Traditionally, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in cosmetic technology or makeup is linked to understanding the technical and chemical aspects of cosmetics.
The misunderstanding is to make a career in the beauty parror.
Perception has changed today with the cosmetics industry in India which grows multifold in the past decade.
The beginning

Deepak Wasule, Professor and Head, Cosmetic Technology Department, Lady Amritbai Daga (LAD) College for Women, Nagpur, said that Lad was the first Indian Institute to introduce a scholar in cosmetic technology in 1980.
“Master’s degree in courses was introduced in 1997 While students can choose a doctoral program from 2010 and so on, “he said.

Initially, the course was introduced as part of the Department of Home Science.
Ketki Misar, Assistant Professor and Head, Cosmetics Department of Technology, Kamla Nehru Mahavidyalaya, Nagpur, said that about five years ago, students from Bachelor (Cosmetic Technology) began to get a degree from the Institute’s Department of Technology and Technology.
Feasibility criteria
Wasule said that students who had done their XII class with a combination of physics, chemistry, and mathematics / biology qualified to submit undergraduate courses.
“We have an achievement-based entry to a four-year course.
Lad takes 30 undergraduate students and 15 teacher students every year,” he added.
Kamla Nehru has 40 seats for undergraduate courses and 15 seats for teacher courses, Misar said.
“Getting a Masters degree remains a popular choice for students.
This year, we got 36 applications to enter our master course, which was filled in the first day of entering,” he added.
Farhat Daud, a former faculty, the Ministry of Cosmetic Technology, Lad, said that there were several short-term courses available for cosmetic technology students.
“We are still not as far as the Western world, where students get the opportunity to take special courses such as perfume etc.
Some short-term courses help candidates who are interested in becoming a specialist they choose,” he said.
Combating misunderstandings
With only a college a girl who offers a course at first, the assumption is that the subject is oriented to a woman, Wasule said.
“From the fields that are believed to only deal with beauty, today’s cosmetics are more about health care, science, and technology.
Many joint education colleges have also begun to offer courses, gradually more boys are increasingly interested in the subject,” he added.
Mixed batch
Indian men suddenly woke up using cosmetics and personal care, which had made men interested in the subject.
“Previously, unisex cosmetic products, but cosmetologists have identified the unique requirements for men and women.
Thus, there are additional requirements for professionals to work on various product ranges.
This has led to an increase in interest in the field between groups of students,” he added .
“Batch batches have an average of 25-75% of male and female students.
In the past five years, the number of male students gradually increased,” he said.
Curriculum
Under undergraduate in cosmetic technology courses, students are trained in subjects such as anatomy, natural science, nutrition and occupy, skin therapy, entrepreneurial development, and personality development.
Placed
The need for increasing the skin care in a polluted world is to bring the arena of employment in the future, Wasule said.
“Many Industries Pharma, and the leading cosmetics industry, are part of our annual placement process.
They come to recruit for the role of managerial levels and officers in a large number of fields, including quality control and guarantees, research and development, production, marketing, and more , “Misar said.
He added that while many girls preferred career in research and development, boys tended to leaning towards marketing, technical marketing, and production.
Manufacturing, application (how to use products), marketing, techniques, technical marketing, legal, and clinical testing are other popular choices available for graduates in the field, added David.
Another popular choice is to become an entrepreneur.
“Students show the bend to open their own industrial units, where they have a voice over cosmetic formulas, raw materials (synthetic, natural ingredients, etc.), and even the production process,” Wasule said.
