Read MoreThe Professional Makeup Artistry Course is delivered online, consisting of 12 comprehensive modules and 12 corresponding assignments. The course is designed to be self-paced. Normally you would expect to be dedicating on average about 4-6 hours per week for 24 weeks. However, many students take up to one year to complete their studies because of family or work commitments.

The course did more than teach me new skills and techniques. It brought me into contact with lots of new people, drew me back to the theatre and out into my local community after living overseas for many years.
