Back in the 1800\/1900s, a career in cosmetics meant working behind a counter or a chair. Now, a career in cosmetics could take you all over the world filling so many different positions. The path you choose depends on you, your drive, and determination to perfect your skills.A Look into the PastThe use of makeup and cosmetics is not a new idea. It\u2019s been practiced well before any of us. Just look at the Egyptians! They used paint to \u201ccolor their eyes\u201d. The Romans followed suit and as the saying goes, the rest is history.Things jumped forward in the late 1800 and early 1900s. However, the way cosmetics were used was to show your state of class. Women that used light powder and deep reds were seen as upper class. The women that wore heavy makeup were looked down on and disrespected.When it came to careers, you had three options in the cosmetics world. Working behind a chair, working behind a counter, and if you were lucky, working in front of a camera. The options were limited and didn\u2019t have room for growth or any sign of progressing. Your state of class and color could stop you from even getting a job in cosmetics at all.Changes Needed to be MadeThings started to change during the ’60s and the ’70s. People from all across the country wanted better products and more job opportunities in the industry. A small thing to ask for, but was not easily given.
