Just finished the SFX Makeup course

Just finished the SFX Makeup course. This was the most fun course I have ever taken. The instructional videos are very nicely done and the reviews on homework assignments were returned quickly and were encouraging and helpful. Any questions submitted were answered promptly as well. LOVED this course and fully enjoy doing this work!!

Easy to learn

At first, I was hesitant to participate for several reasons, the most important of which was distance learning, but honestly, the team was very cooperative and made me change my mind. Isabella was lovely I was impatiently waiting to see the evaluation of the assignment. I am not lying to you that you are going to be a professional, but I am sure that you will like what I do, believe in ur self more and they will put you on the doorstep of professionalism due to what it contains because it contains a lot of informations that I strongly recommend.

I am so pleased with my experience at OMA! I was so impressed with the amount of detail and professionalism that was offered. The instructors gave helpful and personable feedback. They know the industry and know how to give the feedback that is going to bring the makeup artist to the next level. I was also impressed that each time I had a question and emailed them, they were responsive and very kind. They did not act like it was an annoyance to email you back. They actually sounded like they cared. There is not enough good things to say about OMA! I feel like I have a real kick start into the industry and a certification to go with it! I am SO EXCITED!!

Loved my experience!

This course took me a few months to finish. I have a second one to complete but I would definitely but one at a time! I had the best time and I didn't know I could learn this much.

Great Course

I was very surprised at how good this course was. The tutors are very knowledgeable and professional, and I enjoyed learning about makeup application as well as how to conduct myself in a professional setting. I did the Master Course but might take the special effects class next. All in all, it was a wonderful experience.

Programs were offered to me and I'm thankful

I was offered the Master Makeup Program and the Advanced Makeup Program, and the Master Makeup Kit in exchange for an unboxing video, including a review.

I learned a lot from the classes, and even more from the personalized feedback from my tutor. She usually sent her video critique within 48 hours. When I emailed questions to her, her response was also as quick.

I've been in online courses before and I knew this was going to be "work," and it was. Don't think your time and attention to detail aren't required to get through this course. You will work for your certificate.

Something that caused me to raise my eyebrows is the Master Makeup Course and the Advanced Makeup Course, together, is the Elite Career Path Program. If you enroll in either the Master Makeup Program or the Advanced Makeup Program, the Master Makeup Kit is included.

If you enroll in the Elite Career Path Program, the Elite Makeup Kit is included. Even through they gave me both programs, which is the Elite Career Path Program, they sent me the Master Makeup Kit. Why is this important?

In some of the lessons and demonstrations they use certain products and say something like, "This will be in your kit." Well, it wasn't in my kit. Of course, they say upfront to use what you have. But, when homework assignments call for glitter, gold leaf flakes, and other products ... it would have been nice to have those items ... which are in the Elite Makeup Kit.

I tell myself both programs and the Master Makeup Kit were given to me, so in that sense, it wasn't a big deal. What Iearned was to be creative in using what I had to try and achieve the look we were to replicate for those homework assignments.

Regarding the Master Makeup Kit, the complexion products included aren't universal. Some products would not work on a complexion deeper than medium-tan. Also, the brush kit that's included isn't good quality.

My YouTube channel is Dion Luvs Makeup, if you like to hear more about my journey through these programs. I'm thankful for the opportunity to go through the courses and learn new things. I'm excited for where this experience will take me. The Elite Career Path Program does set us up for success, if you're dedicated and committed to doing the work.

Best online makeup school!!

I started this course a year ago, and I have just now completed the Basic Makeup Course. I still need to finish the Advanced Makeup Course. Although it took me some time, it was undoubtedly hard work. Balancing a full-time job as a staff nurse with freelancing as a hair and makeup artist was challenging, but it was definitely worth it! This course was a great investment, especially for a beginner makeup artist like myself. The lifetime access to the modules and the makeup kit from the OMA Campus are invaluable resources.

What I love about OMA is the flexibility to watch the modules anytime and anywhere, and the prompt responses to any questions. The course content is incredibly informative and comprehensive.

Thank you so much, Mariana, Yzabela, and the entire team at the Online Makeup Academy! You were all fantastic! I can't wait to start my career as a professional makeup artist!

what made my experience great has been the detail in the videos and reading the questions left by other aspiring MUA's. Being able to get those extra tips and tricks goes a long way when trying to get into this profession because you really have to have a creative mindset and the description and comments really help to open your mind.

Perfect Course for MUAs

I completed the Hairstyling Course for Makeup Artists and I'm so glad I did. This course gave me the basic and even some advanced skills I needed to be able to add hairstyling to my list of services. Nobody offered a course like this locally in my country. It's the perfect solution for makeup artists who want to add to their services. They definitely understood the needs of the students and included modules on styles that we are likely to create in our line of work. I highly recommend OMA!

I've been with Online Makeup Academy…

I've been with Online Makeup Academy for a few years now, and it's a great place to learn makeup. Their courses are really good and hands-on. You get one-on-one video feedback, which is amazing. The academy is in New York, so they know all the latest makeup trends. It's more fun and better than other online courses. There's a great community and the people are friendly. I definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to learn makeup or start their own makeup business.
