Do I Need to Be Certified to Apply MAC Makeup?

MAC Makeup

When you think of MAC makeup, what comes to mind? Do you think of the iconic brand which has inspired millions of women to wear daring, bold makeup looks? Makeup artists love MAC Cosmetics because of its high quality and rich colors.

If you’re interested in becoming a makeup artist, you might be wondering about whether you need to be certified to apply MAC makeup.

MAC Makeup Certifications

MAC does not offer certifications to makeup artists. So, if you’re already working as a makeup artist, you can’t take a class to become certified in applying MAC cosmetics.

The company does have a program for students currently enrolled in beauty school or performing arts studies. MAC’s PRO Student Program is open at selected schools for students learning about cosmetology, esthetics, costume design, photography, fashion and hairstyling.

Master Classes

One of the benefits of the PRO Student Program are the master classes. Master classes offer makeup artist students the opportunity to learn about the latest MAC products as well as trends and new makeup application techniques.

Students have a chance to meet with the top makeup artists in the industry. They can ask questions and get hands-on experience in makeup application.

Exclusive Events and Networking Opportunities

Another benefit of the PRO Student Program is being able to attend exclusive events and having access to networking opportunities which would be otherwise unavailable.

MAC holds events with its senior makeup artist for students. They can mingle in an informal environment. Hairstylists, agents, models and performers also attend these events, making them a great place for students to forge invaluable connections.

Access to MACPro.com

MACPro.com is your go-to destination for everything MAC Pro related. The password-protected website offers information on trends, products, tips and events.

There are Q&As with industry-leading makeup artists, articles written by MAC artists and forums for students enrolled in the MAC PRO program. In addition, you can purchase MAC cosmetics.

Discounts on MAC Cosmetics

One of the best parts of being part of the MAC PRO Student Program is the discount on MAC cosmetics. You’re entitled to a 20% discount.

The discount is valid at MAC stores as well as select partner stores. All you have to do is show your card. If you prefer to buy your cosmetics online, you’re in luck – the 20% discount applies to products purchased through MACPro.com.
