When it came to looking into colleges my senior year, I knew FIT was a major contender because of the Cosmetics and Fragrance Marketing program \u2013 the only one of its kind in the country.<\/p>\n<p>I chose Advertising and Marketing Communications to focus on in my associates because I wanted a foundation in marketing before branching off into any other specific study. As I am about to graduate in May, I am proud to say I will be Embarking on my long-awaited journey into the CFM program for my bachelor\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n<p>Besides my undeniable passion for cosmetics and fragrance, I love that this industry is pretty much recession proof; looking and feeling good will never go out of style. It\u2019s no shocker the beauty business is a multibillion-dollar\u2014and growing\u2014global industry.<\/p>\n<p>In the CFM program, you learn both the product development and marketing aspect of creating and marketing products that women, and increasingly men, want to buy. There is a strong sense of hands-on experience in The Annette Green Fragrance Foundation Studio, which is the only fragrance lab on a U.S. college campus. There is also important\u00a0beauty marketing techniques and strategies in the classroom. With a focus on international economics, strategic marketing, visual presentation, and communications management, the program will prepare students for internships and future careers in this field.<\/p>\n<p>I am so excited to be able to evaluate fragrances, create cosmetic products and learn about beauty packaging design for marketing strategies.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions about my experience from associates to bachelors, leave a comment below!<\/p>\n<p>Melinda<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My absolute passion has always been beauty.
