Morphology
The meaning 'a person who gives advice about personal appearance/cosmetics' is directly and compositionally derived from combining 'beauty' (relating to appearance) with 'consultant' (a specialist who gives advice). The noun + consultant pattern is a transparent, cross-linguistic way to form a professional role, so a B1 learner who knows both words will readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
The compound beauty consultant joins beauty and consultant to show a person who 'gives advice' about someone's looks, especially makeup and skin. That's why it means 'a person who helps choose cosmetics and skincare'.
