Why are we underpaid?

Do you ever know that most of the MUA are underpaid?

We don't even underpaid sometimes we even don't get respect at all. We are willing to except tiny amount is because we love our skills, passionate about it doesn't mean we are Tom, Dick & Harry.

Life of a Make-up Artist in Malaysia

Make-up artist is sound creative and full imagination and some even think is glamourous if you happen to involved in some celebrities assignment.

THE LIFE OF BEING A MAKE-UP ARTIST

One of the biggest 'sad facts' faced by make-up artists is that we're often asked?" "Eh... can you do this for free-ah? Sponsor a bit lah... we have many jobs for you in future..."

You see here!! These people think MUA (make-up artist) no need to pay there're bills, get free petrol sponsor by PETRONAS, SHELL, ESSO, BHP . Even we go to Mamak stall we still need to pay RM1.00 for a roti canai and warm water for RM0.50 cents. We don't even get toll free..... and our phone bills.....

I always get calls from Magazines publisher they ask for free make-up service and they tell you: U give free lah so we will published your name there lor so people know is you lor. The most funny part is i don't even get a free copy which i need to folk out my own expenses to get myself a copy. I flipped it thru copy by copy and found my name was in a small small corner and almost need a magnifying glass to see my name there.
