An MUA&#8217;s physical makeup portfolio contained tear sheets of any magazine publications of their work. It also contained high-quality printed images of their artistry in photoshoots. It wasn&#8217;t uncommon for a physical portfolio to have a section with business cards, too. This way, you could easily distribute them when you met with possible clients.\n\nIn today\u2019s age, however, physical portfolios are not the only thing that&#8217;s required. You also need to have an online presence! With the click of mouse, potential clients from all across the world can access and view your work. Online makeup portfolios can typically be seen on an MUA&#8217;s social media pages and\/or <a href=\"\/2020\/03\/3-amazing-makeup-portfolios-and-websites-to-look-up-to\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">business website<\/a>.\n\nWhile we absolutely urge you to post your original work on social media platforms, remember that having a professional business website is <em>always\u00a0<\/em>recommend!

This is because the shots you showcase will display varying styles and techniques you&#8217;ve mastered. Just keep in mind that showcasing <em>too <\/em>much variety can be a <a href=\"\/2021\/02\/what-not-to-do-in-your-editorial-makeup-portfolio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">recipe for disaster<\/a>. You never want to lose your identity! Similarly, you never want to mask a dominant style that best represents you.\n\nYour portfolio images should not confuse potential clients. When they look at your portfolio, they should quickly become aware of what distinguishes YOU from the competition. A makeup portfolio is one of the major factors that&#8217;ll draw in potential clients. Once drawn in, they&#8217;ll be more likely to book with you. In turn, they&#8217;ll likely share your work (and their positive experience with you) with people they know.\n\nThus, a solid makeup portfolio ensures that a chain of employment opportunities is created![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221;
