*This Master Class course is intended as a follow-on course for anyone who has attended our 1 Day Make Up Essentials training course or for those who have previously completed training or had experience within the basic principles of traditional make up application, to include knowledge of health, safety and hygiene essentials. The course is ideal for those with existing confidence in basic make up application, to allow you to get the most from the course and advance your skills.

This course is structured over one day and runs from 10am – 4pm. We ask students to arrive at 9.45am to ensure a prompt start. You will learn the theory of the treatment firstly, and spend the majority of the day practising your practical skills, with a short break for lunch.

We do not include any kits within our training courses, however we provide all products and tools required to complete the practical training on the day, at the training centre for you to use. We took this approach following student feedback so that students are not tied into specific kits or brands of products as part of their course fee, before they are trained and able to make an informed choice. Our training courses teach the generic treatment techniques and processes, they are not brand specific.

We recommend attending training where you will gain advice about different brands and suppliers to enable you to purchase products from your chosen supplier directly following your training. We do offer selected starter kits available to purchase through our website & supplied directly from the supplier to you by courier.

Our Celebrity Make Up course is perfect for those who already have a good understanding of basic make up application to include hygiene essentials and wish to take their application skills to the next level. This exciting master class course will teach you the advanced skills to create flawless long lasting make-up using airbrush make up techniques. Gain knowledge of basic camouflage and airbrush foundation application for a flawless base. Airbrush make up is hugely popular with celebrities with more clients now requesting this application method over traditional make up application alone (due to it’s many benefits including longevity of results, ability to flawlessly perfect blemished skin, provide coverage that does not block pores and provide a look that photographs excellently even with HD cameras).

You will also learn to create vintage make-up looks (with a demonstration of a modern bridal look) to suit the needs of a diverse range of clients. Iconic eye make-up techniques using liquid liner allow you to create stand-out make up looks for brides.The techniques can also be used to create make-up looks suitable for proms, black tie and work events.

For the majority of the course, you will be practising your make-up looks on each other adhering to a given brief, in-between observing tutor demonstrations. Our training centres are not brand-specific and there will be a wide range of make-up products for you to use and try during the training day. Once you have acquired the skills to work on a range of clients and briefs, this course allows you to you to begin working from home or mobile offering freelance make-up services.

Our diploma courses are suitable for complete beginners and do not usually require any prior learning to be able to train with us; many of our students are not yet beauty trained and are looking to start up a business in the industry.

A good command of spoken and written English is required to complete the course.
