Every class begins as strangers, but it’s incredible to watch how passion, creativity, and a shared LOVE of makeup bring them together. Our recent graduates of The Makeup Academy weekend program started with individual dreams and left with friendships that will last a lifetime.
Over the course of their training, they bonded over color palettes and contour techniques, supported each other through challenges, and celebrated every breakthrough. Their journey was filled with unforgettable moments — from meeting industry icons like the legendary @danessa_myricks , to everyday connections over lunch breaks filled with laughter and stories.
The experience culminated in a stunning final photoshoot where they showcased their growth and skill, creating flawless looks that reflected their talent and hard work.
Graduation isn’t goodbye. It’s a celebration of what they’ve built together — as artists and as friends. We are beyond proud of what they’ve accomplished and will miss their energy, creativity, and talent in the studio. 

Here’s to chasing dreams, making memories, and turning passion into a profession. Congratulations, graduates!

Sanitation Class and Certificate

EXCLUSIVE TO THE MAKEUP ACADEMY STUDENTS

Sanitation Standards online training teaches sanitation at a health-grade level. A health grade level means we mirror protocols that hospitals use to prevent the spread of bacteria, viruses, and blood-borne pathogens. This training supersedes any state mandates or cosmetology licensing. Unlike most sanitation programs or protocols, the training was created in partnership with a microbiologist. Microbiologists study microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, algae, fungi, and some types of parasites. They try to understand how these organisms live, grow, and interact with their environments. The training was designed for all learning styles, with interactions and videos as content delivery compositions.

INCLUDES:

  • ONLINE TRAINING
  • BEAUTY, SPECIAL FX & THEATER MAKEUP PROTOCOLS
  • CERTIFICATION*
  • PRESTIGE PIN*
  • ADDED TO THE SANITATION SPECIALIST DATABASE
  • DIGITAL BADGE*

 

*Digital Certification Badge—After successfully completing the training and the course feedback, your customized digital badge will be available once you exit the training.

*Certificate of Completion and Prestige Pin – Upon successful completion of the training, you will receive a Certificate of Completion and Prestige Pin.
