If you are really serious about becoming a professional in the makeup industry, then this is the course for you! The Total Pro is the complete package and will give you the competitive edge over other makeup artists in the industry because you will be able to offer four skills rather than one. Many clients are looking for makeup artists who are qualified in more than just makeup. This keeps their budget down but means you can increase your fee as you are offering more than one skill. That’s why we have designed this multi-faceted course. It is suitable for the absolute beginner and will take you to an advanced level with skills in makeup, hairstyling, creative nails, and airbrush and covering all areas in the industry in high fashion, catwalk, bridal, and high definition makeup.
