You\u2019ve done your friends\u2019 makeup before. There\u2019s no need to undergo education learning about different skin types, how to properly blend, different makeup for different occasions, day-night look, or color theory. You probably already know everything there is to know about makeup, so why bother trying to formally educate yourself?\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_listen_to_what_your_client_wants\"><\/span>Don&#8217;t listen to what your client wants<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nYou are the makeup artist and these people are coming to you for advice, so why bother getting their opinion? So what if it\u2019s their face? Who cares what they\u2019re allergic to? You have a look, no, \u201cTHE\u201d look in mind for this client and they are going to get it! You\u2019re sure they will love it even though they\u2019ve given you a basic description of their preferences and it is nothing like the look you\u2019ve envisioned. Instead of talking it over with your client, merely nod and start applying the makeup the way YOU want it.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wear_whatever_you_want_when_meeting_clients\"><\/span>Wear whatever you want when meeting clients<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nYou\u2019re meeting these people in-person. They\u2019ve obviously already done their research about you and they know what you\u2019re all about, which is why they are meeting with you. No need to impress them once you\u2019ve already scored a meeting, right? What\u2019s the harm in wearing your old, worn pyjamas? Or the baggy t-shirt with a slight rip? Bonus points for stains and holes in uncomfortable places.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_unhygienic_and_unsanitary\"><\/span>Be unhygienic and unsanitary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nThe clients found you, and you\u2019re sure that once they meet you, they\u2019ll be even more excited to work with you. If they\u2019re coming to your house, they have to respect that it is your domain. Those dirty dishes in the sink? That\u2019s a part of life! Cat barf on the carpet? Everyone vomits sometimes. A stack of liquor bottles in the corner? They\u2019ll respect you for knowing how to have a good time! Also, don\u2019t bother cleaning your brushes between clients. Who gets the plague anymore, anyway? What\u2019s the worst that could happen? Save yourself the time and skip that cumbersome step.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Charge_double_the_industry_standard_in_your_area\"><\/span>Charge double the industry standard in your area<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nFind out what other makeup artists are charging in your area and then charge double the price for the same services that they are offering. This will set you apart as the upscale and more prestigious makeup artist and people will flock to you in droves to receive your \u201cluxury\u201d treatments. Don\u2019t worry about being competitive. The word will get out that you are, without question, the best at what you do, so naturally people will want to come to you for your services.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dont_bother_with_a_website\"><\/span>Don\u2019t bother with a website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nNot having a website makes you edgy and gives off a \u201chipster\u201d vibe. In fact, do your best to be totally off the grid in terms of the digital world. Once people hear what you can do, you won&#8217;t even have to advertise. Don\u2019t bother showcasing your portfolio or your business online; this is just a waste of time and money. If people want to talk to you, they can pick up the phone book like any other civilized individual circa 1999.\n<p><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Plagiarize_other_peoples_work\"><\/span>Plagiarize other people\u2019s work<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\nLastly, feel free to steal images from other makeup artists and pass them of as your own \u201cportfolio\u201d images. Nobody is going to find out, especially if you\u2019re not online. Nevermind that the fierce SFX lion you were trying to create looks more like a deformed wombat. It\u2019s art, right? Other makeup artists haven\u2019t worked as hard as you to get where they are, so it\u2019s okay to steal their work and say it\u2019s yours. It\u2019ll really expand your portfolio!\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"cta\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_all_seriousness_find_out_the_REAL_practices_of_a_great_makeup_artist%E2%80%94and_stick_to_them\"><\/span>In all seriousness, find out the REAL practices of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcmakeupacademy.com\/2015\/07\/part-2-what-i-wish-everyone-knew-when-starting-a-career-as-a-makeup-artist\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">great makeup artist<\/a>\u2014and stick to them!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you want to be a horrible makeup artist, follow this list of foolproof tactics to rightly earn your title.
