"Enrolling in the course at Icon school of makeup opened up so many amazing opportunities for me this year. While at Icon I learned so many important techniques and skills that I didn’t have before the course. The very talented trainers thoroughly taught the class everything from best techniques with particular brushes and products, colour theory, character makeup, wedding/special event makeup and character makeup. I finished to course with a large portfolio with quality photographs of each inspired look I created with a model. Since finishing the course, I’ve had so many amazing work opportunities. I’ve worked for FACON magazine for the Face of Facon runway competition. I have started my own makeup freelancing business and have freelanced for weddings, engagement parties, baby showers and special events. I’ve collaborated with photographers in a handful of wedding inspired photo shoots. I have met so many people in the beauty industry and the opportunities keep on coming"
