Affiliate Program Opportunity Spotlight: Collaboration with luxury designer Beautiisoles

In the competitive world of fashion and beauty, aspiring makeup artists and hairstylists need not only talent but also the right opportunities to kickstart their careers. Michael Vincent Academy (MVA) understands this, and that’s why they offer a unique Affiliate Program exclusively for their graduate students who qualify for it. This program is designed to equip graduates with the practical skills and industry exposure needed to thrive in the world of beauty and fashion.

**The Affiliate Program at a Glance**

MVA’s Affiliate Program is a golden ticket to understanding how the beauty industry functions behind the scenes. It provides students with hands-on experience in working on set, preparing them for the fast-paced, ever-evolving world of fashion, photography, and film. By working with renowned brands and projects, students get a taste of what it’s like to be a part of the elite beauty and fashion industry.

**Recent Success Story: Collaborating with BeautiiSoles for a Lookbook**

One of the standout opportunities that MVA’s graduate students recently had the privilege to work on was a collaboration with BeautiiSoles. BEAUTIISOLES by Robyn Shreiber is a new collection of affordable women’s luxury Italian footwear that seeks to reconcile the often-fraught relationship between style and comfort.

By working on the set for Beautiisole’s Fall 2023 Lookbook, MVA students got the chance to showcase their skills by contributing to the creation of a lookbook for the brand, a project that not only honed their talents but also provided valuable exposure in the beauty and fashion industry. The students did both hair and makeup on set and the final results from the campaign are getting worldwide exposure as they are published on the brand’s website, social media, and retailer product spotlights.

Here are some key takeaways from this remarkable project:**1. Real-World Experience:** Through their collaboration with BeautiiSoles, MVA students had the opportunity to apply the skills they learned during their courses to a real-world project. This hands-on experience is invaluable in bridging the gap between the classroom and a professional career.

**2. Networking:** Working on a professional project allowed students to connect with industry professionals, including photographers, models, and other makeup artists. Networking is essential in the beauty and fashion industry, and this experience helped students establish meaningful connections.

**3. Portfolio Building:** The work completed for BeautiiSoles’ lookbook provided students with tangible examples of their abilities. A strong portfolio is crucial for landing future opportunities, and this project added substantial weight to their portfolios.

**4. Exposure:** Being associated with a brand like BeautiiSoles exposed MVA students to a wider audience. This kind of exposure can lead to more opportunities down the line as their work gains recognition in the industry.

The Affiliate Program at Michael Vincent Academy doesn’t just teach makeup and hairstyling; it prepares students for a thriving career in the beauty and fashion industry. The recent collaboration with BeautiiSoles is a testament to the real-world opportunities that MVA provides to its graduate students. As they continue to build connections, enhance their portfolios, and gain exposure, the possibilities for their future careers are boundless.

In the ever-evolving world of fashion and beauty, having the right start is everything. With the Affiliate Program at Michael Vincent Academy, graduate students are not only starting right but also setting themselves on a path to long-term success in the industry. This program is just one of the many ways MVA is committed to shaping the future of beauty and fashion professionals.
