The Introduction to Make-up is a short course that will give students a real insight into the fashion and make-up industry. The course was designed for students with an interest in make-up but who do not necessarily want to pursue a professional make-up career. On completion students will be able to create classic beauty, bridal and special occasion make-up. Further study either in a classroom or assisting a more experienced make-up artist, would be needed for those intending to work in fashion, film or celebrity make-up. On the course you can expect to learn highly useful, practical and professional skills that will give you a comprehensible idea on whether this is something you want to take further. For students who are serious about a fully skilled career in make-up we would advise you to take the Beginners Makeup Course for a more detailed and thorough training course.
