• Dermatologist

Believe it or not, the cosmetic dermatologist mapping your skin and helping you to develop a great skincare routine is a medical doctor. They specialize in skin, hair and nails. If you want to become a dermatologist, you need to have a passion for the extreme cases when it comes to your beauty needs. You should also know that it’s not all makeup and cosmetics; a strong stomach may be required.

• Eyelash Technician

Oh, those long, long eyelashes you add to your eyes before a night out need to come from somewhere. That wonderful person you see for yours before you go out and party has a career in lashes, and you could have one, too. There’s no need to go through years of beauty school, not when you can be on your way within a few days and the right certification.

The cosmetics industry is always in need of product and packaging designers who are able to keep up with the brands emerging into the industry. You can combine a love of cosmetics and beauty with your awesome skills at a computer.

Either way, you can open your own salon and spa and focus your passions where they lie. Whether it’s skincare and massage, haircare and hair masks, you can own it and be the one calling the shots!
