If you want to excel in make up artistry, you have to do more than just apply to makeup artist schools and attend a few classes. To really make the most of your education, get the most of your tuition money, and create the best possible career opportunities for yourself, you will also want to:

1) Really take part in your make up school’s activities, services, and options. Most make up artistry schools offer many student services and activities. Learn about all the programs your beauty school offers and make the most of them. For example, if your school offers a career fair, career counseling, free workshops or seminars, take advantage of these activities. They are there to help you make the most of your education and they give you a chance to learn above and beyond what you learn in the classroom.

2) Really take part in your classes. All beauty schools offer an array of cosmetology classes and courses, but how much you get from classes really depends on you. Rather than just sitting passively, take notes, take part in class discussions, and ask questions. This will help you absorb the material that you are learning much more effectively.

3) Do work outside the classroom. Instructors at most cosmetology schools are available outside the classroom as well. Take advantage of this fact to talk to your teachers after class. Ask them questions related to the class and ask them for recommendations of other books you could read and other ways you could build your skills. Most make up artistry teachers will have lots of good advice for you on improving your skills — all you have to do is ask.

4) Practice a lot more than you are required to. Most make up artist schools offer you some chance for hands-on training and practical work, but most make up schools will also give you more opportunities to hone your skills, if you ask. Ask your beauty school teachers for more opportunities to practice. It’s the best way to build your skills.

5) Gather evidence of your professionalism and style. Most make up artistry schools help you create a portfolio of your work. If your beauty school offers any workshops on portfolio creation or marketing yourself, be sure to take these. Creating a strong portfolio to prove your skills will put you far ahead of many beauty school grads.

6) Take the widest range of classes you can. Even if you have a specialized cosmetology field in mind, learn as much as you can by taking a diversity of classes. Even if you don’t plan on entering the special effects field, for example, consider taking a special effects make up class. If you work in a salon, that skill might come in handy in helping you understand all that can be done with the human face. The more you know, the more likely your degree will translate into a great job.
