Become a Makeup Artist

Get Paid to Apply Makeup

Imagine having a fun, high-paying job that lets you use your creativity to make people look good. Welcome to the world of makeup artistry!

About a Career as a Makeup Artist

There are few jobs that offer so many benefits. As a makeup artist you will have the satisfaction of making your vision a reality.

A makeup artist is intimately involved in the most important and exciting events of people's lives, from weddings to the Academy Awards. Makeup artists get to work with celebrities such as models, actors, politicians, and musicians.

As a makeup artist you will have a rewarding job with flexible hours. If you start your own business as a freelance makeup artist you will enjoy the freedom of being your own boss. Top makeup artists get paid hundreds or thousands of dollars a day for their services. Plus you may get invitations to parties, admission to exclusive restaurants and clubs, or introductions to other celebrities you admire.

Professional makeup artists are more in demand than ever before. Here are just a few of the job opportunities for makeup artists. Which ones can you imagine yourself doing makeup for?

  • Advertisements
  • Magazines
  • Modeling agencies
  • Movies
  • Music videos
  • Runway shows
  • Salons and spas
  • Television
  • Theater

If you work with individuals, your clients might be people who need to look their best for a special occasion, such as an awards dinner, beauty pageant, prom night, or wedding. Or you might help cancer survivors look and feel better about themselves.

As long as you have the desire, you can become a professional makeup artist. You don't need years of specialized training to start out as a makeup artist in many jurisdictions. Unlike becoming a cosmetologist or esthetician which have strict requirements (such as hours worked, type of training, and a written test), in many locations you can become a makeup artist immediately.

        "I'm currently an English teacher in South Korea (returning to the States in a few months), so ordering a quick and simple ebook from FabJob.com prevented the hassles of having to order overseas. FabJob.com has given me the confidence to dive in, just like I've always wanted to, whereas before I felt shaky and without a mentor. I'll always go through this ebook for future questions especially during my first year. Thanks!"

        — Dylan Robinson, Kingston Springs, TN

        "I purchased the e-book three years ago and I have since started my own company. The book has been my living guide especially in my first year of operation. In many ways, I could not have gone through the starting year without it. This year I am expanding my operation and I was panic stricken for a while to find out that I lost the e-book. I wrote to FabJob about it and in less than an hour I received another copy of it. Congratulations to FabJob! You have great books and your customer service is amazing."
        — Athanasia Nointin, Sabah, Malaysia

        — Katie Martinis, Silver Spring, MD

        "I just downloaded your manual (yesterday) and can’t tell you how helpful it’s been to me. I have had the most difficult time finding resources so stumbling upon your web-site was striking the lottery for me. I can apply just about every great tip to my own job search. Thank you so much for this valuable resource!"
        — Jennifer Minniti, Portland, Oregon

        "Before reading the guide I was curious about getting into the field, but after reading the guide I am CONFIDENT! This guide answered every question I had and provided information I would have never thought of. I am meeting with my business partner this week to lay the plans to our new business and I have FabJob to thank for gathering what I needed to know in one reference. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!"
