Bridal Make-Up
This intensive practical bridal make-up course is designed to enable you to offer make-up for that special day. You will focus on the three main themes of bridal make-up and learn how to expand your existing make-up skills to create a flawless look, enhancing the natural beauty of brides in a professional and confident manner. The course includes theory and practical demonstrations, allowing you to experiment with different looks on brides.
Our bridal make-up course will show you how to apply make-up that looks great in photographs as well as real life. You will cover how lighting can affect the appearance of make-up and practice the art of highlighting and shading with corrective techniques.

We also outline how to build a professional portfolio of looks and images to help your brides choose their look and also discuss other services that may affect the make-up application and success on the day.
