Rawsome Beauty: Luck of the Pull or Within Achieve of All?

 I am new to blogging and upon discussing the content of my blog with a friend, they expressed their surprise that 'someone so academic' would be writing about a 'soft' subject like beauty. Now I wasn't at all happy at this remark. Not only is it one of my passions and the topic that my whole blog is based on, but I also have numerous friends that are employed in the beauty industry in some way. I have friends who are professional makeup artists, beauty December Global Holidays therapists, hairdressers and nail technicians. I also have friends who run their own franchised beauty businesses such as Avon. All of these people are smart, creative, passionate and highly trained professionals. And yet there are still those that doubt whether it is a worthwhile industry to work in or whether as a field of study it deserves respect.

The beauty industry in the UK alone employs over 1 million people. Despite a global recession in recent years, the beauty and cosmetics industry has increased its market share year after year and is predicted to be worth over $200 billion worldwide by 2017. That's far bigger than many other industries and is a figure that is still growing. Many women (and an increasing number of men) enjoy the confidence that using cosmetics gives them. Even in times of recession, there are plenty of us out there who enjoy looking our best and will still purchase makeup and enjoy beauty treatments at the expense of other luxuries. In fact, it is the view of many economists that the beauty industry is one of the few that is 'recession proof'. So if you're thinking about your employment options after leaving school or considering a change of career, the beauty industry is a good choice.

The beauty industry employs millions of highly trained personnel all over the world in various capacities. Cosmetic companies are constantly developing and innovating new products. To do this, they employ scientists known as 'cosmetic chemists' - this job alone requires you to have a university or college degree in chemistry or another related science. As well as learning about makeup and beauty treatments, an NVQ in Beauty Therapy requires students to have a knowledge of anatomy and physiology. Students study the workings of the human body - about the circulatory and lymphatic systems, bones and the skeletal system, muscles, the skin and conditions affecting the human body such as fungal infections. As well as this, students also study the business side of the beauty industry. I would hardly call that a 'soft' qualification.

Even to those who are not pursuing formal training in the beauty industry, there is still much to be learnt and to offer those with an enquiring mind. Makeup can transform your appearance and give a huge boost of self confidence. True beauty comes from within but when you know you look your best, it can make you feel so much better about yourself. Being able to apply makeup correctly, is a skill that I believe should be taught and encouraged. With skillful makeup application, a plain, 'blank canvas' face can be transformed into a beautiful work of art. A quick Google search of makeup artistry will show you just how imaginative makeup artists can be. They certainly deserve as much respect as other creative professionals are given such as musicians and fashion designers.


For a long time, individuals who perform in the beauty industry haven't always been given the regard they deserve in my opinion. Since it's maybe not regarded as a 'traditional' academic topic, it may also be terminated as a cozy, lightweight topic that doesn't deserve to be studied seriously. That requires to change. The beauty market is enormous and isn't going away any time soon. In the event that you act as a splendor skilled, give yourself a huge terry on the rear and be happy that you're employed within an business that helps countless women worldwide to believe small bit greater about themselves.
