Practice Structure

Demonstrate, then practise

Each week combines demonstrations with supervised practice sessions. Students work on models to apply what they learn immediately.

Tools & Products

We teach using professional brands (MAC, Kryolan, Temptu) and show how to adapt techniques for budget-friendly kits. You'll learn to sanitise brushes, sponges and tools correctly.
