I'm a recent cosmetology school graduate - I love hair and skin and makeup, beauty is deep and meaningful to me, but after graduating, I find myself so disenchanted and dispassionate. I was in science before this, and had been considering going back to school for it - the idea of cosmetic chemistry actually struck me briefly before I graduated cosmetology school as well but no one there seemed to have many answers for me. Seeing your videos on the subject have fanned that spark back to life - I feel passionate and excited, and like there's still hope for me to work with beauty, without giving up something else I really loved that drives me. Thank you for uploading all of this!

when you finish with chemical engineering do you need a separate degree for cosmetic chemist or when you graduate from chemical engineering you can become an cosmetic chemist right away?

Hi!! I’m in the UK and I’m currently doing my A levels consisting of Chemistry, Biology and History. I was wondering whether a degree of Biochemistry would be appropriate for a future job in cosmetic formulation? Thank you!
