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 three-day Professional Make Up Artist training course is designed for complete beginners who have a keen interest in make-up, who are seeking career opportunities within this exciting industry. During the training, you will learn a range of techniques which will enable you to offer special occasion / bridal and photographic make-up services to clients. The course will introduce you to the skills of creating a flawless base and airbrushed finish, through to creating a timeless red carpet glamour look suitable for proms, black tie & work events. Learn the iconic smokey eye look and ombre lips for a captivating and seductive effect. Enhance the flawless base with skin sculpting to add definition, light and dimension to facial contours.

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. We are not brand-specific and we have a wide range of make-up products for you to use.

Our diploma courses are suitable for complete beginners and do not 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. We welcome students of all abilities, whether you are looking to learn a new skill from scratch or currently working as a therapist and looking to refresh your knowledge of particular treatments.

Students will give and receive treatments as part of this course, with students working upon each other so no models are required. All products and tools are provided for the training days at the centre when you attend. No kit is required to complete this training course, nor included in the course fee. On the training days, you only need to bring a hand towel for your personal use, completed enrolment form and cold food for your lunch (e.g. sandwich/salad). Tea & coffee are provided.

  1. Love this course so much!

    :

    I did this course on three separate occasions instead of on three consecutive days (I recommend the latter) and it was the most fun I’ve had doing a course in a long time. The tutors are all experts and very friendly and welcoming so if you feel nervous, do not worry as they quickly put your mind at ease. You also receive learning materials before your practical and these will assist your learning on the day. The environment is relaxed – there’s music on in the background and you have the chance to get to know the other students and practice on them too! I recommend this course to anyone interested in make-up., its also an accredited qualification!The location is also fantastic, not even a 10 minute walk from Kings Cross/St Pancras Intl station. Book this course, you will not be disappointed!
