Makeup Training Academy Workshops
Makeup Training Academy Has Great Workshops To Suit All Career Stages
Are you looking to grow your skill as a makeup artist? Are there beauty services that you would like to be able to offer your clients, such as Airbrushing, Highlight and Contour, or Corrective Techniques? Workshops at Terri Tomlinson Makeup Training Academy are a wonderful way to get specialized training in a shortened amount of time. Our workshops focus on new techniques, deeper understanding or skill, and the business side of being a professional makeup artist. Workshops can be taken as “a la carte”, or in addition to our Professional Courses (Level 1-3).
Our workshops offer specialized and unique training opportunities in 1-2 day formats to small groups of makeup artists. All makeup workshops are hands-on with no more than 10 students at a time. This means that you’ll receive a personalized experience and the chance to practice and grow as a professional makeup artist.
MTA owner and instructor Terri Tomlinson brings over 30 years of experience to her students. Terri creates the curriculum for each workshop based on what she sees trending in the industry. Terri has a very hands-on, personally engaging education style and works individually with each student to help them grow as a makeup artist.
I took so much away from this class, I'm so excited for her to come back again and again again!
