Hi make-up lovers,
A few years ago, I went to make-up school to learn creative & corrective make-up. I'm thinking of going back to learn air brushing. Do you think it's worth it to fork up ALL that money to learn at a school or do you think it's the same from learning on your own (via YouTube tutorials, reading, learning from others...etc.)?

I almost went down to LV to take the Airbrush lab class, why not kill 2 birds with 1 stone and party! =)

I have taken airbrush classes and I love them, nothing beats learning from the best. I'm working on going to some more.

@Nancei I was thinking the same thing with classes in LV, NYC, and MIA!! Haha
@glamourandgloss thanks for sharing ur experience! Is the equipment affordable? I was thinking of getting the airbrush set from OCD when they are at IMATS this year in my city. Are they pretty much all the same?  

The equipment is affordable as long as you take good care of it. The compressors are all going to be about the same minor differences, nothing huge. The biggest difference is going to be the gun you use. I learned on a more basic model and then once I really got the hang of it bought a real nice one. with all the bells and whistles. I'm glad I didn't learn on that one because it would have been too much. hope that helps!
