everyone wants to do that...so you won't start out as a makeup artist for models in new york.





Try starting out smaller. Go to a makeup stand, like MAC or Dior and ask how you would go about applying for their job.





I was at the MAC stand getting a makeover and was talking to the artist, I mentioned, ';you've got the coolest job ever. I'd love to work here';...she replied, ';you'd think. The novelty factor wears off pretty quick and you stop enjoying it after a while';. MAC has classes that you take with them...





Once you've worked for a reputable company you can move up if you have skill, then your dream might come true.How would i go about getting a job as a makeup artist for models in new york?
