Hey dolls and guys, I'm start my makeup career from the ground up. I was wondering what should I stock my arsenal with and with what brands. I'm looking for quality makeup and reasonable to best prices. Now mind you this for a practice to make perfect for my training to become a professional MUA. So please give me some suggestions on what to buy. All replies are appreciated, thanks for the help in advance! :) Thanks again Will

I started off buying a Kryolan kit...fabulous! I love using Graftobian foundation palettes & added them to my kit recently

A lot of time & money can go into building a kit but this video by Goss MUA may give you an idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adALGRAEN3s

www.inmykit.com is a great resource for MUAs looking for affordable/high-end/pro quality makeup. I've found 3/4 of my favorite and HG items through that site, and it is def. an outstanding resource! Check it out!

I would say take ur time bulding up ur kit because as u go along u find more product to buy, so don't invest all ur money in a single brand...
try something from here and bit of there, I like NYX because they are inexpensive, but having some high end brands is really worth it like MAC, BTW starsmakeuphaven have some dupes for MAC's eyeshadows and they really are hella nice eyeshadows.
Try to go for 3 different foundation colors from very pale to dark( just make sure U can play with the foundation undertones), that way U can mix and match colors.
Always have a spatula and a palette to mix things up.
I think from there on just have different palettes to get ur clients desired looks.

Oh one last thing the 1120 palettes some of them tend to be a bit chalcky and if you over blend colors on this palettes they look muddy.

Hope that helps a bit :)
