Amazing course with hands on experience…
Amazing course with hands on experience on a variety of models. This course is wonderful, it gives you a foundation for makeup and allows you to be creative. Instructors are flexible and will allow you to model for assignments if necessary but will require you to have models besides yourself available, and to be successful in this industry you need to be able to have practice on multiple types of canvases. This is a self paced course, so be prepared for that but also be prepared to have support when you need it. For a general interest course, or to supplement your photography portfolio of just get the basics this course is wonderful building block to get your foot in the door as a MUA. If you're looking for something more comprehensive, check out a local school with a co-op placement but for someone looking to create, influence, or work on your own - this course ticks all the boxes! :)

Amazing course!
This course has been great and very helpful in my journey to learn more about makeup. Some photo demonstrations in the booklet are a little hard to follow and would benefit from having videos for all of them, but otherwise everything has been amazing!

All I can say is Wow
All I can say is Wow, I have learned a lot from you, the video's and all the tips gave me more confidence in my abilities to pursue my career and goals, I also learned a lot more on the finer details on especially stage makeup, and I would like to thank you for the opportunity. I will recommend the company to anyone, who's interested in learning the finer art of makeup, if they want to build a career or just for the fun of doing character makeup.

Glad I Enrolled at the Institute of Makeup Artistry
I'm currently enrolled in the online program at the Institute of Makeup Artistry. I'm very happy with the overall experience. The courses are jam packed with great information and it's a very well thought out and well rounded program. Student's are provided a nice back-end with which to manage their work, a relationship with one of their educators and an online portfolio. Overall I think IMA is a great opportunity to learn the art of make-up in a structured yet work from home, online setting for a very reasonable price.

The modules are jam-packed
The modules are jam-packed. I would recommend "upping" and redoing the videos. It seems to be old fashioned and very long, but it's an essential part of the course. Please make it fun to look at. I would also suggest email reminders and interactions, time goes by so quickly and then you end up having to buy a course extention.
Response from The Institute of Makeup ArtistryOct 30, 2024
Hi Marike! We appreciate your feedback and understand your concerns about the length and presentation of the modules. Our course is designed to be self-paced, giving students the flexibility to work through the material on their own schedule. While it can be completed in as little as 24 weeks, we provide 12 full months of access to ensure ample time. If students need more time, we offer affordable extension options to support them. As a self-paced program, we typically do not send regular reminders, but we’re always here if you need assistance or encouragement along the way. We appreciate your input on our videos and will consider your suggestions for future updates to keep the course engaging and enjoyable. Thank you for helping us improve!

MUA PRO course
I am currently busy with the MUA course and the past few months have been difficult due to health issues. I love the fact that I can continue at my pace and have a tutor available when I need assistance. The course format is easy to follow and what I love the most is that I am able to download the modules and print. So even if I do not have access to my laptop, I can still read through the material to practice
Response from The Institute of Makeup ArtistryOct 28, 2024
We appreciate your kind words and are thrilled to hear that you're finding the MUA course beneficial, especially during a challenging time, Denisha.

I love how easy the course was to understand. My only addition I’d add is to make an easier access to a student portal to talk to other students as I wasn’t able to make use of it.
