Depending on the class you’re enrolled in you received different products. For sure, u’ll receive basics – brushes,eyeshadows, blushes, lipsticks, foundation of different shades…yes, you’ll probably have to get more sponges, brush cleaner or eyeshadow/other makeup productss of ur own preference

Sorry for the late reply. I think you should still continue doing your program in University. I’m a firm believer that women should have as many skills and knowledge as possible, and having a degree would definitely help you to get a job. Moving to Canada for a makeup school is a lot of commitment, time and money. Again, from my experience Complections is a good school, however some people may not think the same as me. The instructors change quite often since they also work in the industry, so your experience might not be the same as mine or might be even better. If you’re still unsure due to the big commitment that you have to make, I’d suggest taking perhaps a basic course in Puerto Rico first and see if you like it.

Do your friends’ makeup and see how you feel about it. The makeup industry is a very demanding and at the same time competitive. Fashion makeup doesn’t really pay much, there’s a lot of volunteer works or free works that you have to do before you can make it big. It is a very competitive industry. On the other side, if you do get a job and start making great connections, you can land jobs easily. Film industry does pay a lot. My ex-classmate from Mexico is now doing a lot of Film makeup job in Mexico.

Hope this helps.

I am from Puerto Rico and currently studying in a university the thing is that I’m starting to think that it is not for me. I have always loved make-up but never looked at it as a career I should pursue but right now it is all I can think about. The research up until now has been a bit disappointing since I can’t find a school I truly feel that spark of going to study there. Canada for me is a bit overwhelming because I have never been there but if Complections is as good as it appears I surely wouldn’t mind.

Is OSAP one of the main options?

I’m not sure about SOMA. However, I know a few people who went there and had positive experience. Sorry! :(

Thanks for this review. Wanted to ask if you know of any feedback/reviews on The School of Makeup Art, also in Toronto? Am I right to assume that Complections and SOMA are the top 2 schools for makeup artistry in Toronto? Thanks for your help!

Leah

If you go to other school, you will still be required to practice on each other. This is quite basic for makeup school. Your face is not a “tester”. Your face is a canvas for others and yourself to practice. At Complections, though, the makeup that they used is by a brand called CoverFx which is a line made for sensitive skin, and a skincare line called Dermalogica. I have to be honest, after attending Complections my face didn’t get worse (surprisingly). You’re required to remove makeup before practice so that others have the same chance as you when practicing for foundation.
