FAQ

Certificates vs licences -what is the difference?

Unlike Hair Stylists and Estheticians, Make Up artists do not need to be licensed by the state to work in the industry. Certificates are awarded to each student at the end of the course as proof you have completed make up training. They are also needed to apply for professional make up artists discounts with many cosmetic companies

What is in the make up kit purchased for the 40hr intensive course?

Because of my connections in the industry-I am able to provide professional brand cosmetics to you at a steeply discounted rate. There are a variety of brands in the kit-but all are lines and products that are in my working make up kit daily. Kits include all the range of colors needed to make up any ethnicity and skin tone.

How many students will be in each class?

Generally there are 6-12 students in each class-this enables me to give individual attention to each student

Do I need to bring my own model for my photoshoot?

It is strictly up to you. If you have someone you would like to use as your model you may bring them in for the photoshoot on the last day of class. If you need help finding a model-I will provide you with one.

Do you offer financing for classes?

At this time I do not offer financing.

How do I pay for my class?
