Cosmetician Reviews
What is it like working as a Cosmetician?
February 2023
Stressful / unfair pay for experience.
Cosmetician in Montréal:
Pros: i’m passionate about working in my field and learning about new products so i can share my knowledge with my clients.
Cons: the management style. we’re understaffed; so they throw a lot of the work on a minimal amount of employees and we aren’t even paid fairly. there’s a cosmetician who has less work experience than me & she’s making above $20 per hour, meanwhile i have 8 years of experience & im paid under $20 per hour.

Cosmetician.

Makeover Required For Personnel/Business Women.
Cosmetician:
Pros: Interacting with women from all fields of work, who want to be noticed. But, they are just leading normal lives that is amazing how they juggle their routine, to fit in work, raising their kids, and feeling happy about themselves.
Cons: Routine restocking of shelves, and scan-outs of empty stock items.

Cons: Sometimes there's change in management and having to get to know and adapt to a new person is stressful. The turnover can be frequent on occasion.
