outside mainstream beauty college!

Well, you could try something like a special effects route. There are schools that teach that side of it. There is a good future in this career if you are passionate about it and are willing to live in an area like L.A., NYC, Paris, Miami, etc. (cool places, but expensive to live there). There are some mainstream schools that are good, that could give you a good basic beginning. I'm not sure what your skill level is right now - if you don't have a background in art/makeup, then you might want to start there.
Practice, practice, practice. Practice on friends - try to work on different skin tones and ages. Take pictures of your work to build your portfolio and to track your progress. Read any and all information about the trade -- Makup Artist Magazine is a good publication with lots of info.
Your career path is open to you -- if you are interested in this, then give it your all!

yes the can be a great future. You must go to school to get your cosmetology & estheticians license. You can start your own business/salon. Take care of clients skincare & cosmetics. You can intern at a cosmetic company, skin care manufacturer, you have to find them and you'd be surprised where they can be found. Good luck.

Who ever said you can't make money in the makeup industry.. baloney! I made bank for years in los angeles (industry) so if it's something you want.. work at it. Forget cosmetology school, waste of time and money. find a friend in the industry that could maybe get you started, it is tough but what isn't?

Go to school and get a real education. Cosmetology is a joke of a career and is geared toward stupid lazy girls.
