Hi gals and guys. My name is Patrice and I'm a baby in the makeup game. So I just wanted to get some advice from your all about what I have to look forward to. Any advice is welcomed.

i'm in about the same boat and i'm looking for different ways to get started as far as getting hired in a makeup practice. right now i'm looking for places i can apply to that have makeup counters, but i'm not even sure if i should be doing that yet. i don't really have any experience or a portfolio to show. i'm looking forward to the assignments i will be assigned in this course to start working on that experience and portfolio, but could somebody tell me the primary steps to working my way up to getting hired as a makeup artist in some kind of assembly or some sort?
