Makeup Artist Interview Questions

"Employers are looking for makeup artists who are creative, attentive to detail, and excellent customer service providers. During an interview, expect to be faced with the kinds of questions that a customer may ask to draw upon your product knowledge, so make sure you have a list of your go-to products and know which the lines the company carries."

They just want to know what you know about their brand, nothing too difficult. I think the hardest part might be the makeup interview. They throw you a random scenario and you have a time limit to do the makeup accordingly. My region is very real, none of that superficial MAC stereotype. I made sure I made a mistake on purpose and then showed my customer (model) how to correct the mistake at home without ruining the rest of the makeup, because mistakes happen!
