I’m currently doing the 3 week makeup course at NEMUA with Lisa and I highly recommend it. I have gone into makeup as a complete beginner to being able to apply full makeup, lashes and ana-lyse face shapes in only 2 weeks! I am so pleased I opted for the 3 week course as it has gotten really technical and I’m loving learning about the industry trends.. I don’t want to leave, Lisa is so lovely. I’ve already booked other courses at the salon so I can come back in the future.
