What's New at The School of Professional Makeup



The latest news from Canada's premier makeup school - and introducing "Betty" the new girl at school!

Keeping up with the trends and techniques can make or break a makeup artist. As our graduates enter the industry they realize that there are different styles of smokey eyes, new trends in eyelining or taking makeup applications to the next level in Avant Guarde Editorial work. For all these reasons and many more, the School has developed new Continuing Education Segments (CES). These workshop-style classes allow students to improve on their techniques which compliment their already extensive training. Classes specializing in the various styles of The Big Smoke (Wet Smokey Eyes, Smokey Glitter) along with Lashes & Lines (working with different types of lashes, and stylized lining techniques) and Special Effects classes (Casualty, Burns, Gelatin Appliances and Zombies) assist a makeup artist become more versatile and experience in specific applications. These courses are conveniently offered on weeknights at the School. For more information on these programs, visit our website at www.promakeupart.com or go to our course calendar.

What's Hot - Rob's Pick

After a recent trip to Los Angeles to attend The Makeup Show, Rob came back with a bag full of new products. One of which quickly became his favourite...the new TEMPTU Airbrow (available at the School). This is an incredible tool to add to your airbrushing skills. Each kit contains a seven brow colours, five brow stencils and a freehand shaper stencil to create your own styles. It provides a flawless brow application and is HIGHLY recommended!
