So, I'm 35 and I'm thinking of going to school to be a makeup artist. I love makeup, and I think I do mine ok, not great, but ok. I love doing other people's makeup. My friends and family say I should do it because of the way I talk about makeup. Is it tough to make an actual living doing it? I would go to school to learn, and want to make sure it is something that you can actually survive doing. Any professionals have an opinion? I would love to hear how you did it, and if you truly enjoy it. Thanks! Any tips at all would help!
