Hi Ladies n’ Gents,
I wanted to compile a master list of cosmetic companies that offer pro discounts to makeup artist. Many of these companies require the following:
- Business Card
- Drivers License
- Website
- Cosmetology License, etc.
However, some ask for more industry related items which may include:
- Tear Sheets-published work (examples of this may be your name listed in the credits of a local magazine, local event, etc)
- Union Card (Yes Makeup Artist have a Union)
- Film or Television Experience- Meaning they want the crew list n’ you should be credited as the makeup artist on set
- Agency Representation, etc.
I hope these definitions help! There was a time when I had NO idea what a crew list was or tear sheet! N e who, there are a plethora of companies that offer discounts to Makeup Artist. When are are investing in your craft the makeup pro discount REALLY helps! I listed all that I am aware of. If you know of some that are not listed, please leave details about them in the comments below. I hope I helped someone jump start there career n’ start to invest in their passion.
