Makeup Artist Simulator: Play an Artist in a Real City, Free

How to play a makeup artist in LifeSim

Describe your makeup artist in the text box with a name, age, and specialty, like bridal, theater, or film.
Name a real city in your text, such as Los Angeles, Paris, or Seoul, to start on that real 3D map.
Use place search to find a real department store, theater, or studio lot and walk there.
Talk to clients, actors, and directors in your own words, and set goals on your daily to-do list.

A first week at a counter in New York

Elena, 23, works as a makeup artist at the Bergdorf Goodman beauty counter in New York City. She sets a life goal to book a backstage job at New York Fashion Week. On her daily to-do list, she writes "clean brushes with isopropyl alcohol" and "practice color-matching foundation".

On Wednesday, a busy fashion editor stops for a quick touch-up before a gala. Elena talks with her in her own words about skin undertone and baking concealer. The editor remembers the chat and texts Elena on Friday with a weekend invite. They meet for an outing at a café in Manhattan to discuss an upcoming photo shoot.

How to become a makeup artist in LifeSim

LifeSim has no career ladder, skill bars, or promotion screens. You start the job by writing it directly into your character description box. You can start as a student at Cinema Makeup School in Los Angeles or a veteran in London.

Real artists train at places like Delamar Academy in London or join IATSE Local 706 in Los Angeles. In the game, you build your reputation through your daily to-do list and open text chats. You edit your cast to add a strict department head, a photographer friend, or a nervous bride. Your cash and relationships change based on your chats and activities.

Life outside the studio and salon

Working on film sets or bridal suites means before-dawn call times and sore feet from standing. When the shift ends and you pack the kit, the rest of the city is open. You can use place search to find a real park, gym, or restaurant near your home.

Friends and coworkers text you on their own to start group threads. You can plan an outing with other artists in Cheongdam-dong in Seoul or go to a house party. Happenings appear on the map, such as karaoke nights, birthday drinks, or a grand opening.

What a makeup artist life looks like over years

Time moves one day at a time, and each night ends with a recap of your moments. In your twenties, you might work long film days doing last looks and checking continuity between camera takes. People keep a journal of past events and remember every promise or mistake you make on set.

As the years pass, your character ages through life stages. You can rewrite your goals to pivot from hauling heavy cases on movie sets to teaching in Paris. You might also do quiet theater work on the West End.
