4-Day Course: Essentials for the Freelance Makeup Artist

This makeup course includes the essentials needed to work as a Freelance Makeup Artist from starting your business to marketing; from basic beauty makeup to contouring and highlighting; from building your makeup kit to building your portfolio. You will learn about career opportunities working as a professional freelance makeup artist in Atlanta, basic business principles, etc...

This course is great for all makeup artists including cosmetologists and aestheticians that just need a refresher on makeup as well as brand new makeup artists looking to get their business as a freelance makeup artist started without spending the nine months in the Cosmetology or Aesthetics programs. The course covers the entire makeup chapter from those programs (chapter 19 in Milday's standard Esthetics or chapter 23 in Milday's standard Cosmetology text books) PLUS so much more on starting your business and money making skills!!

See curriculum outline below for more of the topics covered in this four day course.
