#Top 5 Makeup Schools in Europe

 

Most of today’s famous makeup artists love to say that the love for cosmetics was born, when they stole their mother’s lipstick for the first time. However, they have come a long, long way from that very moment to becoming a master. Just like any art, makeup apart from boundless enthusiasm takes years of learning and practicing. While YouTube is maybe a great place to start to get the inspiration, only a good makeup school, where you work with professionals side by side, can actually give you excellent knowledge and experience. Cabinet de l’Art rounded up five of the best makeup schools in Europe, where you can start your career.
