Hey everyone! My name is Shannen && Im new to this whole thing. I would like some help in relation to MAKEUP, obviously.

You'll need to build up a Professional kit and a portfolio of your best work. You can start that now, even while you're still on your course.
What else kind of depends a little on the type of make-up you're getting into (special occassion/tv and film/print, etc) but mostly you need to find appropriate projects to gain experience, network and find potential clients. Like I say, it'll depend on what area you move into but those are the basics

Hope your course is going well!
