Glam, bridal and editorial makeup — from skin prep to a portfolio-ready shoot.
Beginners; makeup artistry has no license barrier for most work in Florida.
You do not need to draw well or own a single brush — the course starts from face anatomy and product literacy. Students who already do makeup on friends get their habits corrected in module one and move to advanced looks faster.
Small groups, weekly starts. Leave your contacts — we will send the next date and syllabus.
The 24 hours run as three full days (10:00–18:00) or six weekday evenings. Every module pairs a demo with immediate hands-on practice; models are provided for the bridal block and the final shoot.
Makeup work is portfolio-driven: bridal is the anchor niche, with $150–350+ per bride typical in the Pensacola area plus bridal-party add-ons. Editorial and commercial work builds daytime bookings between weekends.
Freelance makeup has no single public salary median because most artists combine bridal, salon and content work; your portfolio and rebooking rate decide the number. The course is built around exactly those two assets.
Makeup application for compensation is covered by a Facial Specialist registration in salon settings; freelance/event work rules differ. We explain the exact boundaries in class and offer the 220-hour Facial Specialist path.
Bridal is the premium makeup niche — weddings book months ahead and bring bridal-party add-ons.
