This is a great book for everyone from your neighborhood Mary Kay/Avon lady to the girl at the MAC counter to a runway worker in Milan. All the nuts and bolts of the BUSINESS are here--not just beauty tips. How to bill, create a portfolio, network to have faces to work on, do wedding groups, work on a movie set and even which and how to join the union. This book gave me a lot of necessary information I couldn't find any place else and helped improve my confidence. Great work!

Good resource to get your career in makeup started. Not so much for application itself, but more for the business side of professional makeup. Lots of useful info of setting up your business, creating your portfolio, what to look for in a school. etc.

I found this book to be very helpful. It's not really for the makeup application aspect of the industry although it does give a few pointers, but more so for the business end. How to market oneself as an MUA, how to get a job in various markets etc. I think this is book is excellent for that because not too many authors think about that portion of it which is also very important. The book mentions different schools one can attend to get training, most of which I already knew by reputation so the book is up to date. The cd that comes with it is very helpful too as it gives outlines and templates for invoices lists, pretty much the basics of everything an MUA would need from wedding jobs to film jobs. Buy this book, trust me you'll need it!

This book is very informative when it comes to the business side of being a MUA. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in this fun and exciting career.
