About the Course
The Intro Makeup Course is designed for anyone curious about professional makeup artistry. In 5 classes, you will learn 3 complete looks from scratch, each captured in a professional photoshoot. This course gives you a real taste of what makeup training is like, with hands-on practice, professional materials, and personalised feedback in every session.
Whether you are exploring makeup as a potential career or simply want to learn professional techniques for personal use, this is the perfect starting point. And if you decide to continue, every class counts toward the Basic Makeup Course or the Makeup Artistry Program.
Classes are small groups (max. 5 people) so we guarantee you personalised and focused attention from the teacher that you won't receive in big group classes in other schools.
Because of the amount of international students our classes are in English with translation to Dutch or Spanish.
