How much experience is necessary?
I've been told contradictory things, that you need a portfolio, that an art degree or cosmetic training is necessary or very encouraged, that working at another makeup counter for 6 months is preferable. And yet I have known people who to my knowledge had none of the above. So what is the deal, how much training, and what kind of training do you need to snag a job (because sometimes I can't help feeling that I know more than half of the workers at the store/counter)?
