PhD is hindering career change

 

I have just finished my PhD. degree in 2013 and now still working as R.A. 

However, I found it is not security and I am willing to work in academia. It is necessary for me to leave this environment ASAP. At the same time, I discovered my interests, which sounds ridiculous and without any relationship to my "professional". I am digging in fashion and beauty industry. I would like to change my career into relative industry, eg. luxury retail sales, after the contract expiry. I am going to study professional makeup. I know it sounds crazy. I don't mind to give up my "professional" and have a new start. 

I try to search for a position. Lacking in relative experience and over-educated are the fatal flaws. Could anybody give me some suggestions, please?
