We believe it’s important to be a master in both areas to maximise your success.
Our business training covers important aspects such as social media presence, client booking abilities, company registration processes, insurance, and SO much more!

Do I Need Any Experience in Makeup Before Starting?
Most of our students have no prior beauty experience whatsoever!
The only prerequisite for our courses is a stable internet connection. We recommend using a large screen (tablet or laptop) for studying, as most of the content is video-based.
Are There Any Deadlines?
Nope! You’ll have lifetime access to the courses you enrol in, allowing you to complete them at your own pace. There are no deadlines. If you need a refresher or want to double-check your work, feel free to log back in whenever you wish.
How Does the Online Tutor Support Work?
Once you enrol in a course, your tutor will schedule a convenient time to call you, introduce themselves, and explain your next steps. It’s a great opportunity to get to know your tutor and ask any further questions you may have.
Can I Fail the Makeup Course?
Nope. The courses are all competency-based learning, which is a fancy way of saying they’re personalised and flexible. This approach allows you to study at your own pace without the fear of deadlines or failure!
How Do the Assessments Work?
Our courses include a mix of multiple-choice and practical assessments. Don’t worry, most of the assessments are practical, as beauty services are primarily hands-on. There are no written exams… yay!
Your tutors will guide you on how to submit your assessments correctly and will support you throughout the process.
Do I Have to Travel Anywhere to Become Qualified?
No, you don’t. You can be anywhere in the world! All assessments are conducted online, allowing you to earn your accredited makeup qualification from the comfort of your home.
I Haven't Studied Anything in a Long Time... Will I Receive Help?
Don’t worry, many students feel the same way. You’re not alone! Your tutors are there for you every step of the way, and there’s no pressure from us.
You’ll be able to arrange live 1-1 coaching with your assigned makeup tutor, who can quickly troubleshoot any issues you’re facing.
This close tutoring support is something unique we offer in the industry!
Take your time, relax, and have fun! You can re-sit the assessments as many times as you like, free of charge, until you feel confident.
