LA & OC affordable Pro. MUA Classes

[Celly]

I am a aspiring MUA. I am 23 and have two kids and I can't afford to pay thousands of dollars to attend MU Schools. So I have done some research and I have found a few schools that offer Professional MUA courses for a fraction of the price. I though this would be helpful for those of you who are on a budget like myself. Anyway enjoy!

I have taken 3 makeup classes at Cerritos and the teacher is fantastic! I was hoping to take her latest class thinking it was a new one but I see that she just changed the name.They are worth every cent!

Thanks for the feedback on Cerritos. I am hoping to get in the class that starts on the 15th of next month. I am number 3 on the waiting list so I am praying some more people will drop out.
