Complete Make Up Artist

This well-regarded course has been running for over 20 years, changing and adapting to the needs of the industry. Many of the leading make-up artists and Designers in the industry are graduates of Delamar Academy - they include Academy Award and BAFTA winners, as well as award-winning make-up artists in India and Japan.

The course covers all areas of make-up and hair required to work in the media industry, including Fashion, Period Make-up and Wigs, Bodypainting, Airbrushing, Facial Hair, Casualty and Special Effects, Character work, Basic Prosthetics, and Haircutting and Barbering.

All tutors are top professional make-up artists, hairdressers or prosthetics experts who are active in the industry, and their years of experience and passion for their work provides inspiration to the students.

Programme Structure

The Programme is divided into 14 weekly modules.
The first week starts with the basic fundamentals of make-up and develops throughout the weeks to an advanced level by the end of the course. This course is highly intensive and especially suited to students who are highly motivated and focused, such as those who are changing their career.

All full-time students receive a kit box full of materials to use on the course and a copy of the well-known text book "The Complete Make-up Artist", written by the Principal of the Academy, Penny Delamar.

We recommend that any students who are trained hairdressers already do not need to take the last 2 weeks of the 14-week course (Haircutting And Barbering) and may therefore enrol on the 12-week Complete Make-up Artist course.
