I know for a fact that this job pays very well because I have many friends who are performance and theatrical makeup artists. I've even paid them for some work before and they weren't cheap. If you want a professional production, you have to hire them. It's that simple. With that kind of demand comes some very high wages. You do have to consider that you have to buy your own makeup, but that is often considered in the rate, or it's negotiated in the budget if something like heavy prosthetics are needed. Those things are not cheap, and they can take hours to apply.
The best places to work will be the East and West coast, though there are productions all over the United States. Still, you won't find quite the work you will on the coasts, though that means competition is also higher. The best ones can charge a great deal for their services, and those in the top 10% earn about $122,000 a year.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
