COMMON MISTAKES FOR MAKEUP ARTISTS RESUMES

Successful makeup artist careers are built on diversity and flexibility. One of the biggest mistakes you can make with your resume is focusing too closely on a single type of makeup application. It looks much better when you can highlight a broad range of accomplishments. Don't limit yourself to listing your experience with brides if you've also worked on theatrical productions and modelling shoots. Each venue requires a different set of skills, and those skills show that you're capable of working with many different types of faces and styles.

While your makeup artist resume is an important tool for landing a job, this is one career that requires you to include other items as well. A well-rounded portfolio is invaluable for a makeup artist. If you're not collecting photos of your work, you're making a big mistake. Ideally, you'll collect samples of your makeup artistry to showcase your developing skills. If you don't already have some photos, consider hiring a photographer and a model or two to create a portfolio now. There are many skills in this field that simply don't translate well to words.

Our Diploma of Applied Makeup starts again July 17 2018. All students graduate with professional images to use in their portfolio. Email study@tafmua.com.au for a course guide or ENROL ONLINE to reserve your place.
