Beauty & cosmetology schools teach makeup for daily wear. The type and application of cosmetics are different for photography & video. In fact, daily wear makeup often hurts the photographic results causing more retouching time. Makeup artists and models learn the products & unique contouring to compliment photographic lighting. Photographers learn what to request of the makeup artist, models or subjects to match the lighting and shot angles.
Why? Trained models can request and get higher paid gigs. How? By understanding simple posing angles, direction to turn for best lighting, how to create expressions and basic understanding of photography makeup. In short, you consistently make all photographer's images look better and increase your demand.
