Developing Skills – Virtual Coffee

19 December 09.30
Join for a virtual coffee session designed for makeup artists!
In the fast-paced world of makeup artistry, we often overlook our own well-being while striving for perfection in our craft. Join us for a candid discussion on Self-Care and Mental Health in the makeup industry. This session aims to shed light on the physical and mental challenges makeup artists face, creating a safe space for open dialogue and support.
Makeup artistry is a rewarding yet demanding profession. Long hours spent standing, bending into awkward positions, and carrying heavy kits can take a toll on our bodies. Moreover, the pressures of freelancing in a competitive market can lead to mental exhaustion. Balancing well-paid gigs with passion projects, while continuously striving to improve our skills, often results in stress and frustration.
On the surface, our industry may appear glamorous, but beneath lies a reality that can be isolating and filled with challenges. Jealousy, secrecy, and a lack of support can make it difficult to navigate this landscape. Together, let’s break the silence surrounding these issues and foster a culture of openness and mutual support.
In this session, we’ll cover:
Physical strain: the impact of long hours and physical demands on our bodies.
Mental health: the emotional challenges faced in a competitive freelance environment.
Supportive community: strategies for fostering collaboration over competition.
And many more :))
