Dear Friend,
Are you a stylist, student or just someone that absolutely loves makeup who…
- Is self taught or “you tube” trained?
- Disappointed by the lack of training you received in school?
- Wondering why you can’t duplicate your makeup looks on different people? Are you just not quite sure what colors look best on different skin tones?
- Have you ever wondered how to get your makeup business started, or taking it to the next level?
- Do you know what essential items you need to create a makeup kit?
- Does it feel like you're spinning your wheels, trying every new trick you hear of to make your makeup business a success?
Then I'm really glad you found this page.
My name is Leslie Christin, and while many of you know me as the president of CARA Cosmetics, I want you to know the passion that drives my success.
From a very young age I dreamed of being a makeup artist, and shortly after High School I dropped out of college and decided to go to cosmetology school to become a professional makeup artist.
Much to my disappointment, I realized makeup was barely taught and the instructor’s makeup knowledge was very limited. I knew then that I needed to further my career and education on my own.
Through years of commitment, perseverance, wonderful mentors as well as being at the right place at the right time my career as a makeup artist thrived and evolved from working in a salon to print work, television series and feature films. To now owning my own makeup line and a makeup studio.
Now, it all sounds simple, but this took me years of trial and error (now remember this is pre internet days!) I spent tens of thousands of dollars and thousands of hours taking classes, flying to workshops and assisting other artists for FREE to learn and create a program to:
- Attract new clients
- Deliver quality services to my clients and my staff
- Stay competitive and current with techniques and trends.
- Understand and deliver what my clients need and want.
- Protect my reputation and clientele (This is very important! They can imitate me but never duplicate me!)
- Charge more than the competition and leave clients happy.
As a lifelong makeup artist, I understand what it takes to get your career started, what products you need and how to begin or further your makeup career. My biggest satisfaction and commitment is to see a budding artist evolve, thrive and grow.
As a lifetime makeup artist, I believe education is the
foundation to a profitable career.
In 2009 I hosted my first Business and Beauty Bootcamp. It was my longest most comprehensive seminar and it lasted 6 days, I had 22 people attend. My clients got such great results from my program—amazing self confidence and dramatic income increases—that word spread fast. So I have continued to host bootcamp classes in different parts of the country with students attending from all over the world!
By providing the best education, products and tools through our CARA Business and Beauty Bootcamp a successful career is achievable quickly. As a lifetime makeup artist, I believe education is the foundation to a profitable career.
Your key to success? Learn how to jump start your business
and technical skills with a down to basics hands-on course.
When I started to teach makeup classes , I attended many other training classes and saw how people were mostly teaching product related classes and very little technique or basic makeup artistry principals.
They taught looks and gimmicky TRICKS, but not how to analyze and personalize to the individual face...and never "the full process of makeup artistry".
It's so sad to still see how so many people offer makeup services without really understanding fully how to truly perform each service well. And continually buying makeup lines without having any success!
“This has GOT to be it..." they think—whether it's a passionate employee, the newest makeup line, the latest 6 hour class they just took -- and drop a ton of cash they'll never make back.
Why? Those are all good tools, but they don't work by themselves. You need a complete SYSTEM. And most importantly, a system that's designed for a business like yours.
And this is EXACTLY what I'm providing you in our 5 day business
and beauty bootcamp. You'll discover not only the art but the business of
makeup that will transform your current business into one that
gives you more profits, success, and satisfaction:
1. Convert your passion for makeup into an actual profit center.
2. Understand how to position your makeup services along with your knowledge.
3. Understanding and mastering retail sales following a system that can allow you to maximize your clients spending to double, or even *TRIPLE* your current income!
Student Testimonials
By completing this course I now feel like a true makeup artist and so very proud to say so. My confidence is a different level. Through this class I feel I have been given the knowledge to be able to analyze someone and be able to tackle anything…Taking these classes were, to me, the best investment of both my time and money I could have made to make me grow, not only as a person but a makeup artist. Everyone and anyone who wants the very best tools to succeed should take this class. You are getting the best knowledge and tools from Leslie and Lisa, the very best in the industry. Thank you for the incredible ride. Rob Smith—Cosmetologist & Makeup Artist
I just wanted to send you a letter of thanks, for all the information and insight I received from taking your class in Feb. It was a wonderful experience, jammed packed with knowledge. I'm so glad I went for it when the classes were available in Birmingham. Since I last saw you I got right to work getting my name out there on the internet, on the phone and lots of good old fashioned leg work…I actually got my very first job on a movie that was being filmed in my area just 9 weeks after completing my course with you. Since then I have worked on a pilot for a game show and just finished working on a movie trailer. Because of this experience I now am locked in with the busiest production company in my city. I'm having the time of my life and thoroughly enjoying my work. Who knew at 49 I would be having so much fun! Laura Lee Showalter—Makeup Artist
As a student at FCNH I had the opportunity to spend a day at CARA studio. Leslie took the time to educate us and share some of her tips and showed us how she custom blends her foundations. She also shared with us her passion for helping people who have suffered trauma and cancer and making them feel beautiful. I am a nurse and decided to become an esthetician and makeup artist to pursue my creative side. I also have a passion for helping others. Ever since I graduated I have longed to attend classes by Leslie. Attending this Beauty and Business Boot Camp has prepared me as a business woman. As well as providing me with the tools to improve my skills as a makeup artist while providing great service. My goal is to continue to improve. I will definitely be attending future classes that she has to offer. Karen O’Brien—Makeup Artist
I have to say this was such a great experience. Leslie is such a great makeup artist who explains everything so well that I was able to recreate some of the looks I wanted. The makeup line is great. I personally use it on myself. I would recommend anyone who wants to be a makeup artist to take her classes. Jeniffer Ibarra—Makeup Artist
Being someone with no makeup experience, I had no idea what to expect. This class made me feel comfortable with the CARA line. I feel like I've been provided with enough information to comfortably discuss with clients any makeup questions they may have regarding CARA. I am excited to expand my business opportunities and Leslie rocks! Michael B.—Makeup Artist
