I think it is when we did our final exam because you were so nervous. But it went really great and it was nice to see that one could complete it in such short of time as well.  The class “bodypaint” was also very fun as you were allowed to be really creative.

After the education I immediately got a job as a makeup artist for Esteé Lauder via Mariart’s agency. I have also worked with the brand Clinique. Right now I am working as a store manager at Makeup store.

Are you satisfied with your education and if you are, why?

I am very satisfied with my education because I learned so much in only 4 months. I enrolled in both the makeup and hair stylist courses and it was really intense but very fun and rewarding. The lessons were varied and you got to learn many different techniques and makeups. Because the education was also a bit longer you got a chance to find the direction which you liked. 

I am really happy that I chose Mariart and can wholeheartedly recommend this education.

What was the best thing with your education?

The best thing with the education has been all the different internship possibilities which the school has offered. Without the internships I am convinced I would not have entered in to the profession as fast as I did.

My internship as a assistant to Sarah Grundén for the making of Tove Lo´s music video Talking Body is by far the most enjoyable I’ve done professionally. It was really fun and incredibly teaching.

 

What is your strongest memory from Mariart?

One of my strongest memories is maybe not that difficult to guess – The first day at school, when you were nervous, tense and happy to finally get started. To then be given your own bag and go though all the products and hurry home to play and get a feel for everything was so fun. But the final exam is also an incredibly strong memory, because we went through all the creative tumultuousness and joy together.

It has been a positive response. A lot of students at other schools have envied us being assigned to so many internships and really getting a foothold in the industry.

It has been a great atmosphere and the facilities have appealed to everyone. In addition, Emité is a really good brand,  with products which are easy to work with and strong pigments.

How did you find Mariart?

I had long thought about educating myself to become a makeup artist and had periods when I searched the internet for the school I should choose. The schools I first found were nothing which suited my interest. When it was finally time to decide I sat down and read through reviews in different forums and noticed that Mariart was mentioned regularly and that everyone had positive things to say.  So I searched for the website and thought that everything seemed super serious and genuine.

 

Why did you choose to be educated at Mariart?

The reasons for me choosing Mariart was that I found that the school was more about being serious and genuine than screaming loudest and getting most students enrolled. Mariart comes a long way on it´s good reputation alone.  Also, I very much liked the idea of having different teachers in the different orientations which gave you an unbeatable wide-ranging education. The cost was also adequate for me, it seemed to be a safe choice in other words. It was also nice to be taught how to get started and managing your own business.

What was the best thing with your education?

The best thing with my education was maybe that everything was really meticulous. Everything from how one planed and structured to the makeup and how you implemented them.  Being meticulous with cleaning and tidying up afterwards also felt serious and professional.  Hygiene and cleanliness is something which I also carry with me from my time at Mariart and is something which is appreciated at my freelance jobs.

Which internship was the most fun to do?   

Rebecca and Fiona’s music video “Holler” is one of the most enjoyable things I have done.  To then get the chance to assist Elva Ahlbin has been both rewarding and a learning experience. Also my own work at “Sweden’s sexiest man 2013” with Veckorevyn is something that I remember fondly. The thing I am most proud of is my campaign-work with Resteröds which is on display at all JC stores in Sweden right now. 

What is your strongest memory from Mariart?

Besides all the class mates which you really got to know well, I especially remember my work at Viking Line. When I think of Mariart it is the facilities which first comes to mind, as well as all the classes we had where were gathered and got afforded so much knowledge. It was an exciting time!
