This combination course gives you the opportunity to learn everything you need to know about children's make-up in a small group on two dates.

We start with the basics on the first day of the course. You will learn in detail which equipment is recommended, where to buy it and how to use it. On the second day of the course, you will apply the basic knowledge you have learnt and paint wonderful make-up designs for girls and boys under supervision. You will receive a detailed handout per course day with all the course content and practical step-by-step instructions to follow at home. You will also be provided with the necessary materials during the course.
